Questions about rs34517613

What is rs34517613?

rs34517613 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SALM1 gene. Published research associates it with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (sporadic). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs34517613 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs34517613 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 rs34517613 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Hum Mol Genet 2013, PMID:24256812. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
