SNPedia records rs137852336 on the minus strand: (A;A), (A;G), (C;C), (C;G), (G;G). Magnitude rates how notable a genotype is from 0 to 10, not how risky it is.

Notes

From SNPedia

Notes

23andMe name (for the G>A variant): i5008448

T;T

Even if asymptomatic, consider being tested for G6PD deficiency and be aware of hemolytic anemia potential when taking certain drugs. See G6PD gene page for more information.

C;T

Carrier but likely to be asymptomatic. However, effects vary in females due to random X chromosome inactivation.

G;G

Even if asymptomatic, consider being tested for G6PD deficiency and be aware of hemolytic anemia potential when taking certain drugs. See G6PD gene page for more information.

C;G

Carrier but likely to be asymptomatic. However, effects vary in females due to random X chromosome inactivation.
