What the study found

Who was studied 55,105 European ancestry cases, 3,026 East Asian ancestry cases, 65,079 European ancestry controls, 2,268 East Asian ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele carried 1.07 times the odds of Colorectal cancer or advanced adenoma (95% confidence interval 1.05-1.09); p = 3 × 10−11.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 27% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p32.3 — in the 3′ untranslated region of TTC22.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs12144319

What is rs12144319?

rs12144319 is a single position in the genome, in or near the TTC22 gene. Published research associates it with colorectal cancer or advanced adenoma. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs12144319 linked to?

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

Does having rs12144319 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 rs12144319 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2019, PMID:30510241. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
