MSR1 protein levels

ST3GAL4 · rs75071241

What the study found

Who was studied 47,745 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.185 lower (95% confidence interval 0.16-0.21); p = 6 × 10−74.

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

Where it sits Chromosome 11, band 11q24.2 — in an intron of ST3GAL4.

What each result means

A/A Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of MSR1 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 MSR1 protein levels.
G/G Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of MSR1 protein levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.

Questions about rs75071241

What is rs75071241?

rs75071241 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ST3GAL4 gene. Published research associates it with msr1 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 rs75071241 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 rs75071241 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.
