Trait
Increased CD8+ TEMRA T cell proportion
An increased proportion of CD8-positive effector memory RA TEMRA T cells compared to the total number of T cells in the blood. These cells have the phenotype CD45RA-positive, CD45RO-negative, and CCR7-negative.

Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Increased CD8+ TEMRA T cell proportion is seen. Most people with this trait have none of those conditions, and a gene on this list says nothing about anyone's own genome.
How often is among people with one of the gene's conditions, the most often across them, as the Human Phenotype Ontology records it. These pages describe traits and the research behind them; they are not a diagnosis, and a doctor or genetic counsellor is the person to ask about symptoms.
