C/CPublished research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Tanning — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, J Invest Dermatol 2009, PMID:19340012)
C/TPublished research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Tanning. (GWAS Catalog, J Invest Dermatol 2009, PMID:19340012)
T/TPublished research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Tanning compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, J Invest Dermatol 2009, PMID:19340012)
rs35391 is a single position in the genome, in or near the MATP gene. Published research associates it with tanning. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
What conditions is rs35391 linked to?
On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Eye Color and Pigmentation. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.
Does having rs35391 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 rs35391 come from?
GWAS Catalog, J Invest Dermatol 2009, PMID:19340012. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
