What the study found

Who was studied 153,950 Korean ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0242 higher (95% confidence interval 0.019-0.03); p = 3 × 10−17.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6q23.2 — inside ARG1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs6929820

What is rs6929820?

rs6929820 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ARG1 gene. Published research associates it with creatinine levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs6929820 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Kidney Function. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs6929820 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 rs6929820 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2025, PMID:40436827. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
