CASR
CASR encodes the calcium-sensing receptor, which helps the parathyroid glands and kidneys respond to calcium in blood. Common variants at this locus, including rs1801725, are linked to small average differences in circulating calcium. The exact causal mechanism for rs1801725 is not established, and the marker does not measure a person's calcium level.
