FAM227B · rs71467682

Where this position leads

Condition: EGFR Mutation-Positive Lung Adenocarcinoma

What the study found

Who was studied 11,753 East Asian ancestry cases, 30,562 East Asian ancestry controls; replicated in 9,905 East Asian ancestry cases, 120,114 East Asian ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele carried 0.91 times the odds of Lung adenocarcinoma (95% confidence interval 0.88-0.93); p = 3 × 10⁻¹⁴.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 31% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 15, band 15q21.2 — in an intron of FAM227B.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Lung adenocarcinoma. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Lung adenocarcinoma. That is a smaller link than two copies.

G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Lung adenocarcinoma. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs71467682

What is rs71467682?

rs71467682 is a single position in the genome, in or near the FAM227B gene. Published research associates it with lung adenocarcinoma. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs71467682 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to EGFR Mutation-Positive Lung Adenocarcinoma. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs71467682 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 rs71467682 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2023, PMID:37236969. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
