ALG10 · rs9705901

What the study found

Who was studied 252,287 European ancestry cases, 150,908 European ancestry controls; replicated in 120,478 European ancestry cases, 127,622 European ancestry controls.

The effect The reported allele is C; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 7 × 10−28.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 41% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12p11.1 — between genes, 173.5 kb from AK6P1.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Morning person. 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 Morning person. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Morning person. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs9705901

What is rs9705901?

rs9705901 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ALG10 gene. Published research associates it with morning person. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs9705901 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 rs9705901 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2019, PMID:30696823. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
