near TM4SF5 · rs193042029

What the study found

Who was studied 4,435 East Asian ancestry individuals, 11,340 South Asian ancestry individuals, 120,241 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.152 lower (95% confidence interval 0.11-0.19); p = 2 × 10−13.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 97% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17p13.2 — between genes, 7.2 kb from TM4SF5.

What each result means

G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Total cholesterol to total lipids ratio in very small VLDL — no copies of the reported risk allele.
G/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Total cholesterol to total lipids ratio in very small VLDL.
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Total cholesterol to total lipids ratio in very small VLDL compared to the general population.

Questions about rs193042029

What is rs193042029?

rs193042029 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near TM4SF5 gene. Published research associates it with total cholesterol to total lipids ratio in very small vldl. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs193042029 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 rs193042029 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature 2024, PMID:38448586. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
