Inducible T-cell costimulator levels (ICOS.14084.191.3)

NUS1 · rs2498589

What the study found

Who was studied 3,301 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.28 lower (95% confidence interval -0.22--0.34); p = 2 × 10−16.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 15% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6q22.1 — in the 3′ untranslated region of NUS1.

What each result means

G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Inducible T-cell costimulator levels (ICOS.14084.191.3). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
G/T One copy of the version the research linked to Inducible T-cell costimulator levels (ICOS.14084.191.3). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Inducible T-cell costimulator levels (ICOS.14084.191.3). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs2498589

What is rs2498589?

rs2498589 is a single position in the genome, in or near the NUS1 gene. Published research associates it with inducible t-cell costimulator levels (icos.14084.191.3). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs2498589 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 rs2498589 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature 2018, PMID:29875488. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
