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

I like Gloria Vanderbilt...oh genes. Don't know mine, a biopsy sealed it for me. ;)

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.

Mine are in my signature because I can never remember what they are.

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.

Mine:

Daughter's:

HLA-DQB1*0609, 0301

Son's:

..........................

Husband hasn't had his done, but he obviously has at least one copy of HLA-DQB1 Molecular analysis, Allele 1 0301 .

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)

Please below my name. You will find them.

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.

Serologic equivalent: HLA-DQ 3,1 (Subtype 7,6)

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.

thank you for posting that.

Does anyone know of an good book that explains all this., or is it bestjust to do all my seaching online

Mine: HLA-DQ 2,3 (subtype 2,7) or DQ2 and DQ7

Husband: HLA-DQ 2,3 (subtype 2,8) or DQ2 and DQ8

Daughter:HLA-DQ 3,3 (subtype 8,7) or DQ8 and DQ7

Son: HLA-DQ 2,2 (subtype 2,2) or Double DQ2

Son: Haven't gene tested yet but DQ2, 7 or 8 are the only possibilities.

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.

confused Community Regular

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.

      That's great news, you can do this.  Let us know how things go and don't hesitate to ask if you have any more questions. Cristiana 😊

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.
