EVI5 · rs4847267

What the study found

Who was studied 507,850 East Asian ancestry individuals, 420,829 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0257 higher (95% confidence interval 0.022-0.03); p = 5 × 10−33.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p22.1 — in an intron of EVI5.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs4847267

What is rs4847267?

rs4847267 is a single position in the genome, in or near the EVI5 gene. Published research associates it with total 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 rs4847267 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 rs4847267 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2025, PMID:40436827. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
