Coronary artery calcification

LINC01600 · rs12190315

What the study found

Who was studied 26,000 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.058 lower (95% confidence interval 0.042-0.074); p = 1 × 10−13.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 22% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p25.2 — in an intron of LINC01600.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs12190315

What is rs12190315?

rs12190315 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LINC01600 gene. Published research associates it with coronary artery calcification. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs12190315 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 rs12190315 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2025, PMID:40164586. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
