Article Synopsis
  • - The Cytochrome P450 family of enzymes metabolizes around 80% of small molecule drugs, but genetic variants can significantly affect how these drugs are processed, leading to risks of incorrect dosing and severe side effects.
  • - Using a technique called VAMP-seq, researchers measured the protein abundance of over 7,600 single amino acid variants in CYP2C19, revealing key structural features essential for enzyme function and showcasing how variants at specific positions can impact protein levels.
  • - The study also compared variants in CYP2C19 and CYP2C9, showing that while most amino acid exchanges had little effect, certain changes in substrate recognition sites diminished abundance in CYP2C19, indicating evolutionary trade-offs between stability and
