What the study found

Who was studied 264 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 121,400 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 403 European ancestry cases, 450,539 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 4.26 lower (95% confidence interval 4.25-4.27); p = 7 × 10−12.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7q36.3 — between genes, 36.7 kb from DNAJB6.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Chronic glomerulonephritis, NOS (PheCode 580.14). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/C One copy of the version the research linked to Chronic glomerulonephritis, NOS (PheCode 580.14). That is a smaller link than two copies.
C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Chronic glomerulonephritis, NOS (PheCode 580.14). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs557661665

What is rs557661665?

rs557661665 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near DNAJB6 gene. Published research associates it with chronic glomerulonephritis, nos (phecode 580.14). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs557661665 linked to?

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

Does having rs557661665 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 rs557661665 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.
