Where it sits Chromosome 19, band 19p13.11 — between genes, 8.9 kb from ZNF101.

What each result means

G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Omega-3 fatty acid levels compared to the general population.
G/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Omega-3 fatty acid levels.
T/T Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Omega-3 fatty acid levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs139874907

What is rs139874907?

rs139874907 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near ZNF101 gene. Published research associates it with omega-3 fatty acid levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs139874907 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 rs139874907 come from?

GWAS Catalog, HGG advances 2025, PMID:40545721. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
