Where this position leads

What the study found

Who was studied 24,206 East Asian ancestry cases, 24,775 East Asian ancestry controls, 122,977 European ancestry cases, 105,974 European ancestry controls; replicated in 10,829 East Asian ancestry cases, 10,996 East Asian ancestry controls, 5,958 Asian ancestry cases, 5,684 Asian ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele carried 1.04 times the odds of Breast cancer (95% confidence interval 1.03-1.06); p = 3 × 10⁻¹⁰.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3q12.1 — in an intron of CMSS1.

What each result means

G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Breast cancer — no copies of the reported risk allele.

G/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Breast cancer.

T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Breast cancer compared to the general population.

Questions about rs9833888

What is rs9833888?

rs9833888 is a single position in the genome, in or near the CMSS1 gene. Published research associates it with breast 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 rs9833888 linked to?

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

Does having rs9833888 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 rs9833888 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2020, PMID:32139696. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
