Polyunsaturated fatty acid levels

UBASH3B · rs35483388

What the study found

Who was studied 434,646 British ancestry individuals, 8,796 British Central/South Asian individuals, 6,573 British African individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.01 mmol/L higher (95% confidence interval 0.01-0.01); p = 1 × 10−10.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q24.1 — in an intron of UBASH3B.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Polyunsaturated fatty acid levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Polyunsaturated fatty acid levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Polyunsaturated fatty acid levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs35483388

What is rs35483388?

rs35483388 is a single position in the genome, in or near the UBASH3B gene. Published research associates it with polyunsaturated fatty acid levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs35483388 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 rs35483388 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.
