How do I find my results for a specific gene?

You can search for any gene or SNP directly in your SelfDecode account — or just ask AI Hyper Intelligence to pull up and explain your results for you.

The Fastest Way: Ask AI Hyper Intelligence

AI Hyper Intelligence has direct access to your full genetic profile and can answer questions about specific genes instantly, in plain language. Try prompts like:

  • "What are my results for the MTHFR gene and what do they mean for me?"
  • "Based on my COMT variants, what are my top recommendations?"
  • "How do my BDNF results affect my brain health?"

You'll get a personalized answer based on your actual data — no searching required. Open AI Hyper Intelligence.

Search for a Gene or SNP Manually

If you prefer to browse your results directly:

  1. Click the blue magnifying glass icon in the navigation panel.
  2. Type the gene or SNP name into the search box and press Enter.
  3. From the results, select the entry marked Gene (highlighted in purple).
  4. You'll be taken to your gene page, which shows your personalized SNP table, gene information, functions, and related research.

A Note on Single SNPs

It's rare for a single SNP to have a major influence on your health on its own. A more complete picture comes from looking at all your SNPs related to a topic together — which is exactly what your DNA health reports do.

Results for specific genes are only available if that gene is covered in the genetic data you've uploaded. If you haven't uploaded your data yet, or the gene isn't included in your test, no results will be available.

Understanding Genotypes vs. Genes

You may wonder how to find your genotype for an entire gene.

Here's what to know: genes contain thousands of individual SNPs, and not all of them are relevant to any given trait or condition. SelfDecode analyzes each SNP individually and assesses its potential impact on your health — which is more accurate and meaningful than assigning a single genotype to an entire gene.
