The SNP is a synonymous substitution located in exon 1 of the gene where it is involved in coding the 34th amino acid as serine.<ref>{{Cite web | url = https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/variation/view/?q=3356[geneid] | title = SNP linked to Gene HTR2A | publisher = NCBI }}</ref>

As 5-HT<sub>2A</sub> is a neuroreceptor the SNP has been investigated in connection with brain functions and neuropsychiatric disorders, and it is perhaps the most investigated SNP for its gene. Two other SNPs in HTR2A have also received much attention: rs6311 and His452Tyr (rs6314). The T102C polymorphism has been shown to be in complete linkage disequilibrium with the rs6311 (A-1438G). <ref> {{cite journal |last1 = Saiz |first1 = Pilar A. |last2 = Garcia-Portilla |first2 = Maria P. |last3 = Paredes |first3 = Begoña |last4 = ....
