ARL15 · rs35929

What the study found

Who was studied up to 5,810 European ancestry individuals, up to 1,541 Val Borbera (founder/genetic isolate) individuals, up to 281 Carlantino (founder/genetic isolate) individuals, up to 889 Korcula (founder/genetic isolate) individuals, up to 489 Split (founder/genetic isolate) individuals, up to 195 Vis (founder/genetic isolate) individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.123 lower (95% confidence interval -0.23598-0.48138); p = 2 × 10−11.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 21% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q11.2 — in an intron of ARL15.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Urinary magnesium-to-creatinine ratio compared to the general population.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Urinary magnesium-to-creatinine ratio.
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Urinary magnesium-to-creatinine ratio — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs35929

What is rs35929?

rs35929 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ARL15 gene. Published research associates it with urinary magnesium-to-creatinine ratio. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs35929 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 rs35929 come from?

GWAS Catalog, J Am Soc Nephrol 2017, PMID:29093028. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
