Red meat related metabolomic signature

near CPS1 · rs55888687

What the study found

Who was studied 87,678 European ancestry individuals, 4,568 individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0365 higher; p = 2 × 10−10.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q34 — between genes, 174.5 kb from CPS1.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Red meat related metabolomic signature. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Red meat related metabolomic signature. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Red meat related metabolomic signature. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs55888687

What is rs55888687?

rs55888687 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near CPS1 gene. Published research associates it with red meat related metabolomic signature. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs55888687 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 rs55888687 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Journal of the American Heart Association 2023, PMID:36974753. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
