Arecaidine levels

MYOF · rs1721804

What the study found

Who was studied 2,466 Black/admixed ancestry individuals; replicated in up to 1,653 European, Hispanic, Asian or Black individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.284 higher (95% confidence interval 0.21-0.36); p = 7 × 10−13.

Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10q23.33 — in an intron of MYOF.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs1721804

What is rs1721804?

rs1721804 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MYOF gene. Published research associates it with arecaidine levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs1721804 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 rs1721804 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2022, PMID:35995766. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
