What the study found

Who was studied up to 488 European ancestry cases, up to 111 African American cases, up to 60 Hispanic cases, up to 56 other ancestry cases.

The effect Each copy of the T allele carried 6.67 times the odds of Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels after remission induction therapy in actute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) (95% confidence interval 1.49-25); p = 2 × 10−8.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2p25.1 — in the 3′ untranslated region of GREB1.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels after remission induction therapy in actute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) — no copies of the reported risk allele.
C/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels after remission induction therapy in actute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels after remission induction therapy in actute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) compared to the general population.

Questions about rs149940960

What is rs149940960?

rs149940960 is a single position in the genome, in or near the GREB1 gene. Published research associates it with alanine aminotransferase (alt) levels after remission induction therapy in actute lymphoblastic leukemia (all). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs149940960 linked to?

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

Does having rs149940960 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 rs149940960 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Clin Pharmacol Ther 2017, PMID:28090653. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
