Who was studied 434,794 European ancestry female individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0344 higher (95% confidence interval 0.026-0.043); p = 7 × 10−16.
How common The C allele had a frequency of about 4% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 14, band 14q12 — in an intron of PRKD1.
What each result means
C/CTwo copies of the version the research linked to Body mass index. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/GOne copy of the version the research linked to Body mass index. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/GNo copy of the version the research linked to Body mass index. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs8016859
What is rs8016859?
rs8016859 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PRKD1 gene. Published research associates it with body mass index. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs8016859 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Waist-to-Hip Ratio (Body Fat Distribution), Obesity and Body Weight. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs8016859 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 rs8016859 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Hum Mol Genet 2018, PMID:30239722. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
