Enterococcus faecalis abundance in stool

MED13L · rs143507801

What the study found

Who was studied 5,959 Finnish ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.202 higher (95% confidence interval 0.14-0.26); p = 6 × 10−11.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 1% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12q24.21 — in an intron of MED13L.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Enterococcus faecalis abundance in stool. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Enterococcus faecalis abundance in stool. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Enterococcus faecalis abundance in stool. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs143507801

What is rs143507801?

rs143507801 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MED13L gene. Published research associates it with enterococcus faecalis abundance in stool. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs143507801 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 rs143507801 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2022, PMID:35115689. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
