LIPC · rs261336

What the study found

Who was studied 7,274 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.169 lower; p = 6 × 10−14.

Where it sits Chromosome 15, band 15q21.3 — in an intron of ALDH1A2.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Phosphatidylethanolamines (18:0/22:6) (Model 1) compared to the general population.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Phosphatidylethanolamines (18:0/22:6) (Model 1).
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Phosphatidylethanolamines (18:0/22:6) (Model 1) — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs261336

What is rs261336?

rs261336 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LIPC gene. Published research associates it with phosphatidylethanolamines (18:0/22:6) (model 1). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs261336 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 rs261336 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2026, PMID:42069741. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
