What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Liver enzyme levels (alanine transaminase) compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2011, PMID:22001757)
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Liver enzyme levels (alanine transaminase). (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2011, PMID:22001757)
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Liver enzyme levels (alanine transaminase) — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2011, PMID:22001757)

Questions about rs6834314

What is rs6834314?

rs6834314 is a single position in the genome, in or near the HSD17B13 gene. Published research associates it with liver enzyme levels (alanine transaminase). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What do people read about alongside rs6834314?

Subjects that appear in the title or abstract of the same papers as this rsID include liver (4 papers). A shared paper means somebody wrote about the two together; it is not a claim that this position explains the topic.

Does having rs6834314 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 rs6834314 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2011, PMID:22001757. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
