HUMAN GENOME PROJECT • 3.2 Gbases (5% encode genes) • 32,000 genes (22,000 on list right now) • 15,000 known genes and 17,000 predicted genes • 6000 gaps to fill in • 971 known disease genes (e.g., Huntington’s Gene) • 500 known genes encoding drug targets • 1 in 1000 bp differences between us • 1 in 100 bp differences between us and a gorilla
Pharmacogenomics and Pharmacogenetics: Impact on Drug Discovery and Development
DRUG DISCOVERY • IDENTIFY A DISEASE: High Blood Pressure • IDENTIFY A TARGET: Calcium Channel • TEST POTENTIAL DRUG CANDIDATES
Impact of Genetics/Genomics on Drug Discovery • Mining genetic sequence databases • Monitoring gene expression patterns during disease/drug treatment • Model organisms

Pharmacogenetics of Membrane Transporters • What is the genetic variation in the genes encoding membrane transporters in human populations? • What is the functional significance of the variant transporters in heterologous expression systems? • How does genetic variation in membrane transporters affect clinical drug response?
