Abstract excerpt
The genetic polymorphism of cytochrome P450 (CYPs)drug-metabolizing enzymes are well studied in human populations for drug safety and efficacy. CYP2C9 is a highly polymorphic CYP enzyme that oxidizing the indigenous compounds and xenobiotics. The present study was pursued to evaluate the genetic variation across the CYP2C9 gene among major groups of the Pakistani population. The CYP2C9 genomic region holding...
