Abstract excerpt
CYP2C9 catalyzes the metabolism of important drugs such as phenytoin, S-warfarin, tolbutamide, losartan, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. A functional polymorphism of the CYP2C9 gene has been described. The single-base mutation of A1061C (Ile359Leu) in the CYP2C9 gene termed CYP2C9*3 was found at a frequency of about 2.1% in Japanese. We developed a rapid mutation analysis method for detecting the...
