Abstract excerpt
Cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) copy number variation (CNV) influences the metabolism of 15-25% of clinical drugs. Here we describe a novel multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis method that accurately detects CYP2D6 CNV and CYP2D6*9 allele. It includes the amplification of 2 CYP2D6 and 7 control (AQP1, CYP3A4, MDR1, and SDHB) fluorescent PCR products that are separated on a capillary sequencer and...
