Phosphatidylethanolamine (O-18:1_20:4) levels

CLPTM1 · rs204468

What the study found

Who was studied 7,172 Finnish ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0953 lower (95% confidence interval 0.062-0.129); p = 2 × 10−8.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 41% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 19, band 19q13.32 — a synonymous change in CLPTM1.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Phosphatidylethanolamine (O-18:1_20:4) levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Phosphatidylethanolamine (O-18:1_20:4) levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Phosphatidylethanolamine (O-18:1_20:4) levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs204468

What is rs204468?

rs204468 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CLPTM1 gene. Published research associates it with phosphatidylethanolamine (o-18:1_20:4) levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs204468 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 rs204468 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.
