What the study found

Who was studied 5,686 Korean ancestry cases, 45,122 Korean ancestry controls.

The effect The reported allele is T; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 1 × 10−50.

Where it sits Chromosome 19, band 19q13.32 — in an intron of TOMM40.

What each result means

G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Hypercholesterolemia — no copies of the reported risk allele.
G/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Hypercholesterolemia.
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Hypercholesterolemia compared to the general population.

Questions about rs111784051

What is rs111784051?

rs111784051 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TOMM40 gene. Published research associates it with hypercholesterolemia. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs111784051 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Hypo-HDL-Cholesterolemia. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs111784051 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 rs111784051 come from?

GWAS Catalog, International journal of molecular sciences 2022, PMID:36233190. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
