C-C motif chemokine 16 levels

CCL16 · rs112689088

What the study found

Who was studied 2,935 Qatari ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 1.18 lower (95% confidence interval 1.12-1.25); p = 6 × 10−274.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 19% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17q12 — in an intron of CCL16.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of C-C motif chemokine 16 levels compared to the general population.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with C-C motif chemokine 16 levels.
T/T Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of C-C motif chemokine 16 levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs112689088

What is rs112689088?

rs112689088 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CCL16 gene. Published research associates it with c-c motif chemokine 16 levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs112689088 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 rs112689088 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Human molecular genetics 2023, PMID:36168886. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
