UGT1A3 · rs10179091

What the study found

Who was studied 7,093 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.311 lower; p = 6 × 10−74.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q37.1 — in an intron of UGT1A9.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Diacylglycerol (14:1/18:1) (Model 2) — no copies of the reported risk allele.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Diacylglycerol (14:1/18:1) (Model 2).
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Diacylglycerol (14:1/18:1) (Model 2) compared to the general population.

Questions about rs10179091

What is rs10179091?

rs10179091 is a single position in the genome, in or near the UGT1A3 gene. Published research associates it with diacylglycerol (14:1/18:1) (model 2). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs10179091 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 rs10179091 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2026, PMID:42069741. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
