A/APublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of C-reactive protein compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Am J Hum Genet 2012, PMID:22939635)
A/GPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with C-reactive protein. (GWAS Catalog, Am J Hum Genet 2012, PMID:22939635)
G/GPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of C-reactive protein — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Am J Hum Genet 2012, PMID:22939635)

Questions about rs1805096
What is rs1805096?
rs1805096 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LEPR 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 rs1805096 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 rs1805096 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 rs1805096 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Am J Hum Genet 2012, PMID:22939635. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
