Pharmacogenomics, the study of how genes affect a person’s response to drugs, is crucial in the realm of personalized medicine. Pharmacogenes, the genes encoding factors directly involved in drug actions, can be broadly classified into two functional groups: metabolic enzymes and transporters/receptors. Enzyme pharmacogenes are responsible for converting substrates, such as drugs, into smaller molecules, […]
