C5orf67 · rs3843467

What the study found

Who was studied 38,965 European ancestry, East Asian ancestry, South Asian ancestry, African ancestry, NR ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.091 lower (95% confidence interval 0.073-0.109); p = 5 × 10−27.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 79% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q11.2 — in an intron of C5orf67.

What each result means

G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Abdominal adipose tissue volumes to gluteofemoral adipose tissue volumes ratio. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
G/T One copy of the version the research linked to Abdominal adipose tissue volumes to gluteofemoral adipose tissue volumes ratio. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Abdominal adipose tissue volumes to gluteofemoral adipose tissue volumes ratio. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs3843467

What is rs3843467?

rs3843467 is a single position in the genome, in or near the C5orf67 gene. Published research associates it with abdominal adipose tissue volumes to gluteofemoral adipose tissue volumes ratio. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs3843467 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 rs3843467 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2022, PMID:35773277. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
