rs6449182

AVPR1A

rs6449182 is a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the AVPR1A gene. Genespiral reads it in the Personality analysis to describe Generosity.

Traits

An rsID such as rs6449182 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, CG, GG. The order of the two letters carries no meaning, so CG 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
AVPR1A gene variations can influence altruistic behaviors, such as willingness to share and help others.
Scientific insights
Individuals with 'CC' may be more inclined to give and support others, displaying higher generosity.
Lifestyle tips
Engaging in acts of kindness and volunteering can foster generous behavior.
