A/APublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Total body bone mineral density (age 30-45) compared to the general population.
A/GPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Total body bone mineral density (age 30-45).
G/GPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Total body bone mineral density (age 30-45) — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs62259232
What is rs62259232?
rs62259232 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near CTNNB1 gene. Published research associates it with total body bone mineral density (age 30-45). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs62259232 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Total Body Bone Mineral Density. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs62259232 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 rs62259232 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Am J Hum Genet 2018, PMID:29304378. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
