CMTM7 · rs62252134

What the study found

Who was studied 269,545 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0349 lower (95% confidence interval 0.026-0.044); p = 3 × 10−13.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3p22.3 — inside CMTM7.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to LDL (standard GWA). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/G One copy of the version the research linked to LDL (standard GWA). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to LDL (standard GWA). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs62252134

What is rs62252134?

rs62252134 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CMTM7 gene. Published research associates it with ldl (standard gwa). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs62252134 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 rs62252134 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature human behaviour 2023, PMID:37106081. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
