Questions about rs2338104

What is rs2338104?

rs2338104 is a single position in the genome, in or near the KCTD10 gene. Published research associates it with free cholesterol to total lipids in large vldl percentage. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs2338104 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Cholesterol (LDL, HDL and Total). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs2338104 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 rs2338104 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2025, PMID:41044249. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
