Interleukin-18 receptor accessory protein protein levels (SomaScan ID:23030-4)

near RPL7P51 · rs7259861

What the study found

Who was studied 197 Shetland Isles origin ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 1.09 lower (95% confidence interval 0.86-1.33); p = 2 × 10−17.

Where it sits Chromosome 19, band 19q13.41 — between genes, 7.9 kb from RPL7P51.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Interleukin-18 receptor accessory protein protein levels (SomaScan ID:23030-4). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/C One copy of the version the research linked to Interleukin-18 receptor accessory protein protein levels (SomaScan ID:23030-4). That is a smaller link than two copies.
C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Interleukin-18 receptor accessory protein protein levels (SomaScan ID:23030-4). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs7259861

What is rs7259861?

rs7259861 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near RPL7P51 gene. Published research associates it with interleukin-18 receptor accessory protein protein levels (somascan id:23030-4). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7259861 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 rs7259861 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Communications biology 2025, PMID:40883583. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
