Pharmacogenetics is capitalizing on the tools of the Human Genome Project to introduce the new genomic information into drug development. The applications vary from identifying individuals at risk for a disease, to developing gene signatures of drug efficacy and adverse effects. Pharmacogenetics is
Genomics is defined as a set of related technologies which are focused on the discovery of genes implicated in human disease. Although many of the estimated 100,000 genes in the human genome have been at least partially identified by nucleotide sequence, elucidation of biological function has been a
Genetics and genomics are altering the drug discovery process and changing the practice of medicine. Genetic mapping and positional cloning will lead to the identification of disease susceptibility alleles of different genes and this will be further enabled by the publication of the DNA sequence of
New approaches to drug discovery have come about in recent years as a result of important advances in genomics and bioinformatics. The availability of genome-scale sequence data, the development of new tools for highthroughput gene expression monitoring, and improvements in the ability to analyze la
