Phosphatidylglycerol(32:1)_[M+OAc]1- levels

near UGT8 · rs4834421

What the study found

Who was studied 5,662 Pakistani ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0571 lower (95% confidence interval 0.04-0.074); p = 2 × 10−11.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q26 — between genes, 25.7 kb from UGT8.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Phosphatidylglycerol(32:1)_[M+OAc]1- levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/C One copy of the version the research linked to Phosphatidylglycerol(32:1)_[M+OAc]1- levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Phosphatidylglycerol(32:1)_[M+OAc]1- levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs4834421

What is rs4834421?

rs4834421 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near UGT8 gene. Published research associates it with phosphatidylglycerol(32:1)_[m+oac]1- levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs4834421 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 rs4834421 come from?

GWAS Catalog, BMC medicine 2021, PMID:34503513. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
