Triacylglycerol 36:0(FA12:0) (Model 1)

FADS2B · rs111635595

What the study found

Who was studied 6,724 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.498 lower; p = 2 × 10−13.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q12.1 — in an intron of FADS2B.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Triacylglycerol 36:0(FA12:0) (Model 1). 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 Triacylglycerol 36:0(FA12:0) (Model 1). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Triacylglycerol 36:0(FA12:0) (Model 1). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs111635595

What is rs111635595?

rs111635595 is a single position in the genome, in or near the FADS2B gene. Published research associates it with triacylglycerol 36:0(fa12:0) (model 1). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs111635595 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 rs111635595 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.
