near LRPPRC · rs75199129

What the study found

Who was studied 972,915 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0328 lower (95% confidence interval 0.022-0.043); p = 2 × 10−9.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 4% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2p21 — between genes, 35.7 kb from LOC124907757.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Problematic alcohol use (MTAG). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/T One copy of the version the research linked to Problematic alcohol use (MTAG). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Problematic alcohol use (MTAG). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs75199129

What is rs75199129?

rs75199129 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near LRPPRC gene. Published research associates it with problematic alcohol use (mtag). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs75199129 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 rs75199129 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Neurosci 2020, PMID:32451486. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
