Triglycerides in LDL meal response (OrNLSr)

near UTP20 · rs2037053

What the study found

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.325 lower (95% confidence interval 0.21-0.44); p = 4 × 10−8.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12q23.2 — between genes, 27.1 kb from UTP20.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Triglycerides in LDL meal response (OrNLSr). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/G One copy of the version the research linked to Triglycerides in LDL meal response (OrNLSr). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Triglycerides in LDL meal response (OrNLSr). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs2037053

What is rs2037053?

rs2037053 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near UTP20 gene. Published research associates it with triglycerides in ldl meal response (ornlsr). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs2037053 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 rs2037053 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Diabetes 2021, PMID:34610981. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
