Where this position leads

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Bipolar disorder — no copies of the reported risk allele.

A/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Bipolar disorder.

T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Bipolar disorder compared to the general population.

Questions about rs2517959

What is rs2517959?

rs2517959 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ERBB2 gene. Published research associates it with bipolar disorder. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs2517959 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Bipolar Disorder. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs2517959 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 rs2517959 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Hum Mol Genet 2016, PMID:27329760. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
