Alanine aminotransferase levels

PANX1 · rs12793348

What the study found

Who was studied 288,127 East Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0442 lower (95% confidence interval 0.038-0.051); p = 3 × 10−40.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 24% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q21 — a missense change in PANX1.

What ClinVar records

Classification Benign for PANX1-related disorder; criteria provided, multiple submitters, no conflicts (2 of 4 stars, 3 submitters), last evaluated 2021-06-09. ClinVar record 1252537 NM_015368.4(PANX1):c.814A>G (p.Ile272Val)

What this is ClinVar's aggregate record for this position (as of its 2026-10-19 release), not a result about you. A classification describes the variant against the condition named, as laboratories submitted it. Whether a person carries this variant, and what that would mean for them, is a question for a clinical test and a genetic counsellor.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs12793348

What is rs12793348?

rs12793348 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PANX1 gene. Published research associates it with alanine aminotransferase levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs12793348 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 rs12793348 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2022, PMID:36333282. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
