Mannose-binding protein C levels

MBL2 · rs2506

Stands on its own. Nothing else here links to this position yet — but the page above is the point: what the research found, what each genotype means, and where it came from, in language you can read. Links to conditions, drugs and the senses appear automatically if we write them.

What the study found

Who was studied 997 European ancestry individuals; replicated in 338 Greater Middle Eastern (Middle Eastern, North African or Persian), South Asian ancestry, Asian ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the C allele shifted the measure 0.404 lower (95% confidence interval 0.31-0.5); p = 6 × 10⁻¹⁶.

Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10q21.1 — in the 3′ untranslated region of MBL2.

What ClinVar records

Classification Likely benign for Mannose-binding lectin deficiency; criteria provided, multiple submitters, no conflicts (2 of 4 stars, 2 submitters), last evaluated 2018-01-13. ClinVar record 300109 NM_001378373.1(MBL2):c.*2388T>G

What this is ClinVar's aggregate record for this position (as of its 2026-10-12 release), not a result about you. A classification describes the variant against the condition named, as laboratories submitted it. Whether a person carries this variant, and what that would mean for them, is a question for a clinical test and a genetic counsellor.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Mannose-binding protein C levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

A/C One copy of the version the research linked to Mannose-binding protein C levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.

C/C Two copies of the version the research linked to Mannose-binding protein C levels. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs2506

What is rs2506?

rs2506 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MBL2 gene. Published research associates it with mannose-binding protein c levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs2506 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 rs2506 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2017, PMID:28240269. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
