What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Tooth agenesis (maxillary lateral incisors) — no copies of the reported risk allele.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Tooth agenesis (maxillary lateral incisors).
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Tooth agenesis (maxillary lateral incisors) compared to the general population.

Questions about rs55846652

What is rs55846652?

rs55846652 is a single position in the genome, in or near the EDA gene. Published research associates it with tooth agenesis (maxillary lateral incisors). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs55846652 linked to?

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

Does having rs55846652 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 rs55846652 come from?

GWAS Catalog, J Dent Res 2018, PMID:29364747. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
