What the study found

Who was studied 14,296 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 5,698 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.21 lower (95% confidence interval 0.19-0.23); p = 2 × 10−89.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 36% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q34.3 — in an intron of AGA.

What ClinVar records

Classification Benign; criteria provided, single submitter (1 of 4 stars, 1 submitter), last evaluated 2018-06-28. ClinVar record 1252917 NM_000027.4(AGA):c.394+180G>A

What this is ClinVar's aggregate record for this position (as of its 2026-10-12 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

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

Questions about rs13149149

What is rs13149149?

rs13149149 is a single position in the genome, in or near the AGA gene. Published research associates it with aspartate levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs13149149 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 rs13149149 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature medicine 2022, PMID:36357675. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
