Questions about rs10512606

What is rs10512606?

rs10512606 is a single position in the genome, in or near the RNF157 gene. Published research associates it with waist-hip ratio. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs10512606 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Waist-to-Hip Ratio (Body Fat Distribution). The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs10512606 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 rs10512606 come from?

GWAS Catalog, JAMA 2018, PMID:30575882. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
