Where this position leads

What the study found

Who was studied 46,785 European ancestry cases, 42,892 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele carried 1.07 times the odds of Breast cancer (95% confidence interval 1.05–1.10); p = 2 × 10⁻⁹.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 34% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1q21.2 — in an intron of OTUD7B.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Breast cancer — no copies of the reported risk allele.

A/C Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Breast cancer.

C/C Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Breast cancer compared to the general population.

Questions about rs12048493

What is rs12048493?

rs12048493 is a single position in the genome, in or near the OTUD7B gene. Published research associates it with breast cancer. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs12048493 linked to?

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

Does having rs12048493 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 rs12048493 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2015, PMID:25751625. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
