What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Triglycerides — 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 Triglycerides.
G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Triglycerides compared to the general population.

Questions about rs62436827

What is rs62436827?

rs62436827 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CCR6 gene. Published research associates it with triglycerides. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs62436827 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to High Triglycerides. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs62436827 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 rs62436827 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Commun 2014, PMID:24886709. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
