Who was studied 13,685 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 15,854 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 1.23 msec higher (95% confidence interval 0.88-1.57); p = 5 × 10−15.
How common The T allele had a frequency of about 49% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16p13.13 — in a regulatory region of LITAF.
What each result means
C/CNo copy of the version the research linked to QT interval. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/TOne copy of the version the research linked to QT interval. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/TTwo copies of the version the research linked to QT interval. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs8049607
What is rs8049607?
rs8049607 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LITAF gene. Published research associates it with qt interval. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs8049607 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to QT Interval and Drug-Induced Long QT. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs8049607 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 rs8049607 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2009, PMID:19305408. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
