What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Prostate cancer — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2014, PMID:25217961)

A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Prostate cancer. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2014, PMID:25217961)

G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Prostate cancer compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2014, PMID:25217961)

Questions about rs17599629

What is rs17599629?

rs17599629 is a single position in the genome, in or near the GOLPH3L gene. Published research associates it with prostate 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 rs17599629 linked to?

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

Does having rs17599629 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 rs17599629 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2014, PMID:25217961. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
