Identification of CYP2B6 sequence variants by use of multiplex PCR with allele-specific genotyping.

چکیده
BACKGROUND Cytochrome P450 2B6 (CYP2B6) has a role in the metabolism of many clinically important substances, but the variation within the CYP2B6 gene has not been fully characterized. The aim of the present study was to develop a reliable and robust assay for determining genotypic variants. METHODS We used a two-stage procedure. An initial multiplex PCR reaction amplified the relevant gene fragments in exonic and regulatory regions to ensure isolation of CYP2B6 from its similar pseudogene (CYP2B7). This product was then genotyped by allele-specific PCR. RESULTS The assay detected the following published single-nucleotide polymorphisms: C64T (Arg22Cys), C78T, G216C, G516T (Gln172His), C777A (Ser259Arg), A785G (Lys262Arg), and C1459T (Arg487Cys), as well as additional loci found within the single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) databases: A1190G, C1268A, C1330T, A1382G, A1402T, and an A/T SNP in intron 2 (A12917T). This approach detected all common, previously reported alleles and identified a new allele (CYP2B6*4C) present in 2.2% of a Caucasian population. Genotypic frequencies obtained were consistent with previously published results. CONCLUSIONS This method is simple, reliable, rapid, and amenable to automation and could facilitate the large-scale genotypic analysis of CYP2B6.

Warfarin genotyping with hybridization-induced aggregation on a poly(ethylene terephthalate) microdevice.
Warfarin, a commonly prescribed oral anticoagulant, is burdened by a narrow therapeutic index and high inter-individual variability in response, making it the second leading cause of drug-related emergency room visits. Since genetic factors contribute significantly to warfarin sensitivity, a genotype-guided dosing strategy may reduce the occurrence of adverse events. While numerous methods have...
متن کاملMALDI-TOF mass spectrometry for multiplex genotyping of CYP2B6 single-nucleotide polymorphisms.
BACKGROUND CYP2B6 is a highly variable and polymorphic cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzyme involved in the biotransformation of an increasing number of drugs, including cyclophosphamide, bupropion, and the nonnucleosidic reverse transcriptase inhibitor efavirenz. Several nonsynonymous and promoter single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the CYP2B6 gene are associated with altered hepatic expression ...

BACKGROUND Single-nucleotide polymorphisms and single-base deletions within the cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) gene have been associated with a poor metabolizer (PM) phenotype and display a frequency of 7-10% in the Caucasian population. METHODS We developed a reliable and rapid procedure to identify five major PM-associated mutations (CYP2D6*4, *7, and *8) and deletions (CYP2D6*3 and *6) by re...
