    (Wiley, 2021-09) Sangkuhl, Katrin; Claudio‐Campos, Karla; Cavallari, Larisa H.; Agundez, Jose A.G.; Whirl‐Carrillo, Michelle; Duconge, Jorge; Del Tredici, Andria L.; Wadelius, Mia; Rodrigues Botton, Mariana; Woodahl, Erica L.; Scott, Stuart A.; Klein, Teri E.; Pratt, Victoria M.; Daly, Ann K.; Gaedigk, Andrea; Medical and Molecular Genetics, School of Medicine
    The Pharmacogene Variation Consortium (PharmVar) catalogues star (*) allele nomenclature for the polymorphic human CYP2C9 gene. Genetic variation within the CYP2C9 gene locus impacts the metabolism or bioactivation of many clinically important drugs including NSAIDs, phenytoin, anti-diabetic agents and angiotensin receptor blocker. Variable CYP2C9 activity is of particular importance regarding efficacy and safety of warfarin and siponimod as indicated in their package inserts. This GeneFocus provides a comprehensive overview and summary of CYP2C9 and describes how haplotype information catalogued by PharmVar is utilized by the Pharmacogenomics Knowledgebase (PharmGKB) and the Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium (CPIC).
