AllelePhenotype
*1/*1
Function not assigned More allele information
Patients with the *1/*1 genotype may have decreased metabolism of nicotine and cotinine as compared to patients with the *1/*6 genotype. However, this has been partially contradicted by another study. Other genetic and clinical factors may also affect nicotine metabolism.
*1/*6
Function not assigned More allele information
Patients with the *1/*6 genotype may have increased metabolism of nicotine and cotinine as compared to patients with the *1/*1 genotype. However, this has been partially contradicted by another study. Other genetic and clinical factors may also affect nicotine metabolism.
The level of evidence on this clinical annotation reflects the strength of the evidence base at the level of the gene and not at the level of individual alleles.

1. Annotation of CYP2B6 haplotypes CYP2B6*1CYP2B6*6

CYP2B6 *1/*6 is associated with increased clearance of cotinine and nicotine in healthy individuals as compared to CYP2B6 *1/*1.

Finding was significant across the total study cohort and in a subset of CYP2A6 "decreased metabolizers" (i.e. participants carrying at least one copy of the CYP2A6*2, *4, *7, *9 or *12 alelles) but lost significance in the subset of CYP2A6 normal metabolizers.

2. Annotation of CYP2B6 haplotypes CYP2B6*1CYP2B6*6

CYP2B6 *6 is associated with decreased metabolism of nicotine as compared to CYP2B6 *1.

In vitro study which looked at metabolism of nicotine to nicotine iminium and nornicotine.
