Endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase 1 levels

CAST · rs17086593

What the study found

Who was studied 2,935 Qatari ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.572 higher (95% confidence interval 0.49-0.66); p = 4 × 10−39.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 11% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q15 — in an intron of CAST.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase 1 levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase 1 levels.
G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase 1 levels compared to the general population.

Questions about rs17086593

What is rs17086593?

rs17086593 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CAST gene. Published research associates it with endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase 1 levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs17086593 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 rs17086593 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Human molecular genetics 2023, PMID:36168886. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
