What the study found

Who was studied 768 Hispanic or Latin American cases, 58,733 Hispanic or Latin American controls, 31,142 European ancestry cases, 404,406 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.174 higher (95% confidence interval 0.12-0.22); p = 5 × 10−15.

How common The C allele had a frequency of about 94% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 2, band 2p11.2 — between genes, 70.4 kb from MRPL45P1.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Basal cell carcinoma (PheCode 172.21). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Basal cell carcinoma (PheCode 172.21). That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Basal cell carcinoma (PheCode 172.21). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs6547771

What is rs6547771?

rs6547771 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near MRPL45P1 gene. Published research associates it with basal cell carcinoma (phecode 172.21). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs6547771 linked to?

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

Does having rs6547771 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 rs6547771 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Science (New York, N.Y.) 2024, PMID:39024449. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
