What the study found

Who was studied 542,901 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0611 lower (95% confidence interval 0.042-0.08); p = 3 × 10−10.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 68% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1q32.2 — in an intron of SYT14.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Age at first birth. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Age at first birth. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Age at first birth. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs7516843

What is rs7516843?

rs7516843 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SYT14 gene. Published research associates it with age at first birth. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7516843 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 rs7516843 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature human behaviour 2021, PMID:34211149. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
