The effect The reported allele is A; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 2 × 10−9.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 27% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7q36.1 — in an intron of PRKAG2.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Estimated glomerular filtration rate (creatinine, CKDi25) compared to the general population.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Estimated glomerular filtration rate (creatinine, CKDi25).
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Estimated glomerular filtration rate (creatinine, CKDi25) — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs56012466

What is rs56012466?

rs56012466 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PRKAG2 gene. Published research associates it with estimated glomerular filtration rate (creatinine, ckdi25). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs56012466 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 rs56012466 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Kidney Int 2020, PMID:33137338. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
