rs11136000

CLU

rs11136000 is a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the CLU gene. Genespiral reads it in the Personality analysis to describe Mind Wandering.

An rsID such as rs11136000 is the reference number dbSNP assigns to one position in the genome where people commonly differ by a single letter. Raw data exports from 23andMe and AncestryDNA list your two alleles at that position as a genotype - for this marker one of CC, TC, TT. The order of the two letters carries no meaning, so TC and its reverse are the same genotype.

Alleles on this page are written on the forward (plus) strand, matching how consumer raw files report them. Other references sometimes describe the same variant on the opposite strand, which swaps A↔T and C↔G - see why the same variant can look different. The associations below are educational summaries of published research; they are not diagnoses, and the effect of any single SNP is usually modest.

Summary
CLU gene variations can impact attention and likelihood of mind-wandering during tasks.
Scientific insights
Individuals with 'CC' may find it harder to stay focused on prolonged tasks without distraction.
Lifestyle tips
Practicing mindfulness and setting short task intervals can help manage mind wandering.
