What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Urate levels — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2010, PMID:20139978)
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Urate levels. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2010, PMID:20139978)
G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Urate levels compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2010, PMID:20139978)

Questions about rs4148155

What is rs4148155?

rs4148155 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ABCG2 gene. Published research associates it with urate levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does rs4148155 affect how medicines work?

ABCG2 carries pharmacogenomic findings for Statins. 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 rs4148155 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 rs4148155 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2010, PMID:20139978. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
