Questions about rs77768175

What is rs77768175?

rs77768175 is a single position in the genome, in or near the HECTD4 gene. Published research associates it with high density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs77768175 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 rs77768175 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 rs77768175 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Sci Rep 2019, PMID:30718733. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
