Keratinocyte cancer (MTAG)

CCR12P · rs9557210

What the study found

Who was studied at least 18,538 European ancestry cases, at least 340,302 European ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the G allele carried 1.07 times the odds of Keratinocyte cancer (MTAG) (95% confidence interval 1.05-1.09); p = 3 × 10−10.

How common The G allele had a frequency of about 79% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 13, band 13q32.3 — between genes, 8.7 kb from UBAC2.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs9557210

What is rs9557210?

rs9557210 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CCR12P gene. Published research associates it with keratinocyte cancer (mtag). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs9557210 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 rs9557210 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Human molecular genetics 2019, PMID:31174203. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
