X-24544 levels

UGT3A1 · rs12659258

What the study found

Who was studied 7,939 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.647 higher (95% confidence interval 0.61-0.68); p = 6 × 10−255.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5p13.2 — in an intron of UGT3A1.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to X-24544 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 X-24544 levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to X-24544 levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs12659258

What is rs12659258?

rs12659258 is a single position in the genome, in or near the UGT3A1 gene. Published research associates it with x-24544 levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs12659258 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 rs12659258 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.
