What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Asthma — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2017, PMID:29273806)
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Asthma. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2017, PMID:29273806)
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Asthma compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2017, PMID:29273806)

Questions about rs1420101

What is rs1420101?

rs1420101 is a single position in the genome, in or near the IL1RL1 gene. Published research associates it with asthma. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs1420101 linked to?

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

Does having rs1420101 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 rs1420101 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2017, PMID:29273806. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
