CHUK · rs11597390

What the study found

Who was studied 7,751 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 1,005 European ancestry individuals, 3,669 Asian Indian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.04 U/L lower (95% confidence interval 0.025-0.053); p = 2 × 10−8.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 36% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10q24.31 — between genes, 4.1 kb from CYP2C23P.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs11597390

What is rs11597390?

rs11597390 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CHUK gene. Published research associates it with liver enzyme levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs11597390 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 rs11597390 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Am J Hum Genet 2008, PMID:18940312. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
