Ok I have been intrigued with the celiac and gluten genes. So i was hoping everyone can post their genes.

Oh my gosh! Do you guys actually know what all that means? If I have this test done eventually, will someone interpret it for me? Yikes!

Today - Old Navy.

Normally - Levis

But I'm working on switching the wardrobe to organic cotton.

I don't know my Gene's despite paying for the test from Enterolab. I'd have to look. I was diagnosed both by biopsy, diet, and Enterolab. Having had so many wrong diagnosis-es over the years, there was really no way I was going to let any one test change my life. All three pretty much confirmed each other, and that sealed the deal.

I never had the gene test done so I only know from deduction what mine are since my parents had theirs done. My mother's was:

HLA-DQB1 Molecular analysis, Allele 1 0302

HLA-DQB1 Molecular analysis, Allele 2 0501

Serologic equivalent: HLA-DQ 3,1 (Subtype 8,5)

and my dad's was:

Serologic equivalent: HLA-DQ 3,3 (Subtype 7,7)

Since my dad has a double gene I know I have the 7 and then either an 8 or 5 from my mother. Interestingly enough even though it's my mother that has the celiac gene it was my dad that tested positive for gluten intolerance. My brother is postive as well and he has the 7 and 8 genes.

Here's my Enterolab gene test results. Everyone who tests with Elab will get an explanation of their genetic (and other test) results. I also posted the interpretation included in my Elab gene test results:

Gene Test for Gluten Sensitivity

Molecular Analysis: HLA-DQB1*0602, 0302

Serologic equivalent: HLA-DQ 1,3 (subtype 6,8)

HLA gene analysis reveals that you have a copy of one of the main genes that predisposes to gluten sensitivity and celiac sprue, HLA-DQ3, subtype 8 (HLA-DQ8). This genotype also can predispose to microscopic colitis and other autoimmune syndromes.

Thanks everyone that posted. I had some thoughts going threw my head yesterday and wanted to compare gene types, and see who had genes like mine. Plus i want to do some research on gene types sometime in the near future. I have to much going on right now to think straight, but it is on my 2 to list lol

Your HLA DQ 3 subtype 8 is what is referred to as HLA DQ 8, which is a Celiac gene.

from wikipedia:

DQ3 is split into DQ7, DQ8, and DQ9, but allele retain DQB1*03.

DQ7 = DQB1*0301 (or very similar alleles)

DQ8 = DQB1*0302 (or very similar alleles)

DQ9 = DQB1*0303 (or very similar alleles)

See this is one of the things that i am really interested in. I am dqb1 0301, which i think is very close to dqb1 0302. I am not sure how close they are but would really like to find out.

close doesn't mean the same though.

the entire explanation, from wikipedia:

Note on DQ Serotype Names in Relationship with Allele Names

DQ serotypes are usually a recognition of Beta chain isoform groups For example, DQ2 = alleles that start with DQB1*02 (*0201, *0202, and *0203).

DQ2 is encoded by alleles that start with DQB1*02

DQ4 is encoded by alleles that start with DQB1*04

There are two exceptions worth noting:

DQ1 is 'split' into DQ5 and DQ6, in this case the DQB1 alleles start with

-DQ5 encoded by alleles that start with DQB1*05

-DQ6 encoded by alleles that start with DQB1*06

DQ3 is split into DQ7, DQ8, and DQ9, but allele retain DQB1*03.

-DQ7 = DQB1*0301 (or very similar alleles)

-DQ8 = DQB1*0302 (or very similar alleles)

-DQ9 = DQB1*0303 (or very similar alleles)

You are DQ6 and DQ7.

Paula,

You are welcome :).

I've found the best info online. go to wikipedia, and search for hla dq2, and click on the first link...I think its a great comprehensive overview of the hla dq genes of interest to us.

Thanks for that info. Yesterday i just kept typing in the difference between 7 and 8, i didnt hink to type just in 7 lol. I am going to try and do some more research today. I even emailed enterolab to see what they will tell me, I am sure i wont hear from them til next week tho.

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      Hello all! My life in the last five years has been crazy. I got married in 2020 at the age of 27, pregnant with our first child almost two months later, gave birth in 2021. We had another baby in April of 2023 and our last baby this March of 2025. I had some issues after my second but nothing ever made me think, "I should see a doctor about this." After...

      On the AIP diet, all processed foods are eliminated. This includes gluten-free bread. You'll be eating meats and vegetables, mostly. Meats that are processed, like sausages, sandwich meats, bacons, chicken nuggets, etc., are eliminated as well. Veggies should be fresh, or frozen without other ingredients like sauces or seasonings. Nightshade vegetables...

      When I accidentally consume gluten it compromises the well-being of my heart and arteries. Last time I had a significant exposure, about six months ago, I had AFib for about ten days. It came on every day around dinner time. After the ten days or so it went away and hasn't come back. My cardiologist offered me a collection of pharmaceuticals at the time...

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      By tiffanygosci · Posted

      Hello all! My life in the last five years has been crazy. I got married in 2020 at the age of 27, pregnant with our first child almost two months later, gave birth in 2021. We had another baby in April of 2023 and our last baby this March of 2025. I had some issues after my second but nothing ever made me think, "I should see a doctor about this." After having my last baby this year, my body has finally started to find its new rhythm and balance...but things started to feel out of sorts. A lot of symptoms were convoluted with postpartum symptoms, and, to top it all off, my cycle came back about 4m postpartum. I was having reoccurring migraines, nausea, joint pain, numbness in my right arm, hand and fingers, tummy problems, hives. I finally went to my PCP in August just for a wellness check and I brought up my ailments. I'm so thankful for a doctor that listens and is thorough. He ended up running a food allergy panel, an environmental respiratory panel, and a celiac panel. I found out I was allergic to wheat, allergic to about every plant and dust mites, and I did have celiac. I had an endoscopy done on October 3 and my results confirmed celiac in the early stages! I am truly blessed to have an answer to my issues. When I eat gluten, my brain feels like it's on fire and like someone is squeezing it. I can't think straight and I zone out easily. My eyes can't focus. I get a super bad migraine and nausea. I get so tired and irritable and anxious. My body hurts sometimes and my gut gets bloated, gassy, constipated, and ends with bowel movements. All this time I thought I was just having mom brain or feeling the effects of postpartum, sleep deprivation, and the like (which I probably was having and the celiac disease just ramped it up!) I have yet to see a dietician but I've already been eating and shopping gluten-free. My husband and I have been working on turning our kitchen 100% gluten-free (we didn't think this would be so expensive but he assured me that my health is worth all the money in the world). There are still a few things to replace and clean. I'm already getting tired of reading labels. I even replaced some of my personal hygiene care for myself and the kids because they were either made with oats or not labeled gluten-free. I have already started feeling better but have made some mistakes along the way or have gotten contamination thrown into the mix. It's been hard! Today I joked that I got diagnosed at the worst time of the year with all the holidays coming up. I will just need to bring my own food to have and to share. It will be okay but different after years of eating "normally". Today I ordered in person at Chipotle and was trying not to feel self-conscious as the line got long because they were following food-allergy protocols. It's all worth it to be the healthiest version of myself for me and my family. I would be lying if I said I wasn't a little overwhelmed and a little overloaded!  I am thankful for this community and I look forward to learning more from you all. I need the help, that's for sure!

      Thank you for responding and for prayers.  So sorry for your struggles, I will keep you in mine.  You are so young to have so many struggles, mine are mild by comparison.  I didn't have Celiac Disease (celiac disease) until I had my gallbladder removed 13 years ago; at least nothing I was aware of.  Following surgery: multiple symptoms/oddities appeared including ridges on fingernails, eczema, hair falling out in patches, dry eyes, upset stomach constantly and other weird symptoms that I don't really remember.  Gastro did tests and endoscopy and verified celiac disease. Re heart: I was born with Mitral Valve Prolapse (MVP) and an irregular heartbeat, yet heart was extremely strong.  It was difficult to pick up the irregular heartbeat on the EKG per cardiologist.  I had Covid at 77, recovered in 10 days and 2 weeks later developed long Covid. What the doctors and nurses called the "kickoff to long Covid, was A-fib.  I didn't know what was going on with my heart and had ignored early symptoms as some kind of passing aftereffect stemming from Covid.  I was right about where it came from, but wrong on it being "passing".  I have A-fib as my permanent reminder of Covid and take Flecainide every morning and night and will for the rest of my life to stabilize my heartbeat.
