Lysophosphatidylcholine levels

ROCK1 · rs117478007

What the study found

Who was studied 2,045 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.972 higher (95% confidence interval 0.67-1.27); p = 2 × 10−10.

Where it sits Chromosome 18, band 18q11.1 — in an intron of ROCK1.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Lysophosphatidylcholine levels. 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 Lysophosphatidylcholine levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Lysophosphatidylcholine levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs117478007

What is rs117478007?

rs117478007 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ROCK1 gene. Published research associates it with lysophosphatidylcholine levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs117478007 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 rs117478007 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2019, PMID:31551469. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
