research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can
read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.
What each result means
A/A
Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Airflow obstruction — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/G
Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Airflow obstruction.
G/G
Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Airflow obstruction compared to the general population.

Questions about rs138712481
What is rs138712481?
rs138712481 is a single position in the genome, in or near the EP400NL gene. Published research associates it with airflow obstruction. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
Does having rs138712481 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 rs138712481 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Am J Respir Crit Care Med 2018, PMID:29394082. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
