A/APublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Triglycerides — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Nature 2010, PMID:20686565)
A/GPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Triglycerides. (GWAS Catalog, Nature 2010, PMID:20686565)
G/GPublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Triglycerides compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Nature 2010, PMID:20686565)

Questions about rs1495741
What is rs1495741?
rs1495741 is a single position in the genome, in or near the NAT2 gene. Published research associates it with triglycerides. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs1495741 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to High Triglycerides. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs1495741 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 rs1495741 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nature 2010, PMID:20686565. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
