What is rs2238135?

rs2238135 is a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the VDR gene (Vitamin D receptor). Each person carries two copies, one from each parent, so a result is reported as a pair of letters such as CT. The table below describes what studies associate with each genotype; the association is statistical, across populations, and is not a diagnosis.

Is rs2238135 on 23andMe and AncestryDNA chips?

Yes — it is genotyped directly on 23andMe V3, 23andMe V4. Orviva reads it from a raw-data export without imputation.

Genetic associations describe risk across populations, not a diagnosis for any one person. Most variants shift risk modestly and act alongside lifestyle, environment and other genes. Consumer DNA chips do not read every position and can be wrong at any single one. For general education only; talk to a clinician or genetic counsellor before acting on anything here, and never change a prescribed medicine without your prescriber.
