What the study found

Who was studied 47,745 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.259 higher (95% confidence interval 0.18-0.34); p = 8 × 10−12.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 1% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 18, band 18q22.1 — between genes, 6.1 kb from SERPINB8.

What each result means

G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to SERPINB8 protein levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
G/T One copy of the version the research linked to SERPINB8 protein levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to SERPINB8 protein levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs556872466

What is rs556872466?

rs556872466 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near SERPINB8 gene. Published research associates it with serpinb8 protein levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs556872466 linked to?

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

Does having rs556872466 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 rs556872466 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2025, PMID:39789286. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
