<p>We discovered that a polymorphism in the promoter of the VKORCI gene is associated with warfarin sensitivity. This polymorphism can explain both the inter??individual and inter-ethnic differences in warfarin dose requirements. Furthermore, the polymorphism is also associated with promoter activity. Thus, the promoter sequence or activity of the VKORCI gene of a subject can be used to predict how much warfarin should be prescribed for the subject. Relevant methods and compositions are provided.</p> |
