Pharmacogenetics 2

Biochem Final

QuestionAnswer
Value of Pharmacogenomics? Potential to optimize drug therapy, personalize medicine using novel technologies, optimize drug development
What is a polymorphism? A variation in DNA sequence
DNA variation with <1% of population is known as a? Mutation
DNA variation with > 1% of the population known as a? Genetic Polymorphism
Types of Polymorphism? SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism)
What can be affected by the polymorphism? Enzyme, transporter, receptor and disease
Polymorphism relevance to drugs? may affect drug PK or PD resulting in changes of dosing, efficacy and toxicity. May have no effect on a drug
Polymorphism relevance to disease? Increase or decrease disease susceptibility. Used for screening and diagnosing
What is an Allele? Variant (and wild type)changes on a particular location of a chromosome, each nucleotide base in the gene can be considered as an allele
Humans are__________organism Diploid
Humans have ________ copies of every chromosome 2 and thus have 2 copies of the same gene
One allele form is from your ______ and ______ Mother and Father
The first few letters/numbers of VKORC1 identify what? the gene
Numbers of VKORC1 C>T indicate what? the location of the nucleotide on the gene
The letter C and T of VKORC1 C>T represents what? which is the wild type allele and variant allele
Among the letters C>T of VKORC1 C>T the C and T represents what? The first letter C represents the original nucleotide (wild type) and the second letter T represents the nucleotide that has changed b/c of SNP
The star and number after the gene CYP2C19 *1 designates what? the allele
Relevance is what? The function of the gene depends on the allele
The relevance of gene CYP2C19 with *1____*2_____*3____ means 1* = normal (wild type)activity 2* = no enzyme activity 3* = no enzyme activity
The relevance of gene CYP2C9 with *1____*2____*3____ means 1* = normal (wild type)activity 2* = decreased enzyme activity 3* = decreased enzyme activity
Allele nomenclature can look exactly the ____________ but have __________ functional effects based the protein same, different
What is the single database for all genetic variation information? dbSNP (SNP database)
In genotype nomenclature each individual carries ___ allele of each gene. The allele carries the persons ______ 2, genotype
A set of alleles at multiple areas of a gene that co-exist on the same chromosome haplotype
Linkage disequilibrium is what? when a high frequency of allele coexist by random chance
True of False SNP will always alter protein synthesis? False it may or may not
SNP is a ______ base substituion within a gene single
Coding types of SNP synonymous, non-synonymous and premature stop codon
Other polymorphism types besides SNP gene deletion and copy number variant
GReference or ‘wild type’ nucleotide sequence GTG TCA CAG GAA GAG ATC Subsequent amino acid sequence Val Ser Gln Glu Glu Ile P-glycoprotein polymorphism – nucleotide sequence GTG TCA CAG GAA GAG ATT Subsequent amino acid sequence Val Ser Gln Glu Gl Synonymous no clear consensus if there is an effect (only one nucleotide has changed)
Reference or ‘wild type’ nucleotide sequence GCA TTA AAG TTA TAT CTA Subsequent amino acid sequence Ala Leu Lys Leu Tyr Leu TPMT*3A polymorphism – nucleotide sequence ACA TTA AAG TTA TGT CTA Subsequent amino acid sequence Thr Leu Lys Leu Cys Leu Non-synonymous functional effect, decreased TPMT enzyme activity. There are 2 nucleotide changes
Reference or ‘wild type’ nucleotide sequence ACC CCC TGG ATC CAG Subsequent amino acid sequence Thr Pro Trp Ile Gln CYP2C19*3 polymorphism – nucleotide sequence ACC CCC TAG ATC CAG Subsequent amino acid sequence Thr Pro STOP - - Pre-mature stop codon SNP, no enzyme activity
Affected drugs of synonymous SNP Efavirenz, Cyclosporine
Affected drugs of Non-synonymous SNP Azathioprine, 6-mercaptopurine
Affected drugs of Pre-mature stop codon Proton Pump Inhibitors (Omeprazole, Lansoprazole)
Gene deletion of CYP2D6 delete ______ of nucleotide BP that comprise CYP2D6 gene thousands, lead to loss of function and results in poor metabolizer
affected drugs of deletion of CYP2D6 gene SSRIs, tamoxifen, codeine, β-blockers
Copy Number Variant CYP2D6 leads to what? extra copies of the gene, results in rapid metabolizer penotype
affected drugs of copy number variant SSRIs, tamoxifen, codeine, β- blockers
Infectious disease caused by Abacavir leads to what? Hypersensitivity reaction
HSR symptoms includes what? fever, rash, GI and respiratory symptoms and general malaise
Population prevalence of abacavir use? Whites 5-8% and Asians 0-2% hispanic 1% and Blacks 0.5%
Abacavir clinical relevance of dosing is ____ affected by pharmacogenomic but ______ may be affected not, drug selection
True or false, Abacavir had a lot of literature on how pharmacogenomics impacts drug efficacy False, it has none
Abacavir clinical relevance of Toxicity confirmed that HSR was __ vs __ percent in the control vs screened patients 2.7, 0
What was the gene they were studying for Abacavir? HLA-B*5701
SHAPE study showed the toxicity level of HLA-B*5701 was ___ for blacks and whites and did so by ___ patch testign same, skin
ARIES study investigated HLA-B*5701 negative patients and ___ had HSR and ___ had positive skin patch test <1%, none
Abacavir genomic test of HLA typing indicated taht positive test for HLAB*5701 indicated ____ of HSR increase
Abacavir genomic test showed that those who were HLA-B*5701 negative were _____ to have HSR and those positive were ____ to have HSR <1%, >70%
Patients screened positive for HLAB*5701 should ____ be prescribed for abacavir not
What is included in the black box warning? screenig for HLA-B*5701
What are the ethical issues with pharmacogenetics? Loss of privacy, who to test on, distribution of justice, prevention strategies and clinical decisions
Problems with deciding who to test includes? genetic profiling, discrimination/staigmatization
Problems with distributive justice includes? distribution of benefits to all patients
Problems with prevention strategies includes? deciding prevention to be genotypic or phenotyipic
Problems with clinical decisions include? should test be carried out, what to do with the results
GINA of 2008 acts protects americans against discrimination based on? genetic information
Social issues of pharmacogenetics? social, employment, insurance, societal benefits and burdens, mandatory versus voluntary screening
