Propionylcarnitine levels

MIR3936HG · rs272849

What the study found

Who was studied 8,809 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.118 higher (95% confidence interval 0.089-0.147); p = 7 × 10−16.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q31.1 — in an intron of MIR3936HG.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Propionylcarnitine levels. 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 Propionylcarnitine levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Propionylcarnitine levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs272849

What is rs272849?

rs272849 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MIR3936HG gene. Published research associates it with propionylcarnitine levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs272849 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 rs272849 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Metabolites 2022, PMID:35050183. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
