Apolipoprotein A1 levels

CCDC102A · rs140164052

What the study found

Who was studied 393,193 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0354 higher (95% confidence interval 0.024-0.046); p = 3 × 10−10.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 97% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16q21 — between genes, 3.7 kb from CCDC102A.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Apolipoprotein A1 levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Apolipoprotein A1 levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Apolipoprotein A1 levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs140164052

What is rs140164052?

rs140164052 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CCDC102A gene. Published research associates it with apolipoprotein a1 levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs140164052 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 rs140164052 come from?

GWAS Catalog, PLoS medicine 2020, PMID:32203549. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
