What the study found

Who was studied 489 African American or Afro-Caribbean cases, 121,228 African American or Afro-Caribbean controls, 1,880 European ancestry cases, 448,753 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 2.76 lower (95% confidence interval 2.73-2.8); p = 1 × 10−12.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 100% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 5, band 5q21.1 — between genes, 41.8 kb from GUSBP7.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Pancreatic cancer (PheCode 157) compared to the general population.
A/C Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Pancreatic cancer (PheCode 157).
C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Pancreatic cancer (PheCode 157) — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs182822720

What is rs182822720?

rs182822720 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near GUSBP7 gene. Published research associates it with pancreatic cancer (phecode 157). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs182822720 linked to?

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

Does having rs182822720 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 rs182822720 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2024, PMID:39024449. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
