CCDC12 · rs78580841

What the study found

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

The effect The reported allele is T; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 3 × 10−11.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 7% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3p21.31 — in an intron of CCDC12.

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 rs78580841

What is rs78580841?

rs78580841 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CCDC12 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 rs78580841 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 rs78580841 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.
