Variant Annotations
PharmGKB variant annotations provide information about variant-drug pairs based on individual PubMed publications. Each annotation represents information from a single paper and the goal is to report the information that the author states, not an interpretation of the paper. The PMID for supporting PubMed publications is found in the "Evidence" field.
Information presented, including study size, allele frequencies and statistics is taken directly from the publication. However, if the author does not correct p-values in cases of multiple hypotheses, curators may apply a Bonferroni correction. Curators attempt to report study size based on the actual number of participants used for the calculation of the association statistics, so the number may vary slightly from what is reported in the abstract of the paper. OMB Race Category information is derived from the paper and mapped to standardized categories. Category definitions may be found by clicking on the "OMB Race Category" link.

VIP Variant in UGT1A1
UGT1A1:*27
The "686C>A" (numbered with the 'a' of the start codon as 1) exon 1 polymorphism (P229Q; UGT1A1*27) has been observed in Asian populations, but at a lower allele frequency than G71R (UGT1A1*6). Occurring with a frequency between 0.005 and 0.028 in the Japanese and Taiwanese populations [Article:15179405, 9784835, 10975608], it was also observed at a frequency of 0.049 in a Japanese Gilbert syndrome sample [Article:15304120]. In vitro functional experiments revealed that the UGT1A1 enzyme containing the UGT1A1*27 variant only retains 7% of its residual wildtype activity level, indicating this variant could act as a molecular determinant of irinotecan response [Article:8528206, 12181437].
