Glutamine levels

SLC39A2 · rs2234633

What the study found

Who was studied 85,821 Caucasian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 7 (zscore) higher; p = 3 × 10−12.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 2% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 14, band 14q11.2 — a missense change in SLC39A2.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs2234633

What is rs2234633?

rs2234633 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SLC39A2 gene. Published research associates it with glutamine levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs2234633 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 rs2234633 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2021, PMID:33414548. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
