Basophil side fluorescence

TPSB2 · rs557661075

What the study found

Who was studied 30,327 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.154 SD units higher (95% confidence interval 0.11-0.2); p = 3 × 10−10.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 4% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16p13.3 — in the 3′ untranslated region of TPSB2.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs557661075

What is rs557661075?

rs557661075 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TPSB2 gene. Published research associates it with basophil side fluorescence. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs557661075 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 rs557661075 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2023, PMID:37596262. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
