Triglyceride levels

BUD13 · rs116588420

What the study found

Who was studied 24,600 Sub-Saharan African ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.211 lower (95% confidence interval 0.13-0.29); p = 4 × 10−10.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q23.3 — in an intron of BUD13.

What each result means

G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Triglyceride levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
G/T One copy of the version the research linked to Triglyceride levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Triglyceride levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs116588420

What is rs116588420?

rs116588420 is a single position in the genome, in or near the BUD13 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 rs116588420 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 rs116588420 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2022, PMID:35546142. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
