What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Lung adenocarcinoma — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Am J Hum Genet 2009, PMID:19836008)
A/C Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Lung adenocarcinoma. (GWAS Catalog, Am J Hum Genet 2009, PMID:19836008)
C/C Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Lung adenocarcinoma compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Am J Hum Genet 2009, PMID:19836008)

Questions about rs31489

What is rs31489?

rs31489 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CLPTM1L gene. Published research associates it with lung adenocarcinoma. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs31489 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 rs31489 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Am J Hum Genet 2009, PMID:19836008. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
