What the study found

Who was studied 2,115 European ancestry cases, 67,259 European ancestry controls; replicated in 1,036 European ancestry cases.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.548 lower (95% confidence interval 0.46-0.64); p = 2 × 10−32.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 89% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q22.1 — in an intron of ABCG2.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs1481012

What is rs1481012?

rs1481012 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ABCG2 gene. Published research associates it with gout. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs1481012 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Gout. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does rs1481012 affect how medicines work?

ABCG2 carries pharmacogenomic findings for Statins. That is educational information, not a prescription or a dosing guide. Any decision to start, stop or change a medicine belongs with the clinician or pharmacist managing your treatment.

What do people read about alongside rs1481012?

Subjects that appear in the title or abstract of the same papers as this rsID include exercise and muscle (1 papers), heart and circulation (1 papers). A shared paper means somebody wrote about the two together; it is not a claim that this position explains the topic.

Does having rs1481012 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 rs1481012 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2012, PMID:23263486. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
