Self-reported risk-taking behaviour

ZBTB10 · rs7817124

What the study found

Who was studied 113,882 European ancestry cases, 322,354 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele carried 1.03 times the odds of Self-reported risk-taking behaviour (95% confidence interval 1.020-1.039); p = 6 × 10−10.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 24% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8q21.13 — in an intron of ZBTB10.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Self-reported risk-taking behaviour. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/G One copy of the version the research linked to Self-reported risk-taking behaviour. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Self-reported risk-taking behaviour. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs7817124

What is rs7817124?

rs7817124 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ZBTB10 gene. Published research associates it with self-reported risk-taking behaviour. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7817124 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 rs7817124 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Commun Biol 2018, PMID:30271922. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
