Acid Ceramidase Polymorphisms and Methods of Predicting Traits Using the Acid Ceramidase Polymorphisms

Provided are methods of predicting a trait in a subject including obtaining information about at least a portion of a polynucleotide sequence of the subject, the polynucleotide sequence encoding the acid ceramidase polypeptide, and using the information to predict the expression of the trait in the subject. Further provided are methods of developing a treatment plan for a subject with a disease or condition responsive to exercise. The methods may include obtaining information about at least a portion of a polynucleotide sequence of the subject, the polynucleotide sequence encoding the acid ceramidase polypeptide, using the information to predict a trait selected from maintaining an exercise program and physiological responsiveness to an exercise program, and developing a treatment plan for the subject to treat the disease or condition.
