Monounsaturated fatty acids to total fatty acids percentage

CSGALNACT1 · rs7816807

Strength of the evidence

1 / 4

Its strongest genetic-study result is p = 10−11, with 2 associations in the GWAS Catalog.

How this is scored

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 110,346 European ancestry males.

The effect The reported allele is A; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 3 × 10−11.

Where it sits Chromosome 8, band 8p21.3 — in an intron of CSGALNACT1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs7816807

What is rs7816807?

rs7816807 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CSGALNACT1 gene. Published research associates it with monounsaturated fatty acids to total fatty acids percentage. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7816807 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 rs7816807 come from?

GWAS Catalog, HGG advances 2025, PMID:40545721. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
