MA2A2 protein level (protein group normalized intensity)

near MAN2A2 · rs71407348

What the study found

Who was studied 1,200 European, Hispanic or African ancestry individuals; replicated in 325 Arab, Indian or Filipino ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.597 lower (95% confidence interval 0.44-0.75); p = 2 × 10−14.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 6% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 15, band 15q26.1 — between genes, 0.3 kb from MAN2A2.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to MA2A2 protein level (protein group normalized intensity). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to MA2A2 protein level (protein group normalized intensity). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to MA2A2 protein level (protein group normalized intensity). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs71407348

What is rs71407348?

rs71407348 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near MAN2A2 gene. Published research associates it with ma2a2 protein level (protein group normalized intensity). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs71407348 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 rs71407348 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2025, PMID:41310232. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
