Lipopolysaccharide-binding protein levels

LBP · rs5744204

What the study found

Who was studied 2,935 Qatari ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.941 lower (95% confidence interval 0.87-1.01); p = 4 × 10−142.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 16% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 20, band 20q11.23 — a missense change in LBP.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Lipopolysaccharide-binding protein levels compared to the general population.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Lipopolysaccharide-binding protein levels.
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Lipopolysaccharide-binding protein levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs5744204

What is rs5744204?

rs5744204 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LBP gene. Published research associates it with lipopolysaccharide-binding protein levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs5744204 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 rs5744204 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Human molecular genetics 2023, PMID:36168886. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
