What the study found

Who was studied 315,347 European ancestry individuals, 8,322 Hispanic/Latino individuals, 7,290 East Asian ancestry individuals, 3,069 African American individuals, 459 South Asian ancestry individuals; replicated in 431,743 European ancestry individuals, 9,275 South Asian ancestry individuals, 8,261 African British individuals, 1,822 East Asian ancestry individuals, 7,620 individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.023 lower; p = 1 × 10−15.

Where it sits Chromosome 16, band 16p11.2 — between genes, 5.4 kb from NUPR1.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Body mass index. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Body mass index. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Body mass index. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs62034325

What is rs62034325?

rs62034325 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near NUPR1 gene. Published research associates it with body mass index. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs62034325 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Childhood Body Mass Index, Obesity and Body Weight. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs62034325 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 rs62034325 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Genetics 2018, PMID:30108127. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
