Plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 levels

SERPINE1 · rs1050955

What the study found

Who was studied 3,506 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.196 higher (95% confidence interval 0.15-0.25); p = 2 × 10−14.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 22% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7q22.1 — in the 3′ untranslated region of SERPINE1.

What ClinVar records

Classification Benign for Congenital plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 deficiency; criteria provided, multiple submitters, no conflicts (2 of 4 stars, 2 submitters), last evaluated 2018-01-12. ClinVar record 358338 NM_000602.5(SERPINE1):c.*1737G>A

What this is ClinVar's aggregate record for this position (as of its 2026-10-12 release), not a result about you. A classification describes the variant against the condition named, as laboratories submitted it. Whether a person carries this variant, and what that would mean for them, is a question for a clinical test and a genetic counsellor.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs1050955

What is rs1050955?

rs1050955 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SERPINE1 gene. Published research associates it with plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs1050955 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 rs1050955 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2024, PMID:39528825. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
