What the study found

Who was studied up to 23,508 African ancestry individuals, 4,649 Asian ancestry individuals, up to 77,047 European ancestry individuals, 6,705 Hispanic individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0136 higher (95% confidence interval 0.0089-0.0183); p = 7 × 10−9.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 66% in the people studied.

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

What each result means

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

Questions about rs12310367

What is rs12310367?

rs12310367 is a single position in the genome, in or near the RFLNA 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 rs12310367 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 rs12310367 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2019, PMID:30926973. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
