What the study found

Who was studied 88,965 European ancestry cases, 685,602 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele carried 1.03 times the odds of Asthma or chronic rhinosinusitis (95% confidence interval 1.021-1.042); p = 1 × 10−9.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 50% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10q23.33 — between genes, 49.7 kb from EXOC6.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Asthma or chronic rhinosinusitis. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Asthma or chronic rhinosinusitis. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Asthma or chronic rhinosinusitis. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs2901610

What is rs2901610?

rs2901610 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near EXOC6 gene. Published research associates it with asthma or chronic rhinosinusitis. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs2901610 linked to?

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

Does having rs2901610 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 rs2901610 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2025, PMID:41213931. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
