What each result means

C/C Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Birth weight compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2019, PMID:31043758)
C/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Birth weight. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2019, PMID:31043758)
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Birth weight — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2019, PMID:31043758)

Questions about rs5030317

What is rs5030317?

rs5030317 is a single position in the genome, in or near the WT1 gene. Published research associates it with birth weight. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs5030317 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 rs5030317 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Genet 2019, PMID:31043758. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
