DYM - what this gene does

The variants catalogued for this gene cluster predominantly around rare disease trait categories, with one variant carrying a musculoskeletal trait label. Detailed functional summaries are not yet available for this gene's variants, so the description here is grounded in the trait themes visible in the variant data.

Key takeaways

  • This gene has 294 catalogued genetic variants, with the top-ranked entries all carrying a magnitude score of 5.50.
  • Nearly all top-ranked variants are associated with rare disease trait categories.
  • One top-ranked variant carries a musculoskeletal trait label, distinguishing it from the rare disease cluster.
  • Detailed per-variant research summaries are not yet available, so specific conditions and effect sizes remain pending.
  • Population-level variant data cannot predict health outcomes for any individual person.

Notable variants

All 20 of the top-ranked variants carry a magnitude score of 5.50. The majority are tagged under rare disease, including rs120074161, rs120074163, rs120074164, rs120074165, rs138427861, rs1440421643, rs145408029, and rs146000214. The variant rs201652921 stands apart at the same magnitude level with a musculoskeletal trait label rather than a rare disease one.

Trait associations

The primary trait theme across this gene's variant catalog is rare disease. Of the top 20 ranked variants, 19 carry a rare disease classification, including rs120074161, rs120074163, rs150849326, rs151034190, and rs2063332964, among others. The variant rs201652921 carries a musculoskeletal trait label, the only such classification among the top-ranked entries. Per-variant trait details beyond these broad categories are not yet available in the current dataset.

Evidence quality

All top-listed variants carry a magnitude score of 5.50, indicating strong evidence weighting in the underlying classification system. However, no individual SNP summaries are currently available for this gene, meaning specific effect sizes, odds ratios (a measure of how much a variant changes the statistical likelihood of a trait), sample sizes, and replication status across independent cohorts cannot be reported here. The gene has 294 total variants on file, suggesting a broad research footprint, but without per-variant metadata the depth of evidence for any specific association cannot be confirmed. The trait labels available are preliminary categories, not confirmed diagnoses or mechanistic findings.

What this is NOT

These variants are population-level statistical signals, not deterministic predictors for any individual. This page does not prescribe, diagnose, or advise any action.
