Screening of Dihydropyrimidine Dehydrogenase Genetic Variants by Direct Sequencing in Different Ethnic Groups
Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPYD) is an enzyme that regulates the rate-limiting step in pyrimidine metabolism, especially catabolism of fluorouracil, a chemotherapeutic agent for cancer. In order to determine the genetic distribution of DPYD, we directly sequenced 288 subjects from five ethnic...
