Where this position leads

What the study found

Who was studied 1,656 Han Chinese ancestry cases, 3,394 Han Chinese ancestry controls; replicated in 3,256 Han Chinese ancestry cases, 5,667 Han Chinese ancestry controls, 453 Thai ancestry cases, 963 Thai ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele carried 1.47 times the odds of Systemic lupus erythematosus (95% confidence interval -); p = 1 × 10⁻⁹.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 66% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7q32.1 — between genes, 4.5 kb from IRF5.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Systemic lupus erythematosus. 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 Systemic lupus erythematosus. That is a smaller link than two copies.

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Systemic lupus erythematosus. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs729302

What is rs729302?

rs729302 is a single position in the genome, in or near the IRF5 gene. Published research associates it with systemic lupus erythematosus. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs729302 linked to?

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

What do people read about alongside rs729302?

Subjects that appear in the title or abstract of the same papers as this rsID include allergies (1 papers). A shared paper means somebody wrote about the two together; it is not a claim that this position explains the topic.

Does having rs729302 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 rs729302 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Am J Hum Genet 2012, PMID:23273568. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
