A/APublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Cotinine glucuronidation compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev 2014, PMID:25293881)
A/GPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Cotinine glucuronidation. (GWAS Catalog, Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev 2014, PMID:25293881)
G/GPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Cotinine glucuronidation — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev 2014, PMID:25293881)

Questions about rs6832720
What is rs6832720?
rs6832720 is a single position in the genome, in or near the OC255130 gene. Published research associates it with cotinine glucuronidation. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs6832720 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Nicotine and Cotinine Metabolism. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs6832720 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 rs6832720 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev 2014, PMID:25293881. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
