Vitamin C levels

SNRPF · rs117885456

What the study found

Who was studied 52,018 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.078 higher (95% confidence interval 0.054-0.102); p = 2 × 10−11.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12q23.1 — in an intron of SNRPF-DT.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs117885456

What is rs117885456?

rs117885456 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SNRPF gene. Published research associates it with vitamin c levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs117885456 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 rs117885456 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Diabetes care 2021, PMID:33203707. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
