The homozygous variant genotypes of rs3828599, rs736775 and rs8177447 in GPX3 were associated with a 40-50% risk reduction for rectal cancer, specifically for rectal cancers with TP53 mutations. |

| Description | This gene product belongs to the glutathione peroxidase family, which functions in the detoxification of hydrogen peroxide. It contains a selenocysteine (Sec) residue at its active site. The selenocysteine is encoded by the UGA codon, which normally signals translation termination. The 3' UTR of Sec-containing genes have a common stem-loop structure, the sec insertion sequence (SECIS), which is necessary for the recognition of UGA as a Sec codon rather than as a stop signal.
