Alanine--tRNA ligase, cytoplasmic levels

PDPR · rs4985404

What the study found

Who was studied 10,708 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.342 lower (95% confidence interval 0.26-0.42); p = 5 × 10−16.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 97% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16q22.1 — in the 3′ untranslated region of PDPR.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Alanine--tRNA ligase, cytoplasmic levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/T One copy of the version the research linked to Alanine--tRNA ligase, cytoplasmic levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Alanine--tRNA ligase, cytoplasmic levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs4985404

What is rs4985404?

rs4985404 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PDPR gene. Published research associates it with alanine--trna ligase, cytoplasmic levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs4985404 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 rs4985404 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2021, PMID:34648354. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
