CD28 on resting CD4 regulatory T cell

near KRT18P39 · rs62184016

What the study found

Who was studied 2,919 Sardinian (founder/genetic isolate) ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.518 lower (95% confidence interval 0.45-0.58); p = 7 × 10−52.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 20% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q33.2 — between genes, 5.5 kb from KRT18P39.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to CD28 on resting CD4 regulatory T cell. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to CD28 on resting CD4 regulatory T cell. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to CD28 on resting CD4 regulatory T cell. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs62184016

What is rs62184016?

rs62184016 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near KRT18P39 gene. Published research associates it with cd28 on resting cd4 regulatory t cell. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs62184016 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 rs62184016 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2020, PMID:32929287. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
