Junctional adhesion molecule B levels

ABO · rs8176725

Strength of the evidence

1 / 4

Its strongest genetic-study result is p = 10−11, with 1 associations in the GWAS Catalog.

How this is scored

4: ClinVar disease-causing, reviewed by an expert panel or a guideline (3–4 stars). 3: ClinVar, several labs agreeing (2 stars), or a genetic study at p ≤ 10−50. 2: ClinVar from one lab (1 star), or p ≤ 10−20. 1: ClinVar submitted without criteria (0 stars), or genome-wide significance (p ≤ 5×10−8). The higher of the two counts. It says how solid the evidence is, not whether it matters for a particular person.

What the study found

Who was studied 2,935 Qatari ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.268 higher (95% confidence interval 0.19-0.34); p = 8 × 10−12.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 13% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 9, band 9q34.2 — in an intron of ABO.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Junctional adhesion molecule B levels. 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 Junctional adhesion molecule B levels. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Junctional adhesion molecule B levels. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs8176725

What is rs8176725?

rs8176725 is a single position in the genome, in or near the ABO gene. Published research associates it with junctional adhesion molecule b levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs8176725 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 rs8176725 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Human molecular genetics 2023, PMID:36168886. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
