CYP2C8 7 Allele Definition
Human CYP2C8*7 allele is located in the vicinity of 10q23.33 and is approximately 33 kb in length. This allele, a variant form of the CYP2C8 wild-type allele, encodes cytochrome P450 2C8*7 protein. The CYP2C8*7 allele exhibits a clinically-relevant SNP (c.556C>T) in exon 4 that results in a R186X coding change. This alteration yields a truncated cytochrome P450 2C8*7 protein that is enzymatically inactive.
