Stands on its own. Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.

What the study found

Who was studied 5,847 Japanese ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 13.8 umol/L lower (95% confidence interval 9.9-17.68); p = 4 × 10⁻¹².

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 17% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q13.1 — a missense change in CDC42BPG.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Serum uric acid 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 Serum uric acid levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.

G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Serum uric acid levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs55975541

What is rs55975541?

rs55975541 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CDC42BPG gene. Published research associates it with serum uric acid levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs55975541 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 rs55975541 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Molecular genetics and genomics : MGG 2018, PMID:29124443. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
