Cholesterol, total

UBASH3B · rs7941030

Where this position leads

Condition: Cholesterol (LDL, HDL and Total)

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 C allele shifted the measure 0.028 higher; p = 2 × 10⁻¹⁴.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 39% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q24.1 — between genes, 4.1 kb from UBASH3B.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Cholesterol, total. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Cholesterol, total. That is a smaller link than two copies.

T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Cholesterol, total. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs7941030

What is rs7941030?

rs7941030 is a single position in the genome, in or near the UBASH3B gene. Published research associates it with cholesterol, total. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs7941030 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 rs7941030 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 rs7941030 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.
