What the study found

Who was studied 8,684 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 9,741 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 3.62 mg/dl higher; p = 2 × 10−8.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 33% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 15, band 15q21.3 — inside ALDH1A2.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs4775041

What is rs4775041?

rs4775041 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LIPC gene. Published research associates it with triglycerides. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs4775041 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to High Triglycerides. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

What do people read about alongside rs4775041?

Subjects that appear in the title or abstract of the same papers as this rsID include cholesterol and blood fats (2 papers), blood sugar and insulin (1 papers). A shared paper means somebody wrote about the two together; it is not a claim that this position explains the topic.

Does having rs4775041 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 rs4775041 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2008, PMID:18193043. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
