Cardiac MRI latent phenotype (Z1_S5)

ZMAT5 · rs131272

What the study found

Who was studied 47,740 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.0359 lower (95% confidence interval 0.024-0.047); p = 7 × 10−10.

Where it sits Chromosome 22, band 22q12.2 — in an intron of ZMAT5.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Cardiac MRI latent phenotype (Z1_S5). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Cardiac MRI latent phenotype (Z1_S5). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Cardiac MRI latent phenotype (Z1_S5). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs131272

What is rs131272?

rs131272 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ZMAT5 gene. Published research associates it with cardiac mri latent phenotype (z1_s5). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs131272 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 rs131272 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2026, PMID:42373625. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
