Glycine levels

PKD1L2 · rs62051533

What the study found

Who was studied 80,003 European ancestry individuals.

The effect The reported allele is C; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 3 × 10−11.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 32% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16q23.2 — in an intron of PKD1L2.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs62051533

What is rs62051533?

rs62051533 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PKD1L2 gene. Published research associates it with glycine levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs62051533 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 rs62051533 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2019, PMID:30837465. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
