Stands on its own. Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.

What the study found

Who was studied 36,760 European ancestry cutaneous melanoma cases, 375,188 European ancestry controls, 352,662 European ancestry individuals.

The effect The reported allele is T; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 2 × 10⁻¹³.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 79% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1q41 — in an intron of PTPN14.

What each result means

C/C No copy of the version the research linked to Cutaneous melanoma or hair colour. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Cutaneous melanoma or hair colour. That is a smaller link than two copies.

T/T Two copies of the version the research linked to Cutaneous melanoma or hair colour. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs7533482

What is rs7533482?

rs7533482 is a single position in the genome, in or near the RP11-365D23.4 gene. Published research associates it with cutaneous melanoma or hair colour. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs7533482 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 rs7533482 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2020, PMID:32341527. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
