Blood X-12753 levels

ALMS1 · rs111845822

What the study found

Who was studied 4,759 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.53 higher (95% confidence interval 0.37-0.69); p = 3 × 10−11.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 9% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2p13.1 — in an intron of ALMS1.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Blood X-12753 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 X-12753 levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Blood X-12753 levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs111845822

What is rs111845822?

rs111845822 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ALMS1 gene. Published research associates it with blood x-12753 levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs111845822 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 rs111845822 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Genome biology 2026, PMID:42426908. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
