Interleukin-12 subunit beta levels

IL12B-AS1 · rs3213119

What the study found

Who was studied 10,708 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 1.09 lower (95% confidence interval 1.02-1.16); p = 2 × 10−198.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 3% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q33.3 — a missense change in IL12B-AS1.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Interleukin-12 subunit beta levels compared to the general population.
A/C Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Interleukin-12 subunit beta levels.
C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Interleukin-12 subunit beta levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs3213119

What is rs3213119?

rs3213119 is a single position in the genome, in or near the IL12B-AS1 gene. Published research associates it with interleukin-12 subunit beta levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs3213119 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 rs3213119 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2021, PMID:34648354. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
