Dyslipidemia (additive model)

near HLA-DQA1 · rs55651120

What the study found

Who was studied 30,244 European ancestry cases, 26,393 European ancestry controls.

The effect The reported allele is T; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 5 × 10−11.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 10% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p21.32 — between genes, 5 kb from HLA-DQA1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs55651120

What is rs55651120?

rs55651120 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near HLA-DQA1 gene. Published research associates it with dyslipidemia (additive model). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs55651120 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 rs55651120 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2021, PMID:33893285. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
