Butyrophilin subfamily 2 member A1 levels

near HCG20 · rs3129984

What the study found

Who was studied 3,506 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.322 higher (95% confidence interval 0.25-0.4); p = 2 × 10−17.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 10% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p21.33 — between genes, 1.5 kb from HCG20.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Butyrophilin subfamily 2 member A1 levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Butyrophilin subfamily 2 member A1 levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Butyrophilin subfamily 2 member A1 levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs3129984

What is rs3129984?

rs3129984 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near HCG20 gene. Published research associates it with butyrophilin subfamily 2 member a1 levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs3129984 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 rs3129984 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2024, PMID:39528825. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
