Questions about rs2021783

What is rs2021783?

rs2021783 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CYP21A2 gene. Published research associates it with systolic blood pressure. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs2021783 linked to?

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

Does having rs2021783 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 rs2021783 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Hum Mol Genet 2014, PMID:25249183. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
