Stands on its own.
Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the
research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can
read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.
What the study found
Who was studied 8,631 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.46 higher; p = 3 × 10−8.
How common The T allele had a frequency of about 1% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3q13.33 — in the 3′ untranslated region of TMEM39A.
What each result means
C/CNo copy of the version the research linked to Plasma omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid levels (arachidonic acid). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/TOne copy of the version the research linked to Plasma omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid levels (arachidonic acid). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/TTwo copies of the version the research linked to Plasma omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid levels (arachidonic acid). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
rs16829840 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TMEM39A gene. Published research associates it with plasma omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid levels (arachidonic acid). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
Does having rs16829840 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 rs16829840 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Circ Cardiovasc Genet 2014, PMID:24823311. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
