Myo-inositol levels

ELL · rs4808136

What the study found

Who was studied 7,803 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.013 higher (95% confidence interval 0.0091-0.0169); p = 5 × 10−14.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 34% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 19, band 19p13.11 — in an intron of ELL.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs4808136

What is rs4808136?

rs4808136 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ELL gene. Published research associates it with myo-inositol levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs4808136 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 rs4808136 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.
