What the study found

Who was studied 7,891 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.124 higher (95% confidence interval 0.088-0.16); p = 2 × 10−11.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 23% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12p12.1 — in an intron of SLCO1B1.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Lithocholate sulfate (1) levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Lithocholate sulfate (1) levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Lithocholate sulfate (1) levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs4149051

What is rs4149051?

rs4149051 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SLCO1B1 gene. Published research associates it with lithocholate sulfate (1) levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does rs4149051 affect how medicines work?

SLCO1B1 carries pharmacogenomic findings for Statins, Ticagrelor. 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 rs4149051 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 rs4149051 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2023, PMID:36635386. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
