RBC levels of (7Z-10Z-13Z-16Z-19Z)-Docosa-7-10-13-16-19-pentaenoic acid

MICAL2 · rs10831781

What the study found

Who was studied 243 individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 1.09 lower (95% confidence interval 0.74-1.44); p = 2 × 10−9.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 94% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11p15.3 — in an intron of MICAL2.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to RBC levels of (7Z-10Z-13Z-16Z-19Z)-Docosa-7-10-13-16-19-pentaenoic acid. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to RBC levels of (7Z-10Z-13Z-16Z-19Z)-Docosa-7-10-13-16-19-pentaenoic acid. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to RBC levels of (7Z-10Z-13Z-16Z-19Z)-Docosa-7-10-13-16-19-pentaenoic acid. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs10831781

What is rs10831781?

rs10831781 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MICAL2 gene. Published research associates it with rbc levels of (7z-10z-13z-16z-19z)-docosa-7-10-13-16-19-pentaenoic acid. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs10831781 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 rs10831781 come from?

GWAS Catalog, The Journal of biological chemistry 2022, PMID:36395887. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
