Where this position leads

What the study found

Who was studied 60,653 European ancestry cases, 804,329 European ancestry controls; replicated in 387,407 European ancestry cases, 2,517,257 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele carried 1.03 times the odds of Atopic dermatitis (95% confidence interval 1.03-1.04); p = 9 × 10⁻²⁷.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 40% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 12, band 12q13.2 — in an intron of RAB5B.

What each result means

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

A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Atopic dermatitis.

G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Atopic dermatitis — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs705699

What is rs705699?

rs705699 is a single position in the genome, in or near the RAB5B gene. Published research associates it with atopic dermatitis. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs705699 linked to?

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

Does having rs705699 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 rs705699 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2023, PMID:37794016. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
