LINC02098 · rs7108244

What the study found

Who was studied 394,642 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0151 lower (95% confidence interval 0.011-0.019); p = 4 × 10−15.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 46% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q24.3 — in an intron of LINC02098.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Neutrophill count (UKB data field 30140) compared to the general population.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Neutrophill count (UKB data field 30140).
T/T Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Neutrophill count (UKB data field 30140) — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs7108244

What is rs7108244?

rs7108244 is a single position in the genome, in or near the LINC02098 gene. Published research associates it with neutrophill count (ukb data field 30140). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7108244 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 rs7108244 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2025, PMID:39789286. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
