Triacylglycerol (56:6) levels

GATAD2A · rs189452885

What the study found

Who was studied 7,151 Finnish ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.339 lower (95% confidence interval 0.26-0.42); p = 2 × 10−15.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 4% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 19, band 19p13.11 — in an intron of GATAD2A.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Triacylglycerol (56:6) levels compared to the general population.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Triacylglycerol (56:6) levels.
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Triacylglycerol (56:6) levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs189452885

What is rs189452885?

rs189452885 is a single position in the genome, in or near the GATAD2A gene. Published research associates it with triacylglycerol (56:6) levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs189452885 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 rs189452885 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2023, PMID:37907536. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
