LOC101927630 · rs73073176

What the study found

Who was studied 335,909 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 39,924 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.023 higher (95% confidence interval 0.019-0.027); p = 2 × 10−25.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 87% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7p21.1 — in an intron of LINC02889.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Coffee consumption. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Coffee consumption. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Coffee consumption. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs73073176

What is rs73073176?

rs73073176 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LOC101927630 gene. Published research associates it with coffee consumption. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs73073176 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 rs73073176 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Human molecular genetics 2019, PMID:31046077. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
