Cerebrospinal fluid succinylcarnitine (C4-DC) levels

RPS27L · rs4774478

What the study found

Who was studied 2,602 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0493 higher (95% confidence interval 0.043-0.055); p = 2 × 10−57.

Where it sits Chromosome 15, band 15q22.2 — inside RPS27L.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Cerebrospinal fluid succinylcarnitine (C4-DC) levels. 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 Cerebrospinal fluid succinylcarnitine (C4-DC) levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Cerebrospinal fluid succinylcarnitine (C4-DC) levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs4774478

What is rs4774478?

rs4774478 is a single position in the genome, in or near the RPS27L gene. Published research associates it with cerebrospinal fluid succinylcarnitine (c4-dc) levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs4774478 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 rs4774478 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2024, PMID:39528826. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
