Treponemataceae abundance in stool

near KC6 · rs34253559

What the study found

Who was studied 5,959 Finnish ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.104 higher (95% confidence interval 0.07-0.138); p = 2 × 10−9.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 1% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 18, band 18q12.3 — between genes, 204.3 kb from KC6.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Treponemataceae abundance in stool. 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 Treponemataceae abundance in stool. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Treponemataceae abundance in stool. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs34253559

What is rs34253559?

rs34253559 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near KC6 gene. Published research associates it with treponemataceae abundance in stool. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs34253559 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 rs34253559 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2022, PMID:35115689. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
