What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Allergic sensitization — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2013, PMID:23817571)
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Allergic sensitization. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2013, PMID:23817571)
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Allergic sensitization compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2013, PMID:23817571)

Questions about rs1059513

What is rs1059513?

rs1059513 is a single position in the genome, in or near the STAT6 gene. Published research associates it with allergic sensitization. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What do people read about alongside rs1059513?

Subjects that appear in the title or abstract of the same papers as this rsID include allergies (2 papers). A shared paper means somebody wrote about the two together; it is not a claim that this position explains the topic.

Does having rs1059513 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 rs1059513 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2013, PMID:23817571. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
