What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Homocysteine levels compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Am J Clin Nutr 2013, PMID:23824729)
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Homocysteine levels. (GWAS Catalog, Am J Clin Nutr 2013, PMID:23824729)
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Homocysteine levels — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Am J Clin Nutr 2013, PMID:23824729)

Questions about rs154657

What is rs154657?

rs154657 is a single position in the genome, in or near the DPEP1 gene. Published research associates it with homocysteine levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs154657 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 rs154657 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Am J Clin Nutr 2013, PMID:23824729. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
