No Genome Test report reads CCR2 yet. The test sequences your whole genome, so your data includes it all the same.
How CCR2 is laid out
- Coding sequence
- Untranslated region
- Intron
- Direction of transcription
- Known disease-causing sites
Exons of the gene's MANE Select transcript (release v1.5), from NCBI and EMBL-EBI, on the GRCh38 reference genome.
Chromosome bands from UCSC's GRCh38 ideogram (2022-10-29).
Nearby genes from Ensembl release 116, on GRCh38.
Exons make up 3.5 kb of the gene's 6.8 kb; 1,083 of those bases code for the protein.
Sequencing CCR2
1
position in CCR2 where ClinVar classes a change as pathogenic or likely pathogenic
None of them falls in a region short reads find hard.
A whole genome covers all 6.8 kb of CCR2, introns included, not only the 3.5 kb of exons.
ClinVar pathogenic variants (1)
The CCR2 variants ClinVar classifies pathogenic or likely pathogenic for any condition, reviewed by at least one submitter with criteria, and the most reviewed of them. It is ClinVar's public record of the gene, never a result.
- Likely pathogenic 1
