HMBS protein levels

HYOU1 · rs45510602

What the study found

Who was studied 47,745 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.102 lower (95% confidence interval 0.086-0.118); p = 2 × 10−38.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 17% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q23.3 — in an intron of HYOU1.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of HMBS protein 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 HMBS protein levels.
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of HMBS protein levels compared to the general population.

Questions about rs45510602

What is rs45510602?

rs45510602 is a single position in the genome, in or near the HYOU1 gene. Published research associates it with hmbs protein levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs45510602 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 rs45510602 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2025, PMID:39789286. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
