rs1050829 is a SNP within the G6PD gene and is located the X chromosome. G6PD codes for the enzyme glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, which helps protect the cell from oxidative damage. Depending on genotype, an individual may possess one of two primary versions of the G6PD gene; type A and type B. Type A is predominantly found in people who have African ancestry. Mutations of G6PD can cause varying degrees of G6PD deficiency, which is a disease affecting red blood cells. For example, an A to G substitution mutation at the rs1050829 locus (also known as A376G) is associated with reduced production of G6PD enzyme. Other mutations causing G6PD deficiency include; rs1050828. The G6PD deficient genotype A- (~8-20% reduction of G6PD) is typically defined by the possession of both the rs1050829 G allele and the rs1050828 A allele. G6PD deficiency frequency is highest in malarial regions where G6PD deficient individuals are typically less affected by malarial infection ([PMID 19546473OA-icon.png]).

The minor allele of this SNP should be reclassified as benign according to [PMID 26990548OA-icon.png] [PMID 22438807OA-icon.png] Study of malaria in Gambian children uses the rs1050829 allele to help detect G6PD deficient individuals.

[PMID 20459687OA-icon.png] A total of 72 SNPs were genotyped in two populations in eastern Sudan (Hausa and Massalit), as well as, a cohort of malaria hospital patients and a control sample set (n=449). The study found that in comparison to controls (n=69), Massalit individuals (n=60) who possess the rs105829 G allele were less susceptible to malarial infection (p=0.02).

[PMID 22906837] In a G6PD deficient Jordanian clinical population, the A376G allele was found to be at a frequency of 21% in males (n=47) and 9% in females (n=16). Whereas the G6PD deficient G202A/A376G genotype was found to be 19%.

[PMID 21849081OA-icon.png] Examines the frequency of G6PD deficiency genotypes in African malarial drug clinical trail patients from five different populations (Burkina Faso, Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria, Tanzania, and Mali).
