Aspartate aminotransferase levels

BTBD8 · rs143105156

What the study found

Who was studied 342,990 European ancestry individuals, 150,068 East Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0678 higher (95% confidence interval 0.048-0.088); p = 4 × 10−11.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p22.1 — in an intron of BTBD8.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs143105156

What is rs143105156?

rs143105156 is a single position in the genome, in or near the BTBD8 gene. Published research associates it with aspartate aminotransferase levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs143105156 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 rs143105156 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.
