Exam V - Genomics Flashcards
______________ refers to the variation of a single gene or relatively few genes influencing a drug response
Pharmacogenetics
___________ encompasses the genome (all genes)
*More than 1 genetic variant
Pharmacogenomics
The set of observable properties of an organism that are produced by the interaction of the genotype and the environment
*what you see on the pt d/t different genotypes
Phenotype
The genes that code for a trait
Genotypes
_______ specify the trait. _______ specify what form the gene takes.
*BLUE BOX
-Genes
-Alleles
The _________ makes guidelines for using genetics to select meds
CPIC
Inherited disorder in which the body cannot process the amino acids phenylalanine and tyrosine
Alkaptonuria
two or more forms of a gene that occupy a specific position on a specific chromosome
Allele
the fraction or percentage of times a specific allele is observed in proportion to the total of all possible alleles that could occur at a specific location on a chromosome
Allele Frequency
the DNA-containing structure of cellular organisms that contains all or most of the genes of the organism
Chromosome
the sequence of DNA that occupies a specific position on the chromosome and determines a particular characteristic in an organism
Gene
a representation of an organisms’ genetic makeup or the particular set of genes that the organism possesses
Genotype
having two different alleles for the same trait
Heterozygous
having an identical allele for a single trait
Homozygous
the observable physical or biochemical characteristics of the organisms genetic makeup
Phenotype
-a specific genetic alteration; occurs in more than 1% of the population
-Any genetic variation in the DNA sequence
-Can be used interchangeably with variant
Polymorphism
the most common type of genetic or allelic variation
Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNPs)
Poor metabolizer phenotype
PM
Intermediate metabolizer phenotype
IM
Extensive metabolizer phenotype
EM
Ultra-rapid metabolizer phenotype
UM
Variations in the DNA sequence that occur in at least 1% of the population
*BLUE BOX
Polymorphisms
1 nucleotide is exchanged for another in a given position
Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNPs)
Name the 3 areas of variations
-Drug-metabolizing enzymes
-Enzyme receptor genes
-Drug transporter genes
