What the study found

Who was studied 21,816 African ancestry, admixed American, East Asian ancestry, European ancestry, South Asian ancestry, Greater Middle Eastern cases, 2,895,812 African ancestry, admixed American, East Asian ancestry, European ancestry, South Asian ancestry, Greater Middle Eastern controls.

The effect Each copy of the T allele shifted the measure 0.776 higher (95% confidence interval 0.54-1.01); p = 1 × 10−10.

How common The T allele had a frequency of about 0% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 1, band 1p13.2 — a missense change in DCLRE1B.

What ClinVar records

Classification Benign for Autosomal recessive dyskeratosis congenita, Hoyeraal-Hreidarsson syndrome, DCLRE1B-related disorder, Sarcoma; criteria provided, multiple submitters, no conflicts (2 of 4 stars, 5 submitters), last evaluated 2026-06-01. ClinVar record 533713 NM_022836.4(DCLRE1B):c.1528A>T (p.Asn510Tyr)

What this is ClinVar's aggregate record for this position (as of its 2026-09-24 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 Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Thyroid cancer — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/T Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Thyroid cancer.
T/T Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Thyroid cancer compared to the general population.

Questions about rs35397235

What is rs35397235?

rs35397235 is a single position in the genome, in or near the DCLRE1B gene. Published research associates it with thyroid cancer. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs35397235 linked to?

On MyGeneLog this position is linked to Thyroid Cancer. The research behind each link, and its sources, are set out on that condition page.

Does having rs35397235 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 rs35397235 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Nature genetics 2026, PMID:41644669. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
