A/APublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Lung cancer — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/GPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Lung cancer.
G/GPublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Lung cancer compared to the general population.

Questions about rs3094222
What is rs3094222?
rs3094222 is a single position in the genome, in or near the C6orf15 gene. Published research associates it with lung 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 rs3094222 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Lung Cancer. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs3094222 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 rs3094222 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2017, PMID:28604730. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
