What the study found

Who was studied 4,368 European ancestry cases, 9,123 European ancestry controls,; replicated in 2,462 European ancestry BRCA1 mutation carrier cases, 12,790 European ancestry BRCA1 mutation carrier controls, up to 631 European ancestry BRCA2 mutation carrier cases, 7,580 European ancestry BRCA2 mutation carrier controls, 9,627 European ancestry serous cases, 1,442 European ancestry non-serous cases, 21,722 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele carried 1.14 times the odds of Epithelial ovarian cancer (95% confidence interval 1.10-1.19); p = 5 × 10−15.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 27% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 17, band 17q21.32 — in an intron of SKAP1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs9303542

What is rs9303542?

rs9303542 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SKAP1 gene. Published research associates it with epithelial ovarian 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 rs9303542 linked to?

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

Does having rs9303542 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 rs9303542 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2015, PMID:25581431. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
