BCL10 · rs12562182
Where this position leads
Condition: Multiple Sclerosis
Strength of the evidence
Its strongest genetic-study result is p = 10−19, with 2 associations in the GWAS Catalog.
4: ClinVar disease-causing, reviewed by an expert panel or a guideline (3–4 stars). 3: ClinVar, several labs agreeing (2 stars), or a genetic study at p ≤ 10−50. 2: ClinVar from one lab (1 star), or p ≤ 10−20. 1: ClinVar submitted without criteria (0 stars), or genome-wide significance (p ≤ 5×10−8). The higher of the two counts. It says how solid the evidence is, not whether it matters for a particular person.
What the study found
Who was studied 688 Japanese ancestry cases, 205,199 Japanese ancestry controls, 27,572 European ancestry cases, 1,436,801 European ancestry controls, 819 African ancestry cases, 155,904 African ancestry controls, 295 American ancestry ancestry cases, 45,659 American ancestry ancestry controls.
The effect Each copy of the C allele carried 1.17 times the odds of Multiple sclerosis (95% confidence interval 1.13-1.21); p = 1 × 10−19.

What this is ClinVar's aggregate record for this position (as of its 2026-10-19 release), not a result about you. A classification describes the variant against the condition named, as laboratories submitted it. Whether a person carries this variant, and what that would mean for them, is a question for a clinical test and a genetic counsellor.
rs12562182 is a single position in the genome, in or near the BCL10 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.
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Multiple Sclerosis. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
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.
