To develop rapid, reproducible single-tube PCR assays for detecting four primary CYP2D6 mutations that account for the majority of poor drug metabolizers.
Designed three single-tube tetra-primer PCR assays combining direct locus amplification and allele-specific amplification for CYP2D6*3, *4, and *6.
Developed a single-tube multiplex long PCR combining amplification for the CYP2D6*5 gene deletion and the CYP2D6 gene region.
Genotyped 114 alleles and validated assay accuracy and reproducibility (7–11 repeat runs) using restriction fragment length polymorphism and direct DNA sequencing.
Identified allele frequencies of 0% for CYP2D6*3, 28.1% for CYP2D6*4, 2.6% for CYP2D6*5, and 0.9% for CYP2D6*6 across the 114 evaluated alleles.
Achieved 100% concordance with restriction fragment length polymorphism and sequencing results across all 7 to 11 repeat tetra-primer PCR analyses.
