What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Late-onset myasthenia gravis — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Mol Med 2015, PMID:26562150)
C/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Late-onset myasthenia gravis. (GWAS Catalog, Mol Med 2015, PMID:26562150)
G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Late-onset myasthenia gravis compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Mol Med 2015, PMID:26562150)

Questions about rs111945767

What is rs111945767?

rs111945767 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MHC_Class II gene. Published research associates it with late-onset myasthenia gravis. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs111945767 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 rs111945767 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Mol Med 2015, PMID:26562150. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
