rs7900194
This is a missense variant in the CYP2C9 gene.
Key Literature Trait Associations
Warfarin Sensitivity
CYP2C9*8 is a reduced-function variant found primarily in African Americans at 4-8% allele frequency. The amino acid substitution impairs CYP2C9 catalytic activity, reducing warfarin metabolism. This variant is clinically important for warfarin dosing in populations of African descent where the common *2 and *3 alleles are rare, and its inclusion significantly improves dose prediction algorithms for these 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.
