What the study found

Who was studied 4,738 European ancestry female cases, 436,834 European ancestry female controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele carried 0.57 times the odds of Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (95% confidence interval 0.53-0.63); p = 8 × 10−36.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 7% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2q31.1 — in an intron of ABCB11.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy compared to the general population.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy.
T/T Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs6733156

What is rs6733156?

rs6733156 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ABCB11 gene. Published research associates it with intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs6733156 linked to?

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

Does having rs6733156 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 rs6733156 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2026, PMID:42178310. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
