Creatinine clearance

NSD1 · rs78247455

What the study found

Who was studied 58,976 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 1.94 lower (95% confidence interval 1.27-2.61); p = 1 × 10−8.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 4% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q35.3 — a missense change in NSD1.

What ClinVar records

Classification Benign for Inborn genetic diseases, Sotos syndrome; criteria provided, multiple submitters, no conflicts (2 of 4 stars, 11 submitters), last evaluated 2026-02-03. ClinVar record 96079 NM_022455.5(NSD1):c.7636G>A (p.Ala2546Thr)

What this is ClinVar's aggregate record for this position (as of its 2026-10-12 release), not a result about you. A classification describes the variant against the condition named, as laboratories submitted it. Whether a person carries this variant, and what that would mean for them, is a question for a clinical test and a genetic counsellor.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs78247455

What is rs78247455?

rs78247455 is a single position in the genome, in or near the NSD1 gene. Published research associates it with creatinine clearance. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs78247455 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 rs78247455 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Kidney international 2026, PMID:42302930. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
