What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Coronary heart disease compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2011, PMID:21378990)
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Coronary heart disease. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2011, PMID:21378990)
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Coronary heart disease — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2011, PMID:21378990)

Questions about rs1231206

What is rs1231206?

rs1231206 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SMG6 gene. Published research associates it with coronary heart disease. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs1231206 mean I will get this?

No. Common variants like this one move a probability slightly and, on their own, rarely decide anything about one person. Nothing on this page is a diagnosis, and health decisions should be made with a clinician who can see your whole picture.

Where does the information about rs1231206 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2011, PMID:21378990. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
