What the study found

Who was studied 62,533 European ancestry breast cancer female cases, 60,976 European ancestry controls, 15,437 European ancestry invasive epithelial ovarian cancer female cases, 30,845 European ancestry controls, 34,379 European ancestry prostate cancer male cases, 33,164 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0582 higher (95% confidence interval 0.044-0.072); p = 4 × 10−16.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 73% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17q22 — in an intron of STXBP4.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Breast cancer, ovarian cancer or prostate cancer (pleiotropy). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Breast cancer, ovarian cancer or prostate cancer (pleiotropy). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Breast cancer, ovarian cancer or prostate cancer (pleiotropy). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs2628317

What is rs2628317?

rs2628317 is a single position in the genome, in or near the STXBP4 gene. Published research associates it with breast cancer, ovarian cancer or prostate cancer (pleiotropy). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs2628317 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 rs2628317 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 rs2628317 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Cancer discovery 2016, PMID:27432226. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
