Alanine aminotransferase levels

ZNF76 · rs3777742

What the study found

Who was studied 344,136 European ancestry individuals, 150,545 East Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0169 lower (95% confidence interval 0.013-0.021); p = 5 × 10−14.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p21.31 — in an intron of ZNF76.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Alanine aminotransferase levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Alanine aminotransferase levels.
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Alanine aminotransferase levels compared to the general population.

Questions about rs3777742

What is rs3777742?

rs3777742 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ZNF76 gene. Published research associates it with alanine aminotransferase levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs3777742 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 rs3777742 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2021, PMID:34594039. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
