ALDH18A1 · rs56322409

What the study found

Who was studied 7,773 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.011 lower (95% confidence interval -0.0071--0.0149); p = 8 × 10−11.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 63% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10q24.1 — in an intron of ALDH18A1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs56322409

What is rs56322409?

rs56322409 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ALDH18A1 gene. Published research associates it with citrulline levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs56322409 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 rs56322409 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2014, PMID:24816252. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
