Phosphatidylethanolamine(36:4)_[M-H]1- levels

ALDH1A2 · rs17821226

What the study found

Who was studied 5,662 Pakistani ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.173 lower (95% confidence interval 0.13-0.22); p = 6 × 10−14.

Where it sits Chromosome 15, band 15q21.3 — inside ALDH1A2.

What each result means

G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Phosphatidylethanolamine(36:4)_[M-H]1- levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
G/T One copy of the version the research linked to Phosphatidylethanolamine(36:4)_[M-H]1- levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Phosphatidylethanolamine(36:4)_[M-H]1- levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs17821226

What is rs17821226?

rs17821226 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ALDH1A2 gene. Published research associates it with phosphatidylethanolamine(36:4)_[m-h]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 rs17821226 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 rs17821226 come from?

GWAS Catalog, BMC medicine 2021, PMID:34503513. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
