GALNT7 protein levels

near RN7SL549P · rs117905808

What the study found

Who was studied 47,745 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.639 higher (95% confidence interval 0.6-0.68); p = 1 × 10−222.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 2% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 7, band 7q22.1 — between genes, 4.9 kb from RN7SL549P.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of GALNT7 protein levels compared to the general population.
A/G Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with GALNT7 protein levels.
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of GALNT7 protein levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs117905808

What is rs117905808?

rs117905808 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near RN7SL549P gene. Published research associates it with galnt7 protein levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs117905808 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 rs117905808 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2025, PMID:39789286. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
