Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The genetically polymorphic cytochrome P450 enzymes 2Cl9 (CYP2Cl9) and 2D6 (CYP2D6) contribute to the metabolism of about 30% of all drugs. For analysis of the ethnic-related differences in drug disposition and as a preparation for routine genotyping, we examined CYP2C19 and CYP2D6 mutations in a large Turkish population. METHODS: CYP2C19 and CYP2D6 alleles were determined with use of...
