Plantar warts

CRCT1 · rs6692209

Where this position leads

Condition: Tonsillectomy (Throat Infection Susceptibility)

What the study found

Who was studied 24,994 European ancestry cases, 37,451 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 1.08 higher (95% confidence interval 1.06-1.09); p = 5 × 10⁻⁹.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 62% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1q21.3 — between genes, 18 kb from CRCT1.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Plantar warts — no copies of the reported risk allele.

C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Plantar warts.

T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Plantar warts compared to the general population.

Questions about rs6692209

What is rs6692209?

rs6692209 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CRCT1 gene. Published research associates it with plantar warts. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs6692209 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Tonsillectomy (Throat Infection Susceptibility). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs6692209 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 rs6692209 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Commun 2017, PMID:28928442. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
