Abstract excerpt
The debrisoquine/sparteine or CYP2D6 genetic polymorphism of drug oxidation is a common cause for interindividual variability in drug response. We recently identified a mutant allele, designated CYP2D6-E or CYP2D6*7, which is associated with the poor metabolizer phenotype and occurs in Caucasian populations with a frequency of about 1%. In contrast to other loss-of-function alleles, a full length protein with a...
