What the study found

Who was studied 47,745 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0551 lower (95% confidence interval 0.046-0.065); p = 2 × 10−51.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 17% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 14, band 14q32.12 — inside CATSPERB.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to COL2A1 protein levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/C One copy of the version the research linked to COL2A1 protein levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to COL2A1 protein levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs61269268

What is rs61269268?

rs61269268 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CATSPERB gene. Published research associates it with col2a1 protein levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs61269268 linked to?

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

Does having rs61269268 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 rs61269268 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2025, PMID:39789286. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
