C/CPublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Systolic blood pressure compared to the general population.
C/TPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Systolic blood pressure.
T/TPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Systolic blood pressure — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs76987554
What is rs76987554?
rs76987554 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TARID gene. Published research associates it with systolic blood pressure. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs76987554 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Blood Pressure. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs76987554 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 rs76987554 come from?
GWAS Catalog, PLoS Genet 2017, PMID:28498854. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
