A/APublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Systemic lupus erythematosus compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Ann Rheum Dis 2020, PMID:33272962)
A/GPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Systemic lupus erythematosus. (GWAS Catalog, Ann Rheum Dis 2020, PMID:33272962)
G/GPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Systemic lupus erythematosus — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Ann Rheum Dis 2020, PMID:33272962)

Questions about rs17206287
What is rs17206287?
rs17206287 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near HLA-DQA2 gene. Published research associates it with systemic lupus erythematosus. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs17206287 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Systemic Lupus Erythematosus. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs17206287 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 rs17206287 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Ann Rheum Dis 2020, PMID:33272962. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
