Who was studied 133,384 European ancestry breast cancer cases, 113,789 European ancestry controls, 449,734 European ancestry individuals.
The effect
The reported allele is G; the catalogue records no effect size
; p = 3 × 10−9.
Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16q12.2 — between genes, 1.8 kb from CASC16.
What each result means
A/ANo copy of the version the research linked to Chronotype and breast cancer. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/GOne copy of the version the research linked to Chronotype and breast cancer. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/GTwo copies of the version the research linked to Chronotype and breast cancer. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
rs4608329 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near CASC16 gene. Published research associates it with chronotype and breast 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 rs4608329 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 rs4608329 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 rs4608329 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Journal of sleep research 2024, PMID:37380357. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
