Butyrophilin subfamily 2 member A2 levels

BTN2A2 · rs11756444

What the study found

Who was studied 2,549 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 1.67 lower (95% confidence interval 1.57-1.77); p = 8 × 10−205.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p22.2 — in an intron of BTN2A2.

What each result means

G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Butyrophilin subfamily 2 member A2 levels compared to the general population.
G/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Butyrophilin subfamily 2 member A2 levels.
T/T Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Butyrophilin subfamily 2 member A2 levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs11756444

What is rs11756444?

rs11756444 is a single position in the genome, in or near the BTN2A2 gene. Published research associates it with butyrophilin subfamily 2 member a2 levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs11756444 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 rs11756444 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2024, PMID:39528825. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
