Cholesterol esters in large HDL

near VN1R104P · rs2008136

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 0.0315 higher (95% confidence interval 0.023-0.04); p = 6 × 10−13.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 34% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 19, band 19q13.42 — between genes, 0.4 kb from VN1R104P.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs2008136

What is rs2008136?

rs2008136 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near VN1R104P gene. Published research associates it with cholesterol esters in large hdl. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs2008136 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 rs2008136 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.
