Omega-6 fatty acid percentage of total fatty acids

GSTA11P · rs9370162

What the study found

Who was studied 199,732 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0281 lower (95% confidence interval 0.022-0.034); p = 2 × 10−19.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 43% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p12.2 — in an intron of GSTA11P.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Omega-6 fatty acid percentage of total fatty acids. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Omega-6 fatty acid percentage of total fatty acids. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Omega-6 fatty acid percentage of total fatty acids. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs9370162

What is rs9370162?

rs9370162 is a single position in the genome, in or near the GSTA11P gene. Published research associates it with omega-6 fatty acid percentage of total fatty acids. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs9370162 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 rs9370162 come from?

GWAS Catalog, British journal of cancer 2025, PMID:40307439. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
