What the study found

Who was studied 261 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 121,279 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 568 European ancestry cases, 449,644 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 2.75 lower (95% confidence interval 2.71-2.78); p = 4 × 10−12.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 100% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 18, band 18p11.21 — between genes, 6.8 kb from ANKRD62.

What each result means

G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Ankylosis of joint (PheCode 741.1) — no copies of the reported risk allele.
G/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Ankylosis of joint (PheCode 741.1).
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Ankylosis of joint (PheCode 741.1) compared to the general population.

Questions about rs549508457

What is rs549508457?

rs549508457 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near ANKRD62 gene. Published research associates it with ankylosis of joint (phecode 741.1). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs549508457 linked to?

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

Does having rs549508457 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 rs549508457 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2024, PMID:39024449. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
