C6orf47 · rs148844907
Where this position leads
Condition: Tuberculosis
What the study found
Who was studied 4,426 European ancestry cases, 84,290 European ancestry controls.
The effect Each copy of the A allele carried 1.92 times the odds of Tuberculosis (95% confidence interval 1.74-2.12); p = 2 × 10−12.
How common The A allele had a frequency of about 1% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p21.33 — in the 5′ untranslated region of C6orf47.
rs148844907 is a single position in the genome, in or near the C6orf47 gene. Published research associates it with tuberculosis. 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 Tuberculosis. 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.
