CABP1 · rs61945940

What the study found

Who was studied 337,739 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.027 lower (95% confidence interval 0.019-0.035); p = 2 × 10−10.

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12q24.31 — in an intron of CABP1.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Whole body fat free mass (UKB data field 23101) — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Whole body fat free mass (UKB data field 23101).
G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Whole body fat free mass (UKB data field 23101) compared to the general population.

Questions about rs61945940

What is rs61945940?

rs61945940 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CABP1 gene. Published research associates it with whole body fat free mass (ukb data field 23101). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs61945940 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 rs61945940 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Scientific reports 2024, PMID:38538606. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
