RBC levels of Urate (uM)

RBFOX1 · rs74012235

Strength of the evidence

1 / 4

Its strongest genetic-study result is p = 10−8, with 1 associations in the GWAS Catalog.

How this is scored

4: ClinVar disease-causing, reviewed by an expert panel or a guideline (3–4 stars). 3: ClinVar, several labs agreeing (2 stars), or a genetic study at p ≤ 10−50. 2: ClinVar from one lab (1 star), or p ≤ 10−20. 1: ClinVar submitted without criteria (0 stars), or genome-wide significance (p ≤ 5×10−8). The higher of the two counts. It says how solid the evidence is, not whether it matters for a particular person.

What the study found

Who was studied 243 individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 1.5 higher (95% confidence interval 0.97-2.03); p = 3 × 10−8.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 99% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16p13.3 — in the 3′ untranslated region of RBFOX1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs74012235

What is rs74012235?

rs74012235 is a single position in the genome, in or near the RBFOX1 gene. Published research associates it with rbc levels of urate (um). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs74012235 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 rs74012235 come from?

GWAS Catalog, The Journal of biological chemistry 2022, PMID:36395887. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
