GIMAP7 · rs55700285

What the study found

Who was studied 408,112 British individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0236 higher (95% confidence interval 0.018-0.029); p = 5 × 10−19.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 23% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7q36.1 — between genes, 0 kb from STRADBP1.

What each result means

G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Lymphocyte count — 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 Lymphocyte count.
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Lymphocyte count compared to the general population.

Questions about rs55700285

What is rs55700285?

rs55700285 is a single position in the genome, in or near the GIMAP7 gene. Published research associates it with lymphocyte count. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs55700285 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 rs55700285 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Cell 2020, PMID:32888494. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
