Peak expiratory flow

LTBP4 · rs34093919

What the study found

Who was studied 321,047 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 24,218 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0714 higher (95% confidence interval 0.049-0.094); p = 4 × 10−10.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 1% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 19, band 19q13.2 — a missense change in LTBP4.

What this is ClinVar's aggregate record for this position (as of its 2026-09-24 release), not a result about you. A classification describes the variant against the condition named, as laboratories submitted it. Whether a person carries this variant, and what that would mean for them, is a question for a clinical test and a genetic counsellor.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Peak expiratory flow compared to the general population.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Peak expiratory flow.
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Peak expiratory flow — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs34093919

What is rs34093919?

rs34093919 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LTBP4 gene. Published research associates it with peak expiratory flow. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs34093919 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 rs34093919 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2019, PMID:30804560. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
