Vaginal microbiome MetaCyc pathway (PWY-1622|formaldehyde assimilation I (serine pathway))

near ODAM · rs78166340

What the study found

Who was studied 315 Chinese ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 1.27 higher (95% confidence interval 0.89-1.65); p = 3 × 10−10.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q13.3 — between genes, 2.3 kb from ODAM.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Vaginal microbiome MetaCyc pathway (PWY-1622|formaldehyde assimilation I (serine pathway)). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Vaginal microbiome MetaCyc pathway (PWY-1622|formaldehyde assimilation I (serine pathway)). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Vaginal microbiome MetaCyc pathway (PWY-1622|formaldehyde assimilation I (serine pathway)). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs78166340

What is rs78166340?

rs78166340 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near ODAM gene. Published research associates it with vaginal microbiome metacyc pathway (pwy-1622|formaldehyde assimilation i (serine pathway)). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs78166340 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 rs78166340 come from?

GWAS Catalog, mSystems 2021, PMID:34282934. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
