CYP2B6 gene allele [Genotype] in Blood or Tissue by Molecular genetics method Nominal   72882-4

LOINC Code


LOINC code72882-4
nameCYP2B6 gene allele [Genotype] in Blood or Tissue by Molecular genetics method Nominal
descriptionA patient's genotype for the CYP2B6 gene is typically reported as *A/*B where A is the allele from one chromosome and B is the allele from the other chromosome. The genotype is determined by the analysis of specific single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the gene by various molecular techniques, including PCR and microarray. A number of variants within this gene are associated with altered drug metabolism have been described, including *8 (415A>G), *9 (516G>T), *16 (983T>C), and *5 (1459C>T). In some cases, SNP results are analyzed by bioinformatics computer software to determine a patient's overall genotype.

propertyGeno  =  Genotype
timePt  =  Point in time:  To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements.

scaleNom  =  Nominal:  Nominal or categorical responses that do not have a natural ordering. (e.g., names of bacteria, reported as answers, categories of appearance that do not have a natural ordering, such as, yellow, clear, bloody.
methodMolgen  =  Molecular Genetics:  General class of methods used to detect genetic attributes on a molecular basis including RFL, PCR and other methods.

Associated Observations

LOINC codes that represent optional associated observation(s) for a clinical observation or laboratory test. A LOINC term may represent a single associated observation or panel containing several associated observations.

History/Usage

first released
last updated2.68
last change typeNAM  - change to Analyte/Component
change reasonRelease 2.68: CLASS: Updated to MOLPATH.PHARMG, the more representative LOINC Class for this concept.; SYSTEM: Updated System from "Bld/Tiss/Sal" to "Bld/Tiss" since this System in LOINC encompasses all specimens used for germline nucleic acid testing, including blood, tissue and cells contained in swabs as well as fluids such as saliva.; COMPONENT: Updated Component to align with the LOINC term naming model for concepts used to report allelic genotypes (e.g. CYP2B6*1/*8 ), which was the original intent for this term.; Release 2.67: CLASS: Updated to MOLPATH.PHARMG, the more representative LOINC Class for this concept.; SYSTEM: Updated System from "Bld/Tiss/Sal" to "Bld/Tiss" since this System in LOINC encompasses all specimens used for germline nucleic acid testing, including blood, tissue and cells contained in swabs as well as fluids such as saliva.; Previous Releases: Based on LOINC Committee review (June 2016), "targeted" was added to the Component to clarify that this test is looking for a specific set of mutations as described in the LOINC User Guide under the Molecular Genetics section.
