Where this position leads

What the study found

Who was studied 22,406 European ancestry cases, 40,941 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele carried 1.13 times the odds of Invasive epithelial ovarian cancer (95% confidence interval 1.09660984313914-1.1724605092959); p = 2 × 10⁻¹³.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 18% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17q21.31 — in an intron of PLEKHM1.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Invasive epithelial ovarian cancer. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

C/G One copy of the version the research linked to Invasive epithelial ovarian cancer. That is a smaller link than two copies.

G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Invasive epithelial ovarian cancer. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs1879586

What is rs1879586?

rs1879586 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PLEKHM1 gene. Published research associates it with invasive epithelial ovarian 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 rs1879586 linked to?

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

Does having rs1879586 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 rs1879586 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2017, PMID:28346442. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
