LYPLAL1 · rs2785980

What the study found

Who was studied Up to 51,750 European ancestry individuals; replicated in Up to 33,823 European ancestry individuals.

The effect The reported allele is T; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 2 × 10−8.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 67% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1q41 — in an intron of LYPLAL1-AS1.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Fasting blood insulin (BMI interaction) — no copies of the reported risk allele.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Fasting blood insulin (BMI interaction).
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Fasting blood insulin (BMI interaction) compared to the general population.

Questions about rs2785980

What is rs2785980?

rs2785980 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LYPLAL1 gene. Published research associates it with fasting blood insulin (bmi interaction). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs2785980 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 rs2785980 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2012, PMID:22581228. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
