Triglyceride levels (MTAG)

near LINC02702 · rs11216101

What the study found

Who was studied 361,194 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0506 lower (95% confidence interval 0.036-0.066); p = 4 × 10−11.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q23.3 — between genes, 44.3 kb from LINC02702.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs11216101

What is rs11216101?

rs11216101 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near LINC02702 gene. Published research associates it with triglyceride levels (mtag). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs11216101 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 rs11216101 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2022, PMID:36376304. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
