near H2BC13 · rs72845070

What the study found

Who was studied 6,684 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.363 lower; p = 2 × 10−24.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p22.1 — in an intron of LINC01012.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Diacylglycerol (16:0/18:0) (Model 1) compared to the general population.
A/C Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Diacylglycerol (16:0/18:0) (Model 1).
C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Diacylglycerol (16:0/18:0) (Model 1) — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs72845070

What is rs72845070?

rs72845070 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near H2BC13 gene. Published research associates it with diacylglycerol (16:0/18:0) (model 1). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs72845070 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 rs72845070 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2026, PMID:42069741. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
