rs10920531

What is the rs10920531 variant?

rs10920531 is a SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) in the ADIPOR1 (Adiponectin Receptor 1) gene. It belongs to the Metabolic category and is part of the Metabolic Regulation biological cluster. ADIPOR1 encodes adiponectin receptor 1, expressed in muscle, which mediates adiponectin's effects on fatty acid oxidation and insulin sensitivity.

Biological role and pathway

This variant sits within the ADIPOR1 gene, which is involved in the adiponectin signaling pathway. Genes within the Metabolic Regulation cluster work together to maintain balanced function across interconnected biological systems.

Variants in genes within this pathway may influence an individual's predisposition to altered function — particularly under conditions of physiological stress such as viral infection or prolonged illness.
