Metabolite levels (methyl-4-hydroxybenzoate sulfate)

SGF29 · rs9929532

What the study found

Who was studied 8,894 European, Hispanic or African American individuals; replicated in up to 2,466 African American individuals, up to 15,619 European ancestry individuals, 1,734 Hispanic ancestry children.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.441 higher (95% confidence interval 0.33-0.55); p = 2 × 10−14.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 2% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16p11.2 — in an intron of SGF29.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Metabolite levels (methyl-4-hydroxybenzoate sulfate). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/G One copy of the version the research linked to Metabolite levels (methyl-4-hydroxybenzoate sulfate). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Metabolite levels (methyl-4-hydroxybenzoate sulfate). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs9929532

What is rs9929532?

rs9929532 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SGF29 gene. Published research associates it with metabolite levels (methyl-4-hydroxybenzoate sulfate). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs9929532 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 rs9929532 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2023, PMID:37253714. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
