Gut microbiota abundance (family Streptococcaceae id.1850)

BLTP3B · rs17851246

Where this position leads

What the study found

Who was studied 14,306 European ancestry individuals, 811 Korean ancestry individuals, 1,097 Hispanic individuals, 114 African American individuals, 481 Middle Eastern ancestry individuals, 1,531 unknown and other admixed ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 5.49 z score lower; p = 4 × 10⁻⁸.

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12q23.1 — a missense change in BLTP3B.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Gut microbiota abundance (family Streptococcaceae id.1850). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Gut microbiota abundance (family Streptococcaceae id.1850). That is a smaller link than two copies.

G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Gut microbiota abundance (family Streptococcaceae id.1850). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs17851246

What is rs17851246?

rs17851246 is a single position in the genome, in or near the BLTP3B gene. Published research associates it with gut microbiota abundance (family streptococcaceae id.1850). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs17851246 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Gut Microbiota. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs17851246 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 rs17851246 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2021, PMID:33462485. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
