What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Saturated fatty acids to total fatty acids percentage. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Saturated fatty acids to total fatty acids percentage. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Saturated fatty acids to total fatty acids percentage. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs62132802

What is rs62132802?

rs62132802 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near FGF21 gene. Published research associates it with saturated fatty acids to total fatty acids percentage. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs62132802 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 rs62132802 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.
