Condition: Gut Microbiota

rs79387448 Condition: Gut Microbiota Gut Microbiota Condition rs79387448 rs79387448 SLC9A2

What the study found

Who was studied 1,812 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.31 lower; p = 8 × 10−11.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q12.1 — between genes, 20.6 kb from SLC9A2.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs79387448

What is rs79387448?

rs79387448 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SLC9A2 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.

What conditions is rs79387448 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Gut Microbiota. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs79387448 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 rs79387448 come from?

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