MICB or MICA protein levels

near NOP56P1 · rs73403143

What the study found

Who was studied 47,745 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.0682 higher (95% confidence interval 0.049-0.087); p = 2 × 10−20.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 6, band 6p22.1 — between genes, 24.8 kb from NOP56P1.

What each result means

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

Questions about rs73403143

What is rs73403143?

rs73403143 is a single position in the genome, in or near the near NOP56P1 gene. Published research associates it with micb or mica 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 rs73403143 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 rs73403143 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.
