Where this position leads
Condition: Metabolic Syndrome
Strength of the evidence
Its strongest genetic-study result is p = 10−8, with 1 associations in the GWAS Catalog.
4: ClinVar disease-causing, reviewed by an expert panel or a guideline (3–4 stars). 3: ClinVar, several labs agreeing (2 stars), or a genetic study at p ≤ 10−50. 2: ClinVar from one lab (1 star), or p ≤ 10−20. 1: ClinVar submitted without criteria (0 stars), or genome-wide significance (p ≤ 5×10−8). The higher of the two counts. It says how solid the evidence is, not whether it matters for a particular person.
What the study found
Who was studied 24,171 Taiwanese ancestry cases, 83,059 Taiwanese ancestry controls.
The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.1 lower (95% confidence interval 0.066-0.134); p = 7 × 10−9.
How common The T allele had a frequency of about 10% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7q11.23 — between genes, 3.7 kb from MLXIPL.
rs7805504 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near MLXIPL gene. Published research associates it with metabolic syndrome. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Metabolic Syndrome. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
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.
