Test Code MISC2MAYOU1A1V UDP-Glucuronosyl Transferase 1A1 TA Repeat Genotype, UGT1A1


Advisory Information


This test does not detect or report variants other than the *1 (TA6), *28 (TA7), *36 (TA5), and *6 (c.211G->A) alleles. Individuals with a *37 (TA8) allele cannot be distinguished from *28 (TA7) will be assigned *28 (TA7) by this methodology. Numerous variants outside of the TA repeat region have been described that impair UGT1A1 activity. Sequencing of the full gene is also available for detection of variants outside of the TA repeat region.

Useful For

Identifying individuals who are at increased risk of adverse drug reactions with drugs that are metabolized by UGT1A1; especially irinotecan, but also including atazanavir, nilotinib, pazopanib, and belinostat

 

Identifying individuals with Gilbert syndrome due to the presence of homozygous UGT1A1*6 (c.211G->A) allele, TA7, homozygous TA8, or compound heterozygous *6, TA7 or TA8

 

Identifying individuals who are carriers of Gilbert syndrome due to the presence of heterozygous TA7 or TA8
