Lysine levels

NADK2 · rs16902835

What the study found

Who was studied 6,136 Finnish ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.12 higher; p = 4 × 10−11.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5p13.2 — in an intron of NADK2.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs16902835

What is rs16902835?

rs16902835 is a single position in the genome, in or near the NADK2 gene. Published research associates it with lysine levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs16902835 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 rs16902835 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2022, PMID:35347128. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
