Questions about rs9886651

What is rs9886651?

rs9886651 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near MYC 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 rs9886651 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 rs9886651 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 rs9886651 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2017, PMID:28346442. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
