What the study found

Who was studied 449,734 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 248,098 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0543 lower (95% confidence interval 0.043-0.066); p = 2 × 10−19.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 98% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7q22.1 — in an intron of FBXL13.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs76187115

What is rs76187115?

rs76187115 is a single position in the genome, in or near the FBXL13 gene. Published research associates it with chronotype. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs76187115 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 rs76187115 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2019, PMID:30696823. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
