What the study found

Who was studied 36,760 European ancestry cases, 375,188 European ancestry controls.

The effect The reported allele is T; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 7 × 10−12.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 2% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 15, band 15q13.3 — in an intron of FMN1.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Cutaneous malignant melanoma. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Cutaneous malignant melanoma. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Cutaneous malignant melanoma. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs117648907

What is rs117648907?

rs117648907 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SNORD77 gene. Published research associates it with cutaneous malignant melanoma. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs117648907 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Cutaneous Malignant Melanoma. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs117648907 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 rs117648907 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2020, PMID:32341527. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
