Phenyllactate (pla) levels

near RNU6-1155P · rs4784054

What the study found

Who was studied 6,064 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.035 higher (95% confidence interval 0.027-0.043); p = 2 × 10−21.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 11% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16q21 — between genes, 1.8 kb from RNU6-1155P.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Phenyllactate (pla) 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 Phenyllactate (pla) levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Phenyllactate (pla) levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs4784054

What is rs4784054?

rs4784054 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near RNU6-1155P gene. Published research associates it with phenyllactate (pla) levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs4784054 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 rs4784054 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2014, PMID:24816252. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
