Hemopexin protein levels (SomaScan ID:5742-14)

ACP6 · rs1344

What the study found

Who was studied 200 Shetland Isles origin ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.807 higher (95% confidence interval 0.49-1.12); p = 3 × 10−20.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1q21.2 — a synonymous change in ACP6.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Hemopexin protein levels (SomaScan ID:5742-14) compared to the general population.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Hemopexin protein levels (SomaScan ID:5742-14).
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Hemopexin protein levels (SomaScan ID:5742-14) — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs1344

What is rs1344?

rs1344 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ACP6 gene. Published research associates it with hemopexin protein levels (somascan id:5742-14). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs1344 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 rs1344 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Communications biology 2025, PMID:40883583. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
