Eosinophil percentage of white cells

CD200 · rs9990220

What the study found

Who was studied 172,378 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0296 lower (95% confidence interval 0.023-0.037); p = 2 × 10−16.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 44% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3q13.2 — in an intron of CD200.

What each result means

G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Eosinophil percentage of white cells. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
G/T One copy of the version the research linked to Eosinophil percentage of white cells. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Eosinophil percentage of white cells. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs9990220

What is rs9990220?

rs9990220 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CD200 gene. Published research associates it with eosinophil percentage of white cells. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs9990220 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 rs9990220 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Cell 2016, PMID:27863252. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
