Stands on its own. Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.

What the study found

Who was studied 5,662 Pakistani ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0857 lower (95% confidence interval 0.069-0.102); p = 1 × 10⁻²⁴.

Where it sits Chromosome 20, band 20p12.1 — in an intron of SPTLC3.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Ceramide(40:0)_[M-H]1- levels compared to the general population.

C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Ceramide(40:0)_[M-H]1- levels.

T/T Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Ceramide(40:0)_[M-H]1- levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs1367742

What is rs1367742?

rs1367742 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SPTLC3 gene. Published research associates it with ceramide(40:0)_[m-h]1- levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs1367742 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 rs1367742 come from?

GWAS Catalog, BMC medicine 2021, PMID:34503513. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
