1 There is a genetic polymorphism in humans in the metabolism of S-mephenytoin which has been suggested to be mediated by either CYP2C18 or CYP2C9. Mephenytoin cytochrome P450 family 2 subfamily C member 18 Homo sapiens
2 We have isolated genomic clones for CYP2C9 and CYP2C18 from the liver of an individual phenotyped in vitro as an extensive metabolizer of S-mephenytoin. Mephenytoin cytochrome P450 family 2 subfamily C member 18 Homo sapiens
3 The availability of the sequences of the upstream regions and intron-exon junctions of CYP2C9 and CYP2C18 will allow future analysis of these genes in humans which differ in their ability to metabolize S-mephenytoin and other drugs. Sulfur cytochrome P450 family 2 subfamily C member 18 Homo sapiens
