near LINC00554 · rs9517948

What the study found

Who was studied 447,401 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0131 lower (95% confidence interval 0.009-0.0173); p = 3 × 10−10.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 55% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 13, band 13q32.3 — between genes, 0.5 kb from LINC00554.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs9517948

What is rs9517948?

rs9517948 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near LINC00554 gene. Published research associates it with fresh fruit consumption. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs9517948 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 rs9517948 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2020, PMID:32193382. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
