Stands on its own.
Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the
research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can
read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.
What each result means
C/C
Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Proinsulin levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.
C/G
Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Proinsulin levels.
G/G
Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Proinsulin levels compared to the general population.

Papers in Europe PMC whose title or abstract names both this rsID and that subject. A shared paper means somebody wrote about the two together — it is not a claim that this position explains the subject.
Questions about rs6235
What is rs6235?
rs6235 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PCSK1 gene. Published research associates it with proinsulin levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What do people read about alongside rs6235?
Subjects that appear in the title or abstract of the same papers as this rsID include blood sugar and insulin (8 papers), cholesterol and blood fats (1 papers), exercise and muscle (1 papers). A shared paper means somebody wrote about the two together; it is not a claim that this position explains the topic.
Does having rs6235 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 rs6235 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Diabetes 2011, PMID:21873549. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
