Red meat related metabolomic signature

near FADS3 · rs472031

What the study found

Who was studied 87,678 European ancestry individuals, 4,568 individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0792 higher; p = 8 × 10−27.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q12.2 — between genes, 2.6 kb from FADS3.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Red meat related metabolomic signature. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Red meat related metabolomic signature. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Red meat related metabolomic signature. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs472031

What is rs472031?

rs472031 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near FADS3 gene. Published research associates it with red meat related metabolomic signature. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs472031 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 rs472031 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Journal of the American Heart Association 2023, PMID:36974753. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
