Announcing PharmVar

PharmVar will be taking over the allele designations for the cytochrome P450 genes from the Human Cytochrome P450 (CYP) Allele Nomenclature Database, and later expanding to become a central repository for other pharmacogenes as well.  PharmGKB will partner with PharmVar to make sure PharmGKB has the most up-to-date pharmacogene allele information available in PharmVar.
