CYP3A5 Variant Allele Frequencies in Dutch Caucasians

Abstract

On the basis of its allelic frequency, screening for the CYP3A5*3 allele in the Caucasian population is extremely relevant. In addition, screening for the CYP3A5*2 allele may be taken into consideration in individuals heterozygous for the CYP3A5*3 allele. The CYP3A5*4, *5, *6, and *7 alleles have low allelic frequencies that do not support initial screening.
