Proinsulin levels

LARP6 · rs1549318

What the study found

Who was studied 10,701 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 16,378 European ancestry individuals.

The effect The reported allele is T; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 2 × 10−10.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 61% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 15, band 15q23 — between genes, 12.3 kb from LARP6.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs1549318

What is rs1549318?

rs1549318 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LARP6 gene. Published research associates it with proinsulin levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs1549318 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 rs1549318 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Diabetes 2011, PMID:21873549. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
