Cutaneous malignant melanoma

CDKN2B-AS1 · rs75883022

Where this position leads

Condition: Cutaneous Malignant Melanoma

What the study found

Who was studied 36,760 European ancestry cases, 375,188 European ancestry controls.

The effect The reported allele is T; the catalogue records no effect size ; p = 7 × 10⁻¹³.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 2% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 9, band 9p21.3 — in an intron of CDKN2B-AS1.

What each result means

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

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

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

Questions about rs75883022

What is rs75883022?

rs75883022 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CDKN2B-AS1 gene. Published research associates it with cutaneous malignant melanoma. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs75883022 linked to?

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

Does having rs75883022 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 rs75883022 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.
