High-density lipoprotein levels

SRGAP2 · rs2987936

What the study found

Who was studied 507,850 East Asian ancestry individuals, 420,829 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0131 higher (95% confidence interval 0.0096-0.0166); p = 3 × 10−13.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1q32.1 — in an intron of SRGAP2.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to High-density lipoprotein levels. 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 High-density lipoprotein levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to High-density lipoprotein levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs2987936

What is rs2987936?

rs2987936 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SRGAP2 gene. Published research associates it with high-density lipoprotein levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs2987936 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 rs2987936 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2025, PMID:40436827. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
