This is a frameshift variant in the CYP3A5 gene.
Key Literature Trait Associations
Tacrolimus Metabolism
CYP3A5*7 is a frameshift insertion in exon 11 that causes complete loss of CYP3A5 function. It is found almost exclusively in African populations (8-10% allele frequency). Along with *3 and *6, *7 genotyping is important for accurate CYP3A5 phenotype assignment and tacrolimus dose optimization in diverse populations.

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.
