What each result means

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. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Commun 2015, PMID:25855136)
G/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Basal cell carcinoma. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Commun 2015, PMID:25855136)
T/T Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Basal cell carcinoma — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Commun 2015, PMID:25855136)

Questions about rs801114

What is rs801114?

rs801114 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.

Does having rs801114 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 rs801114 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Commun 2015, PMID:25855136. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
