Dietary macronutrient intake (multi-trait analysis)

PLEKHM1 · rs1971631

What the study found

Who was studied 282,271 European ancestry individuals.

The effect The reported allele is C; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 2 × 10−10.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 82% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17q21.31 — in an intron of PLEKHM1.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Dietary macronutrient intake (multi-trait analysis). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/G One copy of the version the research linked to Dietary macronutrient intake (multi-trait analysis). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Dietary macronutrient intake (multi-trait analysis). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs1971631

What is rs1971631?

rs1971631 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PLEKHM1 gene. Published research associates it with dietary macronutrient intake (multi-trait analysis). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs1971631 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 rs1971631 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature human behaviour 2022, PMID:34426670. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
