Polyunsaturated fatty acids to monounsaturated fatty acids ratio

SCPPPQ1 · rs56324651

What the study found

Who was studied 239,268 European ancestry individuals.

The effect The reported allele is C; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 1 × 10−9.

Where it sits Chromosome 4, band 4q22.1 — in an intron of SCPPPQ1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs56324651

What is rs56324651?

rs56324651 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SCPPPQ1 gene. Published research associates it with polyunsaturated fatty acids to monounsaturated fatty acids ratio. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs56324651 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 rs56324651 come from?

GWAS Catalog, HGG advances 2025, PMID:40545721. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
