Alkaline phosphatase levels

ALPL · rs1256332

What the study found

Who was studied 153,950 Korean ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0996 higher (95% confidence interval 0.091-0.108); p = 2 × 10−112.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 15% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p36.12 — in an intron of ALPL.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs1256332

What is rs1256332?

rs1256332 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ALPL gene. Published research associates it with alkaline phosphatase levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs1256332 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 rs1256332 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2025, PMID:40436827. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
