Serum alkaline phosphatase levels

MAPT · rs12946693

What the study found

Who was studied 344,292 European ancestry individuals, 118,886 East Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0167 lower (95% confidence interval 0.013-0.021); p = 4 × 10−16.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17q21.31 — in an intron of MAPT.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs12946693

What is rs12946693?

rs12946693 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MAPT gene. Published research associates it with serum 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 rs12946693 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 rs12946693 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2021, PMID:34594039. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
