C/CPublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Asthma and hay fever compared to the general population.
C/TPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Asthma and hay fever.
T/TPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Asthma and hay fever — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs62026376
What is rs62026376?
rs62026376 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CLEC16A gene. Published research associates it with asthma and hay fever. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs62026376 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Asthma. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs62026376 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 rs62026376 come from?
GWAS Catalog, J Allergy Clin Immunol 2013, PMID:24388013. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
