What each result means

G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Testicular germ cell tumor — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2017, PMID:28604732)
G/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Testicular germ cell tumor. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2017, PMID:28604732)
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Testicular germ cell tumor compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2017, PMID:28604732)

Questions about rs73019876

What is rs73019876?

rs73019876 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ZNF257 gene. Published research associates it with testicular germ cell tumor. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs73019876 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 rs73019876 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2017, PMID:28604732. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
