SARDH · rs111389997

What the study found

Who was studied 22,912 Caucasian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 12.1 (zscore) higher; p = 6 × 10−34.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 84% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 9, band 9q34.2 — in an intron of SARDH.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Sarcosine levels. 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 Sarcosine levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Sarcosine levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs111389997

What is rs111389997?

rs111389997 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SARDH gene. Published research associates it with sarcosine levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs111389997 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 rs111389997 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2021, PMID:33414548. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
