Glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase levels

near FAM120A2P · rs2991378

What the study found

Who was studied 9,663 Korean ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 1.14 IU/L lower; p = 1 × 10−10.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 29% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 9, band 9q22.31 — between genes, 2 kb from FAM120A2P.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs2991378

What is rs2991378?

rs2991378 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near FAM120A2P gene. Published research associates it with glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs2991378 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 rs2991378 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Scientific reports 2022, PMID:35121771. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
