Cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) subfamily enzymes are involved in the metabolism of 40% of drugs in clinical use. Twin studies have indicated that 66% of the variability in CYP3A4 activity is hereditary. Yet, the complexity of the CYP3A locus and the lack of distinct drug metabolizer phenotypes has limit...
