Where this position leads

What the study found

Who was studied 63,678 European ancestry individuals 1,792 Erasmus Rucphen individuals, 715 Orcadian individuals; replicated in 16,540 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.054 higher (95% confidence interval 0.03-0.07); p = 4 × 10⁻⁹.

Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7q11.23 — in an intron of BCL7B.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to C-reactive protein levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

C/T One copy of the version the research linked to C-reactive protein levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.

T/T No copy of the version the research linked to C-reactive protein levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs13233571

What is rs13233571?

rs13233571 is a single position in the genome, in or near the BCL7B gene. Published research associates it with c-reactive protein levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs13233571 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to C-Reactive Protein Levels. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs13233571 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 rs13233571 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Circulation 2011, PMID:21300955. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
