Blood urea nitrogen levels

SLC15A2 · rs2250067

What the study found

Who was studied 679,531 European ancestry individuals, 173,149 individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.005 higher (95% confidence interval 0.004-0.006); p = 9 × 10−25.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 49% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3q13.33 — in an intron of SLC15A2.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs2250067

What is rs2250067?

rs2250067 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SLC15A2 gene. Published research associates it with blood urea nitrogen levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs2250067 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 rs2250067 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2021, PMID:34272381. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
