Determination of novel CYP2D6 haplotype using the targeted sequencing followed by the long-read sequencing and the functional characterization in the Japanese population

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has identified variations in cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2D6 associated with drug responses. However, determination of novel haplotypes is difficult because of the short reads generated by NGS. We aimed to identify novel CYP2D6 variants in the Japanese population and predict the CYP2D6 phenotype based on in vitro metabolic studies. Using a targeted NGS panel (PKSeq), 990 Japanese genomes were sequenced, and then novel...
