What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Height compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Nature 2010, PMID:20881960)
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Height. (GWAS Catalog, Nature 2010, PMID:20881960)
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Height — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Nature 2010, PMID:20881960)

Questions about rs7926971

What is rs7926971?

rs7926971 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TEAD1 gene. Published research associates it with height. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7926971 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 rs7926971 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature 2010, PMID:20881960. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
