Inherited Amplification of an Active Gene in the Cytochrome P450 CYP2D Locus as a Cause of Ultrarapid Metabolism of Debrisoquine

Deficient hydroxylation of debrisoquine is an autosomal recessive trait that affects ≈7% of the Caucasian population. These individuals (poor metabolizers) carry deficient CYP2D6 gene variants and have an impaired metabolism of several commonly used drugs. The opposite phenomenon also exists, and ce...
