Stands on its own.

research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can
read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.
What each result means
A/A
Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Renal function-related traits (BUN) — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2012, PMID:22797727)
A/G
Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Renal function-related traits (BUN). (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2012, PMID:22797727)
G/G
Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Renal function-related traits (BUN) compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2012, PMID:22797727)

Questions about rs17730281
What is rs17730281?
rs17730281 is a single position in the genome, in or near the WDR72 gene. Published research associates it with renal function-related traits (bun). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
Does having rs17730281 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 rs17730281 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2012, PMID:22797727. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
