SLC2A9 · rs7656342

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Gut microbiota (bacterial taxa) compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2016, PMID:27723756)
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Gut microbiota (bacterial taxa). (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2016, PMID:27723756)
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Gut microbiota (bacterial taxa) — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2016, PMID:27723756)

Questions about rs7656342

What is rs7656342?

rs7656342 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SLC2A9 gene. Published research associates it with gut microbiota (bacterial taxa). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7656342 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 rs7656342 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2016, PMID:27723756. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
