MEP1A rs749761813: what the research says
An intronic variant within the MEP1A gene locus linked to trait associations.
What each genotype means
Typical MEP1A genetic profile
This genotype represents the most common form of this variant observed in general population studies. Current research identifies this as an intronic variant within the MEP1A gene, though its specific functional impact on meprin A subunit alpha levels remains limited and requires further investigation.
This is the most frequently observed genotype across most global populations.
Variant MEP1A genetic profile
This genotype indicates the presence of one copy of the minor allele at this locus. While this variant has been identified in genome-wide association studies, its clinical significance is currently limited and it is not known to cause any specific health condition.
This genotype is rare and observed at low frequencies in most populations.
Rare MEP1A genetic profile
This genotype represents the homozygous state for the minor allele. Research into this specific variant is ongoing, and there is currently no evidence to suggest this genotype is associated with any specific disease or clinical trait.
This genotype is extremely rare and is found in a very small fraction of the population.
