In particular, if there is an additional gauged $U(1)$ symmetry at some large scale which can be made anomaly-free only by a Green-Schwarz (GS) mechanism, this typically results in a prediction for the weak angle. In the case of the standard model one can see that the standard Peccei-Quinn symmetry may be gauged and the anomalies cancelled through a GS mechanism. Remarkably enough, cancelation of anomalies works only for the `canonical' value $sin^2\\theta _W=3/8$.
