Triacylglycerol (54:3) levels

SIK3 · rs6589574

What the study found

Who was studied 4,642 European ancestry women.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.192 higher (95% confidence interval 0.13-0.25); p = 2 × 10−9.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q23.3 — in an intron of SIK3.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Triacylglycerol (54:3) levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Triacylglycerol (54:3) levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Triacylglycerol (54:3) levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs6589574

What is rs6589574?

rs6589574 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SIK3 gene. Published research associates it with triacylglycerol (54:3) levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs6589574 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 rs6589574 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Journal of the American Heart Association 2022, PMID:36193934. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
