What the study found

Who was studied 321,047 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 79,005 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0264 higher (95% confidence interval 0.022-0.031); p = 2 × 10−27.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 37% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q12.3 — at a splice region of EML3.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of FEV1 compared to the general population.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with FEV1.
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of FEV1 — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs71490394

What is rs71490394?

rs71490394 is a single position in the genome, in or near the EML3 gene. Published research associates it with fev1. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs71490394 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 rs71490394 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2019, PMID:30804560. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
