Genetic and methylation variation in the CYP2B6 gene is related to circulating p,p′-dde levels in a population-based sample

•A whole genome scan was used to investigate the metabolic route of p,p′-DDE in human.•Genetic variation in the CYP2B6 gene was associated with p,p′-DDE levels.•Methylation close to the same gene was associated with p,p′-DDE levels.•Modern genetic analyses showed CYP2B6 to be linked to p,p′-DDE leve...
