Macrophage-capping protein levels

SH2D6 · rs62162757

What the study found

Who was studied 3,506 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.292 higher (95% confidence interval 0.25-0.34); p = 1 × 10−35.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 30% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2p11.2 — in an intron of SH2D6.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Macrophage-capping protein levels. 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 Macrophage-capping protein levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Macrophage-capping protein levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs62162757

What is rs62162757?

rs62162757 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SH2D6 gene. Published research associates it with macrophage-capping protein levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs62162757 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 rs62162757 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2024, PMID:39528825. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
