near ZBTB16 · rs12417664

What the study found

Who was studied 48,057 Hispanic individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0681 higher (95% confidence interval 0.049-0.088); p = 2 × 10−11.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 17% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q23.2 — between genes, 22.1 kb from ZBTB16.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs12417664

What is rs12417664?

rs12417664 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near ZBTB16 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 rs12417664 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 rs12417664 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature 2021, PMID:34887591. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
