Alanine levels (UKB data field 23460)

SLC38A1 · rs79132146

What the study found

Who was studied 88,325 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0649 higher (95% confidence interval 0.048-0.082); p = 6 × 10−14.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 6% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12q13.11 — in an intron of SLC38A1.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Alanine levels (UKB data field 23460). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/C One copy of the version the research linked to Alanine levels (UKB data field 23460). That is a smaller link than two copies.
C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Alanine levels (UKB data field 23460). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs79132146

What is rs79132146?

rs79132146 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SLC38A1 gene. Published research associates it with alanine levels (ukb data field 23460). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs79132146 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 rs79132146 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Biological psychiatry 2023, PMID:36764567. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
