Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily E member 2 levels (KCNE2.10427.2.3)

near IGHEP1 · rs71426155

What the study found

Who was studied 3,301 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.79 higher (95% confidence interval 0.73-0.85); p = 9 × 10−210.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 64% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 14, band 14q32.33 — between genes, 3.9 kb from IGHEP1.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily E member 2 levels (KCNE2.10427.2.3). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/G One copy of the version the research linked to Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily E member 2 levels (KCNE2.10427.2.3). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily E member 2 levels (KCNE2.10427.2.3). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs71426155

What is rs71426155?

rs71426155 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near IGHEP1 gene. Published research associates it with potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily e member 2 levels (kcne2.10427.2.3). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs71426155 mean I will get this?

No. Common variants like this one move a probability slightly and, on their own, rarely decide anything about one person. Nothing on this page is a diagnosis, and health decisions should be made with a clinician who can see your whole picture.

Where does the information about rs71426155 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature 2018, PMID:29875488. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
