research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can

What each result means
C/C
Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Self-reported allergy compared to the general population.
C/T
Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Self-reported allergy.
T/T
Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Self-reported allergy — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs6021270
What is rs6021270?
rs6021270 is a single position in the genome, in or near the NFATC2 gene. Published research associates it with self-reported allergy. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
Does having rs6021270 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 rs6021270 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2013, PMID:23817569. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
