Cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6), a member of the cytochrome P450 mixed-function oxidase system, is one of the most important enzymes involved in the metabolism of xenobiotics in the body. Whilst CYP2D6 is involved in the oxidation of a wide range of substrates of all the CYPs, there is considerable variability in its expression in the liver. The gene is located near two cytochrome P450 pseudogenes on chromosome 22q13.1. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. CYP2D6 activity was tested in "healthy infants receiving an oral dose (0.3 mg/kg) of dextromethorphan (DM) at 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, and 12 months of age. DM and its major metabolites were measured in urine. CYP2D6 genotype was determined by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism.

Human Cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate CYP2D6 in samples. An antibody specific for CYP2D6 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyCYP2D6 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for CYP2D6 is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of CYP2D6 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
