Compartment: membrane-bound, endoplasmic reticulum
Expression: highly inducible
Polymorphism:
1) genetic variation in CYP2C19 is responsible for poor drug metabolism [MIM:609535]
2) individuals can be characterized as either
a) extensive metabolizers
- homozygous dominant & heteroyzgous genotypes
b) poor metabolizers
- inherited in an autosomal recessive manner
- 2-5% of Caucasians
- 13-23% of Asian populations
- 38-79% of individuals from Polynesia & Micronesia.
3) several-many different alleles of CYP2C19
Laboratory:
- CYP2C19 enzyme activity
- CYP2C19 gene mutation
