What the study found

Who was studied 17,416 European ancestry cases, 375,455 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.215 higher (95% confidence interval 0.19-0.24); p = 1 × 10−71.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 25% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1q42.13 — between genes, 76.5 kb from LOC100421842.

What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Basal cell carcinoma — no copies of the reported risk allele.
C/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Basal cell carcinoma.
G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Basal cell carcinoma compared to the general population.

Questions about rs801108

What is rs801108?

rs801108 is a single position in the genome, in or near the RHOU gene. Published research associates it with basal cell carcinoma. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs801108 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 rs801108 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 rs801108 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Genome Med 2021, PMID:33549134. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
