Hi jroc,

Did you really mean you were heterozygote C;T at rs2287987 because that would correspond with M;V

For sure you are going to have the *001 allotype, which is fairly common in controls (21%) and even more abundant in AS cases (44%), bearing in mind that their sampled groups contained just 19 controls and 17 AS patients.

If you are homozygote C;C at rs2287987 then your analysis as *001 and *012 allotype pair is correct - which is a disease associated allotype pair.


Dx Oct 2006 B27+ undifferentiated spondlyarthropathy (uSpA) with mild sebhorrhoeic dermatitis and mild Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) controlled by NSD since 2007.
