Questions about rs7518687

What is rs7518687?

rs7518687 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near DPT gene. Published research associates it with hepatitis. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs7518687 linked to?

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

Does having rs7518687 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 rs7518687 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Genomics Inform 2014, PMID:25705159. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
