Where this position leads
Condition: Type 1 Diabetes
What the study found
Who was studied 6,670 European ancestry cases, 22,308 European ancestry controls.
The effect The reported allele is G; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 2 × 10−20.
How common The G allele had a frequency of about 9% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16q23.1 — between genes, 5.5 kb from CTRB1.
rs7202844 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near CTRB1 gene. Published research associates it with type 1 diabetes. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Type 1 Diabetes. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
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.
