This is a missense variant in the CYP2C9 gene.
Key Literature Trait Associations
Warfarin Sensitivity
CYP2C9*5 is a rare loss-of-function variant found primarily in African American populations (~3.5% allele frequency). The substitution reduces CYP2C9 enzymatic activity, leading to impaired metabolism of warfarin and other CYP2C9 substrates. This variant is important for accurate warfarin dose prediction in populations of African descent where *2 and *3 are less prevalent.

Case-control study of 1,000 Han Chinese individuals (450 epilepsy cases, 550 controls) examining associations between STX1B polymorphisms and epilepsy treatment response. The rs140820592 variant showed significant association with reduced epilepsy risk (OR=0.542, p=0.004) and drug-resistant epilepsy risk (OR=0.260, p=0.004), with eQTL analysis confirming rs140820592 regulates STX1B expression in brain tissues.
