What this position does

A reduced-function CYP2D6 version that is uncommon in Europe and carried by roughly half of people of East Asian descent, where it is the main cause of reduced CYP2D6 activity.

Substantially reduced CYP2D6 activity. The same drugs are affected as for *4, generally less severely.

Worth knowing. The same copy-number blind spot applies as for *4.

How to find out which you have

If you have taken a test with 23andMe, AncestryDNA, MyHeritage, Family Tree DNA, TellMeGen or Living DNA, this position is very likely already in the raw data file they gave you. You do not need another test.

One thing to watch if you look it up by hand: testing companies report some positions from one DNA strand and some from the other, and the file does not say which. Read the letters as they appear and you will get the opposite of the truth for some positions. Sequencings resolves that automatically.

Common questions

What is rs1065852?

rs1065852 is a position in the CYP2D6 gene on chromosome 22. A reduced-function CYP2D6 version that is uncommon in Europe and carried by roughly half of people of East Asian descent, where it is the main cause of reduced CYP2D6 activity.

What does it mean if I have AA at rs1065852?

Two reduced-function copies. Substantially reduced CYP2D6 activity. The same drugs are affected as for *4, generally less severely.

What does it mean if I have GG at rs1065852?

You do not carry *10. Normal function at this position.

How do I find out my rs1065852 genotype?

If you have taken a home DNA test, this position is very likely in the raw data file you were given. Sequencings reads that file in your browser without uploading it, and resolves which DNA strand each position was reported from, which is the step most manual lookups get wrong.
