Univariate microbial feature (asv: asv002) at the forehead (sebaceous skin)

CFAP54 · rs12423627

What the study found

Who was studied 597 German ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.653 higher (95% confidence interval 0.43-0.87); p = 7 × 10−9.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 93% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12q23.1 — in an intron of CFAP54.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Univariate microbial feature (asv: asv002) at the forehead (sebaceous skin). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Univariate microbial feature (asv: asv002) at the forehead (sebaceous skin). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Univariate microbial feature (asv: asv002) at the forehead (sebaceous skin). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs12423627

What is rs12423627?

rs12423627 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CFAP54 gene. Published research associates it with univariate microbial feature (asv: asv002) at the forehead (sebaceous skin). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs12423627 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 rs12423627 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2022, PMID:36261456. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
