Vertical cup-disc ratio

FOXP1 · rs77877421

What the study found

Who was studied 65,680 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0116 lower (95% confidence interval 0.0087-0.0145); p = 2 × 10−15.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 94% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3p13 — in an intron of FOXP1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs77877421

What is rs77877421?

rs77877421 is a single position in the genome, in or near the FOXP1 gene. Published research associates it with vertical cup-disc ratio. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs77877421 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 rs77877421 come from?

GWAS Catalog, American journal of human genetics 2021, PMID:34077760. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
