Rs1334512

rs1334512, also known as -53, is a SNP in the CD36 molecule (thrombospondin receptor) CD36 gene.

A study of 552 individuals in India found a protective association between the rs1334512(T) allele and the (T;T) genotype related to severe malaria; (T;T) homozgyotes had a 0.37x (p = 0.004)decreased risk compared to (G;G) homozygotes.
