What the study found

Who was studied 94,595 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 93,982 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.024 higher; p = 6 × 10−12.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 45% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7p22.1 — in the 3′ untranslated region of DAGLB.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs702485

What is rs702485?

rs702485 is a single position in the genome, in or near the DAGLB gene. Published research associates it with hdl cholesterol. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs702485 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Cholesterol (LDL, HDL and Total). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs702485 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 rs702485 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2013, PMID:24097068. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
