Bone marrow fat fraction of right proximal femur

JAZF1 · rs1513272

Strength of the evidence

3 / 4

Its strongest genetic-study result is p = 10−70, with 10 associations in the GWAS Catalog.

How this is scored

4: ClinVar disease-causing, reviewed by an expert panel or a guideline (3–4 stars). 3: ClinVar, several labs agreeing (2 stars), or a genetic study at p ≤ 10−50. 2: ClinVar from one lab (1 star), or p ≤ 10−20. 1: ClinVar submitted without criteria (0 stars), or genome-wide significance (p ≤ 5×10−8). The higher of the two counts. It says how solid the evidence is, not whether it matters for a particular person.

What the study found

Who was studied 38,560 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.0484 lower (95% confidence interval 0.035-0.062); p = 7 × 10−12.

Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7p15.1 — in an intron of JAZF1.

What each result means

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Bone marrow fat fraction of right proximal femur. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
C/T One copy of the version the research linked to Bone marrow fat fraction of right proximal femur. That is a smaller link than two copies.
T/T No copy of the version the research linked to Bone marrow fat fraction of right proximal femur. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs1513272

What is rs1513272?

rs1513272 is a single position in the genome, in or near the JAZF1 gene. Published research associates it with bone marrow fat fraction of right proximal femur. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs1513272 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 rs1513272 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2025, PMID:40796918. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
