near LINC02967 · rs76785229

What the study found

Who was studied 2,935 Qatari ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.459 lower (95% confidence interval 0.36-0.56); p = 3 × 10−20.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 8% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 20, band 20p11.21 — between genes, 62.4 kb from LINC02967.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Cystatin-F levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Cystatin-F levels.
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Cystatin-F levels compared to the general population.

Questions about rs76785229

What is rs76785229?

rs76785229 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near LINC02967 gene. Published research associates it with cystatin-f levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs76785229 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 rs76785229 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Human molecular genetics 2023, PMID:36168886. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
