N-acetylkynurenine (2) levels

AFMID · rs112281307

What the study found

Who was studied 14,296 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 5,698 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.215 lower (95% confidence interval 0.17-0.26); p = 1 × 10−23.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 90% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17q25.3 — in an intron of AFMID.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to N-acetylkynurenine (2) levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/C One copy of the version the research linked to N-acetylkynurenine (2) levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
C/C No copy of the version the research linked to N-acetylkynurenine (2) levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs112281307

What is rs112281307?

rs112281307 is a single position in the genome, in or near the AFMID gene. Published research associates it with n-acetylkynurenine (2) levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs112281307 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 rs112281307 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature medicine 2022, PMID:36357675. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
