interleukin 17 receptor B levels

CHDH · rs6801605

What the study found

Who was studied up to 970 individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.56 lower (95% confidence interval 0.43-0.69); p = 2 × 10−18.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 35% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3p21.1 — in an intron of CHDH.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to interleukin 17 receptor B levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to interleukin 17 receptor B levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to interleukin 17 receptor B levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs6801605

What is rs6801605?

rs6801605 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CHDH gene. Published research associates it with interleukin 17 receptor b levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs6801605 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 rs6801605 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2014, PMID:25147954. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
