What the study found

Who was studied 13,377 East Asian ancestry cases, 194,993 East Asian ancestry controls.

The effect Each copy of the A allele carried 0.78 times the odds of Systemic lupus erythematosus (95% confidence interval 0.71-0.85); p = 3 × 10−12.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 10% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome X, band Xq28 — inside G6PD.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Systemic lupus erythematosus. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Systemic lupus erythematosus. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Systemic lupus erythematosus. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.

Questions about rs5945199

What is rs5945199?

rs5945199 is a single position in the genome, in or near the G6PD gene. Published research associates it with systemic lupus erythematosus. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.

What conditions is rs5945199 linked to?

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

Does rs5945199 affect how medicines work?

G6PD carries pharmacogenomic findings for Dapsone, nitrofurantoin and other oxidising drugs, Primaquine and tafenoquine, Rasburicase. That is educational information, not a prescription or a dosing guide. Any decision to start, stop or change a medicine belongs with the clinician or pharmacist managing your treatment.

Does having rs5945199 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 rs5945199 come from?

GWAS Catalog, Ann Rheum Dis 2020, PMID:33272962. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
