Bioinformatics Research on Inter-racial Difference in Drug Metabolism I. Analysis on Frequencies of Mutant Alleles and Poor Metabolizers on CYP2D6 and CYP2C19
1 Jan 2003
Abstract excerpt
The enzyme activities of CYP2D6 and CYP2C19 show a genetic polymorphism, and the frequency of poor metabolizers (PMs) on these enzymes depends on races. In the present study, the frequencies of mutant alleles and PMs in each race were analyzed based on information from published studies, considering the genetic polymorphisms of CYP2D6 and CYP2C19 as the causal factors of racial and inter-individual differences in...
