Abstract excerpt
In humans, several polymorphic variants have been described for the gene encoding the major nicotine C-oxidase, cytochrome P450 2A6 (CYP2A6), which is to a great extent responsible for the large interindividual differences seen at the enzymatic and activity levels. Hitherto, mainly polymorphic variants in the open reading frame have been identified. In the present study, we identified a novel single nucleotide...
