Abstract excerpt
Human UDP-glycosyltransferases (UGTs) are responsible for the glycosylation of a wide variety of endogenous substrates and commonly prescribed drugs. Different genetic polymorphisms in UGT genes are implicated in interindividual differences in drug response and cancer risk. However, the genetic complexity beyond these variants has not been comprehensively assessed. We here leveraged whole-exome and whole-genome...
