What the study found

Who was studied 7,822 European ancestry cases, 144,172 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 1.14 higher (95% confidence interval 0.88-1.4); p = 2 × 10−17.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17q21.32 — in an intron of COPZ2.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Prostate cancer. 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 Prostate cancer. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Prostate cancer. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs554574584

What is rs554574584?

rs554574584 is a single position in the genome, in or near the COPZ2 gene. Published research associates it with prostate 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 rs554574584 linked to?

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

Does having rs554574584 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 rs554574584 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Scientific reports 2024, PMID:38538606. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
