What the study found

Who was studied 517 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 119,658 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 721 European ancestry cases, 447,813 European ancestry controls, 301 Hispanic or Latin American cases, 58,660 Hispanic or Latin American controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 2.92 lower (95% confidence interval 2.89-2.96); p = 3 × 10−11.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7q31.31 — between genes, 47.3 kb from GTF3AP6.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Acute tonsillitis (PheCode 474.1). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Acute tonsillitis (PheCode 474.1). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Acute tonsillitis (PheCode 474.1). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs552949394

What is rs552949394?

rs552949394 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near GTF3AP6 gene. Published research associates it with acute tonsillitis (phecode 474.1). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs552949394 linked to?

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

Does having rs552949394 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 rs552949394 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.
