near AGPAT4 · rs9458183

What the study found

Who was studied 394,642 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0448 lower (95% confidence interval 0.035-0.054); p = 2 × 10−20.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 6% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6q26 — between genes, 29.3 kb from AGPAT4.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Lipoprotein A levels (UKB data field 30790) — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Lipoprotein A levels (UKB data field 30790).
G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Lipoprotein A levels (UKB data field 30790) compared to the general population.

Questions about rs9458183

What is rs9458183?

rs9458183 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near AGPAT4 gene. Published research associates it with lipoprotein a levels (ukb data field 30790). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs9458183 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 rs9458183 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2025, PMID:39789286. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
