Scope and Contents

Contents

Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) is an inactivating and rate-limiting enzyme for 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), and its deficiency is associated with a risk for developing a severe or fatal toxicity to 5-FU. In this study, to search for genetic variations of
DPYD
encoding DPD in Japanese, the putative promoter region, all exons, and flanking int...
