Linoleic acid to total fatty acids percentage

MARK4 · rs11083761

Strength of the evidence

1 / 4

Its strongest genetic-study result is p = 10−8, with 1 associations in the GWAS Catalog.

How this is scored

4: ClinVar disease-causing, reviewed by an expert panel or a guideline (3–4 stars). 3: ClinVar, several labs agreeing (2 stars), or a genetic study at p ≤ 10−50. 2: ClinVar from one lab (1 star), or p ≤ 10−20. 1: ClinVar submitted without criteria (0 stars), or genome-wide significance (p ≤ 5×10−8). The higher of the two counts. It says how solid the evidence is, not whether it matters for a particular person.

What the study found

Who was studied 239,268 European ancestry individuals.

The effect The reported allele is A; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 6 × 10−9.

Where it sits Chromosome 19, band 19q13.32 — a missense change in MARK4.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Linoleic acid to total fatty acids percentage. 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 Linoleic acid to total fatty acids percentage. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Linoleic acid to total fatty acids percentage. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs11083761

What is rs11083761?

rs11083761 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MARK4 gene. Published research associates it with linoleic acid to total fatty acids percentage. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs11083761 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 rs11083761 come from?

GWAS Catalog, HGG advances 2025, PMID:40545721. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
