Citrulline levels

near SOX7 · rs60837490

What the study found

Who was studied 30,940 Caucasian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 7.58 (zscore) higher; p = 3 × 10−14.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 8% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8p23.1 — between genes, 1.8 kb from SOX7.

What each result means

A/A 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.
A/C One copy of the version the research linked to Citrulline levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Citrulline levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs60837490

What is rs60837490?

rs60837490 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near SOX7 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 rs60837490 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 rs60837490 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2021, PMID:33414548. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
