Metabolite peak levels (QI7389)

HPS1 · rs1739

What the study found

Who was studied 2,466 Black/admixed ancestry individuals; replicated in up to 1,653 European, Hispanic, Asian or Black individuals.

The effect Each copy of the G allele shifted the measure 0.632 lower (95% confidence interval 0.57-0.69); p = 3 × 10−91.

Where it sits Chromosome 10, band 10q24.2 — in the 3′ untranslated region of HPS1.

What ClinVar records

Classification Benign for Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome 1; criteria provided, multiple submitters, no conflicts (2 of 4 stars, 2 submitters), last evaluated 2018-01-13. ClinVar record 298314 NM_000195.5(HPS1):c.*982T>C

What this is ClinVar's aggregate record for this position (as of its 2026-10-12 release), not a result about you. A classification describes the variant against the condition named, as laboratories submitted it. Whether a person carries this variant, and what that would mean for them, is a question for a clinical test and a genetic counsellor.

What each result means

A/A No copy of the version the research linked to Metabolite peak levels (QI7389). This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Metabolite peak levels (QI7389). That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G Two copies of the version the research linked to Metabolite peak levels (QI7389). That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.

Questions about rs1739

What is rs1739?

rs1739 is a single position in the genome, in or near the HPS1 gene. Published research associates it with metabolite peak levels (qi7389). A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

Does having rs1739 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 rs1739 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature communications 2022, PMID:35995766. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
