Genosets
- Gs306Poor metabolizer of fluoropyrimidines (e.g. 5-fluorouracil, capecitabine or tegafur).Very important
- Gs312Intermediate metabolizer of fluoropyrimidines (such as 5-fluorouracil and capecitabine).Very important
- Gs313Normal DPYD activity and thus 5-FU metabolism predicted, since none of the three best described nonfunctional DPYD alleles were observed.Worth knowing
Genosets combine several genotypes. Twofold checks them in your report.

Notes
rs67376798, also known as c.2846 A>T, is a SNP in the DPYD gene on chromosome 1. Note that the "A>T" term in the name used in the literature for this SNP can be confusing, since the gene is in reverse orientation to the chromosome strand on the reference genome.
A;A
You can expect toxicity from 5-fluorouracil, a common treatment for various cancers. This variation does not influence your risk of cancer.
A;T
Slight possibility of being DPYD deficient, if a compound heterozygote, and therefore also at increased risk for chemotherapeutic toxicity if treated with 5-fluorouracil or other fluoropyrimidines.
