research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can
read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.
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 compared to the general population.
A/C
Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Triglyceride levels.
C/C
Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Triglyceride levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs11656818
What is rs11656818?
rs11656818 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near COPZ2 gene. Published research associates it with triglyceride levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
Does having rs11656818 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 rs11656818 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2021, PMID:33462484. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
