Who was studied 353,466 European ancestry individuals, 83,025 East Asian ancestry individuals.
The effect
Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0122 lower (95% confidence interval 0.0079-0.0165); p = 3 × 10−8.
Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6q21 — in an intron of CCDC162P.
What each result means
C/CTwo copies of the version the research linked to C-reactive protein. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/TOne copy of the version the research linked to C-reactive protein. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/TNo copy of the version the research linked to C-reactive protein. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
rs1546721 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CCDC162P gene. Published research associates it with c-reactive protein. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs1546721 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 rs1546721 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 rs1546721 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2021, PMID:34594039. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
