LDLR protein levels

near RPL30P9 · rs7001307

What the study found

Who was studied 47,745 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0596 lower (95% confidence interval 0.046-0.073); p = 6 × 10−21.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 19% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8p21.3 — between genes, 31.9 kb from RPL30P9.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of LDLR protein levels compared to the general population.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with LDLR protein levels.
T/T Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of LDLR protein levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs7001307

What is rs7001307?

rs7001307 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near RPL30P9 gene. Published research associates it with ldlr protein levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7001307 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 rs7001307 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2025, PMID:39789286. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
