What the study found

Who was studied 253,288 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 80,067 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.061 lower (95% confidence interval 0.051-0.071); p = 2 × 10−41.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 13% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8q12.1 — between genes, 24.2 kb from CHCHD7.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs9650315

What is rs9650315?

rs9650315 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CHCHD7 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.

What conditions is rs9650315 linked to?

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

Does having rs9650315 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 rs9650315 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2014, PMID:25282103. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
