Imidazole lactate levels

SLC16A3 · rs12601778

What the study found

Who was studied 8,256 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.107 lower (95% confidence interval 0.077-0.137); p = 3 × 10−12.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 43% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17q25.3 — in an intron of SLC16A3.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs12601778

What is rs12601778?

rs12601778 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SLC16A3 gene. Published research associates it with imidazole lactate levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs12601778 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 rs12601778 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2023, PMID:36635386. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
