CD16-CD56 on HLA DR+ Natural Killer

near NCAM1-AS2 · rs78358948

What the study found

Who was studied 2,971 Sardinian (founder/genetic isolate) ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.34 lower (95% confidence interval 0.26-0.42); p = 1 × 10−15.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 11% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q23.2 — between genes, 78 kb from NCAM1-AS2.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to CD16-CD56 on HLA DR+ Natural Killer. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to CD16-CD56 on HLA DR+ Natural Killer. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to CD16-CD56 on HLA DR+ Natural Killer. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs78358948

What is rs78358948?

rs78358948 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near NCAM1-AS2 gene. Published research associates it with cd16-cd56 on hla dr+ natural killer. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs78358948 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 rs78358948 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2020, PMID:32929287. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
