What’s searchable?ADIPOQ encodes adiponectin, a hormone released by fat tissue that participates in insulin sensitivity and fat metabolism. Its name often appears in discussions of triglycerides, body composition and metabolic health. Also called: Adiponecti…
APOE encodes a protein that carries lipids between cells. The familiar APOE e2, e3 and e4 groupings depend on the combination of rs429358 and rs7412, not on either marker read in isolation. Also called: Apolipoprotein E Lipid transport and …
G6PC2 encodes a glucose-6-phosphatase-related protein expressed in pancreatic islet cells. Common variation is associated with differences in fasting glucose regulation; it is not the insulin receptor. Also called: Glucose-6-Phosphatase Cat…
HLA-DQA2 is part of the HLA class II region involved in immune recognition. It should not be treated as interchangeable with HLA-DQA1 or as a measurement of how well the immune system fights infections. Also called: HLADQA2, Human Leukocyte…
NAT2 encodes N-acetyltransferase 2, which helps process certain drugs and other compounds. Combinations of variants can influence acetylation status; one SNP usually does not tell the entire story. Also called: N-Acetyltransferase 2 Acetyla…
NR3C1 encodes the glucocorticoid receptor, which helps tissues respond to cortisol and glucocorticoid medicines. Receptor genetics and measured cortisol levels answer different questions. Also called: Nuclear Receptor Subfamily 3 Group C Me…
NTRK2 encodes TrkB, a receptor involved in responding to neurotrophic signals such as BDNF. These signals support nervous-system function and plasticity. NTRK2 is not a phosphatidylserine absorption transporter. Also called: Neurotrophic Re…
PTGS2, commonly called COX-2, encodes an enzyme involved in prostaglandin production. Prostaglandins participate in pain, fever and inflammatory signaling. Also called: COX2, Cyclooxygenase 2 COX-2 and inflammatory prostaglandins PTGS2, com…
