Who was studied 148,726 European ancestry cases, 965,732 European ancestry controls.
The effect
Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.055 higher (95% confidence interval 0.038-0.072); p = 3 × 10−10.
How common The G allele had a frequency of about 92% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17q21.32 — in a non-coding transcript of NFE2L1-DT.
What each result means
C/CPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Type 2 diabetes — no copies of the reported risk allele.
C/GPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Type 2 diabetes.
G/GPublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Type 2 diabetes compared to the general population.

Questions about rs9900074
What is rs9900074?
rs9900074 is a single position in the genome, in or near the NFE2L1-DT gene. Published research associates it with type 2 diabetes. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs9900074 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Type 2 Diabetes. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs9900074 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 rs9900074 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2020, PMID:32541925. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
