AHCYL2 · rs112189569
Where this position leads
Drug: Fenofibrate
Strength of the evidence
Its strongest genetic-study result is p = 10−8, with 1 associations in the GWAS Catalog.
4: ClinVar disease-causing, reviewed by an expert panel or a guideline (3–4 stars). 3: ClinVar, several labs agreeing (2 stars), or a genetic study at p ≤ 10−50. 2: ClinVar from one lab (1 star), or p ≤ 10−20. 1: ClinVar submitted without criteria (0 stars), or genome-wide significance (p ≤ 5×10−8). The higher of the two counts. It says how solid the evidence is, not whether it matters for a particular person.
What the study found
Who was studied 12 Silk Road (founder/genetic isolate) cases, 508 Silk Road (founder/genetic isolate) controls.
The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.189 lower (95% confidence interval 0.13-0.25); p = 2 × 10−8.
How common The C allele had a frequency of about 98% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7q32.1 — in an intron of AHCYL2.
rs112189569 is a single position in the genome, in or near the AHCYL2 gene. Published research associates it with color vision defects (tritan). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
AHCYL2 carries pharmacogenomic findings for Fenofibrate. That is educational information, not a prescription or a dosing guide. Any decision to start, stop or change a medicine belongs with the clinician or pharmacist managing your treatment.
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.
