TABLE 3

Estimated CYP2C19 enzyme abundance and variability in relation to genotypes

Based on in vitro formation rate of 4′-hydroxymephenytoin at a single concentration of S-mephenytoin (50 µM) in 123 HLMs. Five samples (two CYP2C19*1/*2 and three CYP2C19*2/*2) yielded values below quantitative level and were excluded from the 128 genotyped HLMs. The “null” refers to CYP2C19*2 or *4 allele.

  • a CYP2C19*1/*4 and CYP2C19*1/*2 were combined into one CYP2C19*1/null group, as both genotypes were predicted to be intermediate metabolizers (de Morais et al., 1994; Ferguson et al., 1998).

  • b Unit of activity is nmol 4′-hydroxymephenytoin/min per milligram microsomal protein.

  • c Unit of enzyme abundance is pmol/mg protein.

  • d SimCYP default value.
