Cholesteryl esters to total lipids ratio in small VLDL

SHROOM3 · rs2137154

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 C allele shifted the measure 0.026 higher (95% confidence interval 0.018-0.034); p = 3 × 10−10.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 49% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q21.1 — in an intron of SHROOM3.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Cholesteryl esters to total lipids ratio in small VLDL. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/G One copy of the version the research linked to Cholesteryl esters to total lipids ratio in small VLDL. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Cholesteryl esters to total lipids ratio in small VLDL. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs2137154

What is rs2137154?

rs2137154 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SHROOM3 gene. Published research associates it with cholesteryl esters to total lipids ratio in 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 rs2137154 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 rs2137154 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.
