What the study found

Who was studied 21,731 East Asian ancestry cases, 47,444 East Asian ancestry controls, 78,473 European ancestry cases, 107,143 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0836 higher (95% confidence interval 0.066-0.102); p = 9 × 10−20.

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p21.32 — between genes, 9.2 kb from HLA-DQA1.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Colorectal cancer. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/G One copy of the version the research linked to Colorectal cancer. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Colorectal cancer. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs9271363

What is rs9271363?

rs9271363 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near HLA-DQA1 gene. Published research associates it with colorectal cancer. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs9271363 linked to?

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

Does having rs9271363 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 rs9271363 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2023, PMID:36539618. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
