Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 mass

PLA2G7 · rs144067869

What the study found

Who was studied 510 Asian ancestry individuals, 1,521 Black individuals, 820 Hispanic or Latin American individuals, 7,281 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.388 lower (95% confidence interval 0.27-0.5); p = 5 × 10−11.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 0% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p12.3 — inside PLA2G7.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 mass. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 mass. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 mass. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs144067869

What is rs144067869?

rs144067869 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PLA2G7 gene. Published research associates it with lipoprotein-associated phospholipase a2 mass. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs144067869 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 rs144067869 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Human molecular genetics 2024, PMID:38747556. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
