Matrix metalloproteinase-3 levels

near MMP27 · rs1291326

What the study found

Who was studied 21,758 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 9,173 individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.173 lower; p = 2 × 10−38.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 92% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q22.2 — between genes, 5.9 kb from MMP27.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Matrix metalloproteinase-3 levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Matrix metalloproteinase-3 levels.
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Matrix metalloproteinase-3 levels compared to the general population.

Questions about rs1291326

What is rs1291326?

rs1291326 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near MMP27 gene. Published research associates it with matrix metalloproteinase-3 levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs1291326 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 rs1291326 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature metabolism 2020, PMID:33067605. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
