Details

Cytogenetic Location: chrX : q23
GP mRNA Boundary: chrX : 113724807 - 114050880
GP Gene Boundary: chrX : 113714807 - 114053880
Strand: plus
Product Name: 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin) receptor 2C
The mRNA boundaries are calculated using the gene's default feature set from NCBI, mapped onto the UCSC Golden Path. PharmGKB sets gene boundaries by expanding the mRNA boundaries by no less than 10,000 bases upstream (5') and 3,000 bases downstream (3') to allow for potential regulatory regions.

    Risk or phenotype-associated allele: T. Phenotype: The T allele was more frequently found in subjects not gaining 10% or more of their body weight, compared with those who did gain 10% or more of their body weight. None of the subjects who gained >10% of their initial body weight over 6 weeks carried a T allele (0/11). Study size: 42. Study population/ethnicity: Caucasian acutely ill patients with schizophrenia taking olanzapine. Significance metric(s): p = 0.0035. Type of association: CO.
