What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Body mass index and fasting glucose (pairwise) — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Body mass index and fasting glucose (pairwise).
G/G Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Body mass index and fasting glucose (pairwise) compared to the general population.

Questions about rs7713317

What is rs7713317?

rs7713317 is a single position in the genome, in or near the PCSK1 gene. Published research associates it with body mass index and fasting glucose (pairwise). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs7713317 linked to?

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

Does having rs7713317 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 rs7713317 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nat Metab 2021, PMID:33619380. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
