Frequently asked questions

What does the LRMDA gene do?

The LRMDA gene encodes a protein involved in lipid metabolism and its variants can influence metabolite levels.

Is rs12253878 linked to health conditions?

The variant is associated with higher metabolite levels but the GWAS does not identify any specific disease.

Can this SNP affect my metabolism?

This SNP has a small effect on metabolite levels in large studies, but it is not a direct cause of metabolic disorders.
