Cholesterol to total lipids ratio in very large HDL

LIPC · rs11631342

What the study found

Who was studied 115,056 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.142 higher (95% confidence interval 0.098-0.186); p = 3 × 10−10.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 99% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 15, band 15q21.3 — in an intron of LIPC.

What ClinVar records

Classification Benign; criteria provided, multiple submitters, no conflicts (2 of 4 stars, 2 submitters), last evaluated 2018-11-18. ClinVar record 1243737 NM_000236.3(LIPC):c.88+64A>G

What this is ClinVar's aggregate record for this position (as of its 2026-10-19 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 Cholesterol to total lipids ratio in very large HDL. 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 Cholesterol to total lipids ratio in very large HDL. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Cholesterol to total lipids ratio in very large HDL. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs11631342

What is rs11631342?

rs11631342 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LIPC gene. Published research associates it with cholesterol to total lipids ratio in very large hdl. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs11631342 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 rs11631342 come from?

GWAS Catalog, PLoS biology 2022, PMID:35213538. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
