Questions about rs11161550

What is rs11161550?

rs11161550 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SYDE2 gene. Published research associates it with multiple sclerosis. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs11161550 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Multiple Sclerosis. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs11161550 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 rs11161550 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science 2019, PMID:31604244. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
