Kunitz-type protease inhibitor 1 levels

SPINT1 · rs17658212

What the study found

Who was studied 10,708 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.318 lower (95% confidence interval 0.26-0.37); p = 7 × 10−28.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 6% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 15, band 15q15.1 — a synonymous change in SPINT1.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Kunitz-type protease inhibitor 1 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 Kunitz-type protease inhibitor 1 levels.
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Kunitz-type protease inhibitor 1 levels compared to the general population.

Questions about rs17658212

What is rs17658212?

rs17658212 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SPINT1 gene. Published research associates it with kunitz-type protease inhibitor 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 rs17658212 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 rs17658212 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2021, PMID:34648354. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
