Aortic valve area (MTAG)

near CHST3 · rs1271934

What the study found

Who was studied 77,183 European ancestry individuals (MTAG effective sample size boosted by aortic valve function and stenosis samples).

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0353 higher (95% confidence interval 0.025-0.045); p = 3 × 10−12.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 39% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10q22.1 — between genes, 15.2 kb from CHST3.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Aortic valve area (MTAG). 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 Aortic valve area (MTAG). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Aortic valve area (MTAG). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs1271934

What is rs1271934?

rs1271934 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near CHST3 gene. Published research associates it with aortic valve area (mtag). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs1271934 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 rs1271934 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2026, PMID:41419685. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
