What the study found

Who was studied 6,397 European, Hispanic or African American individuals; replicated in up to 2,466 African American individuals, up to 15,619 European ancestry individuals, 1,734 Hispanic ancestry children.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.248 higher (95% confidence interval 0.19-0.31); p = 5 × 10−17.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 10% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p21.3 — in an intron of DPYD.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Metabolite levels (uracil; Uracil). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Metabolite levels (uracil; Uracil). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Metabolite levels (uracil; Uracil). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs3790389

What is rs3790389?

rs3790389 is a single position in the genome, in or near the DPYD gene. Published research associates it with metabolite levels (uracil; uracil). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does rs3790389 affect how medicines work?

DPYD carries pharmacogenomic findings for Fluoropyrimidines. That is educational information, not a prescription or a dosing guide. Any decision to start, stop or change a medicine belongs with the clinician or pharmacist managing your treatment.

Does having rs3790389 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 rs3790389 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2023, PMID:37253714. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
