Low density lipoprotein cholesterol levels

near SMARCA4 · rs36005514

Strength of the evidence

2 / 4

Its strongest genetic-study result is p = 10−43, with 3 associations in the GWAS Catalog.

How this is scored

4: ClinVar disease-causing, reviewed by an expert panel or a guideline (3–4 stars). 3: ClinVar, several labs agreeing (2 stars), or a genetic study at p ≤ 10−50. 2: ClinVar from one lab (1 star), or p ≤ 10−20. 1: ClinVar submitted without criteria (0 stars), or genome-wide significance (p ≤ 5×10−8). The higher of the two counts. It says how solid the evidence is, not whether it matters for a particular person.

What the study found

Who was studied 341,875 European ancestry individuals, 6,003 African ancestry individuals, 7,319 South Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0645 higher (95% confidence interval 0.055-0.074); p = 6 × 10−44.

Where it sits Chromosome 19, band 19p13.2 — between genes, 0.7 kb from SMARCA4.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Low density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Low density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Low density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs36005514

What is rs36005514?

rs36005514 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near SMARCA4 gene. Published research associates it with low density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs36005514 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 rs36005514 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2021, PMID:33462484. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
