What the study found

Who was studied 313,125 European ancestry individuals, 5,568 African ancestry individuals, 6,693 South Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0254 higher (95% confidence interval 0.02-0.031); p = 1 × 10−21.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q24.3 — in the 3′ untranslated region of CERS6-AS1.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Blood glucose levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Blood glucose levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Blood glucose levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs1063729

What is rs1063729?

rs1063729 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CERS6-AS1 gene. Published research associates it with blood glucose levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs1063729 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Gout. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs1063729 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 rs1063729 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2021, PMID:33462484. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
