Where this position leads

What the study found

Who was studied 418,642 British ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0451 higher (95% confidence interval 0.031-0.059); p = 4 × 10⁻¹⁰.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 98% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12q24.31 — in an intron of COQ5.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of C-reactive protein levels compared to the general population.

A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with C-reactive protein levels.

G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of C-reactive protein levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs117803005

What is rs117803005?

rs117803005 is a single position in the genome, in or near the COQ5 gene. Published research associates it with c-reactive protein levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs117803005 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to C-Reactive Protein Levels. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs117803005 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 rs117803005 come from?

GWAS Catalog, European journal of epidemiology 2020, PMID:31900758. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
