Polymorphism of the cytochrome P450 CYP1A1 (ILE462VAL) gene in the populations of Balkars and Karachays
2021
Cytochrome P450 is an enzyme involved in the metabolism of phase 1 xenobiotics, toxins, endogenous hormones and pharmaceuticals. The purpose of this research is studying the polymorphism of the CYP1A1 gene (Ile462Val, rs1048943) in the Turkic-speaking populations of the central part of the North Caucasus region (Balkars and Karachays). We analyzed DNA isolated from leukocytes of peripheral venous blood of a total of 177 unrelated Balkars and Karachays (104 Balkars, 73 Karachays). As a result of the questionnaire, the ethnicity of the studied individuals was established, indicating their ancestors up to the third generation. The method of genotyping was performed by real-time PCR using competing TaqMan probes. As a result: the frequency of the 462Val variant in the sample of Balkars was 8,6% (95% CI: 5,21–13,33), slightly above the frequency range found in European populations. In the sample of Karachays, the frequency of the 462Val allele was 7,5% (95% CI: 9,82-13.08), which is the upper limit of values typical for European populations. In conclusion, in the Turkic-speaking populations of the central part of the North Caucasus, the CYP1A1 462Val allele occurs with a frequency characteristic of the Near Eastern and European populations
