What the study found

Who was studied 115,486 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.133 higher (95% confidence interval 0.089-0.177); p = 2 × 10−8.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 89% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 13, band 13q14.11 — in the 3′ untranslated region of KBTBD6-DT.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Intraocular pressure. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Intraocular pressure. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Intraocular pressure. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs7982779

What is rs7982779?

rs7982779 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LOC101929140 gene. Published research associates it with intraocular 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 rs7982779 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Glaucoma. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs7982779 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 rs7982779 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Hum Mol Genet 2018, PMID:29617998. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
