Who was studied 380,506 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 7.53 z score lower; p = 5 × 10−14.
How common The A allele had a frequency of about 40% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q22.3 — between genes, 62.1 kb from ACVR2A.
What each result means
A/ATwo copies of the version the research linked to Neurociticism. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/GOne copy of the version the research linked to Neurociticism. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/GNo copy of the version the research linked to Neurociticism. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs998884
What is rs998884?
rs998884 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near ACVR2A gene. Published research associates it with neurociticism. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs998884 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Irritable Mood. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs998884 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 rs998884 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2018, PMID:29500382. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
