MUC1
MUC1 encodes a surface protein found on many epithelial cells. rs4072037 lies in MUC1 and is linked to a small average difference in serum magnesium, but the surrounding 1q22 region contains several genes and the magnesium-causal gene is not established. The marker does not measure magnesium absorption, body stores, or supplement response.
