Who was studied 76,192 European ancestry cases, 63,082 European ancestry controls; replicated in 46,785 European ancestry cases, 42,892 European ancestry controls, 14,068 East Asian ancestry cases, 13,104 East Asian ancestry controls.
The effect
Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0586 lower (95% confidence interval 0.046-0.071); p = 4 × 10−20.
How common The T allele had a frequency of about 56% in the people studied.
Where it sits Chromosome 19, band 19q13.31 — in an intron of KCNN4.
What each result means
C/CPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Breast cancer — no copies of the reported risk allele.
C/TPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Breast cancer.
T/TPublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Breast cancer compared to the general population.
rs1685191 is a single position in the genome, in or near the KCNN4 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 rs1685191 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 rs1685191 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 rs1685191 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nature 2017, PMID:29059683. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
