near MTCO3P1 · rs3916765

What the study found

Who was studied 3,041 European ancestry cases, 6,760 European ancestry controls; replicated in 977 European ancestry cases, 3,728 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele carried 1.72 times the odds of Acute myeloid leukemia (normal cytogenetics) (95% confidence interval 1.46-2.03); p = 2 × 10−10.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p21.32 — between genes, 10.8 kb from MTCO3P1.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Acute myeloid leukemia (normal cytogenetics) — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Acute myeloid leukemia (normal cytogenetics).
G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Acute myeloid leukemia (normal cytogenetics) compared to the general population.

Questions about rs3916765

What is rs3916765?

rs3916765 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near MTCO3P1 gene. Published research associates it with acute myeloid leukemia (normal cytogenetics). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs3916765 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 rs3916765 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2021, PMID:34716350. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
