Where this position leads

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Coronary artery disease — no copies of the reported risk allele.

C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Coronary artery disease.

T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Coronary artery disease compared to the general population.

Questions about rs56336142

What is rs56336142?

rs56336142 is a single position in the genome, in or near the KCNK5 gene. Published research associates it with coronary artery disease. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs56336142 linked to?

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

Does having rs56336142 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 rs56336142 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2015, PMID:26343387. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
