A/APublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Triglycerides compared to the general population.
A/GPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Triglycerides.
G/GPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Triglycerides — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs139961185
What is rs139961185?
rs139961185 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SIK3 gene. Published research associates it with triglycerides. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs139961185 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to High Triglycerides. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs139961185 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 rs139961185 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nat Commun 2014, PMID:24886709. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
