Waist Circumference - Triglycerides (WC-TG)

C2orf16 · rs1919128

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Waist Circumference - Triglycerides (WC-TG) compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Diabetes 2011, PMID:21386085)
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Waist Circumference - Triglycerides (WC-TG). (GWAS Catalog, Diabetes 2011, PMID:21386085)
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Waist Circumference - Triglycerides (WC-TG) — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Diabetes 2011, PMID:21386085)

Questions about rs1919128

What is rs1919128?

rs1919128 is a single position in the genome, in or near the C2orf16 gene. Published research associates it with waist circumference - triglycerides (wc-tg). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs1919128 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 rs1919128 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Diabetes 2011, PMID:21386085. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
