For the journal Pharmacogenetics journal Refimprove date November 2010 The terms pharmacogenomics and pharmacogenetics tend to be used interchangeably, and a precise, consensus definition of either remains elusive. Pharmacogenetics is generally regarded as the study or clinical testing of genetic variation that gives rise to differing response to drug s, while pharmacogenomics is the broader application of genomic technologies to new drug discovery and further characterization of older drugs. Pharmacogenetics refers to genetic differences in metabolic pathways which can affect individual responses to drugs, both in terms of therapeutic effect as well as adverse effects. ref name Klotz 2007 Cite journal last1 Klotz first1 U. title The role of pharmacogenetics in the metabolism of antiepileptic drugs pharmacokinetic and therapeutic implications. journal Clin Pharmacokinet volume 46 issue 4 pages 271 9 month year 2007 doi pmid 17375979 ref In oncology, pharmacogenetics historically refers to germline mutations e.g., single nucleotide polymorphisms affecting genes coding for liver enzymes responsible for drug disposition and pharmacokinetics , whereas pharmacogenomics refers to somatic ...

Theranostics a portmanteau of therapeutics and diagnostics is a proposed process of diagnostic therapy for individual patients to test them for possible reaction to taking a new medication and to tailor a treatment for them based on the test results. Theranostics would be a key part of personalized medicine and require considerable advances in predictive medicine . Theranostics would also rely on pharmacogenomics , drug discovery using genetics , molecular biology and Microarray microarray chips technology. In 2011 advancements were made in the field of theranostics with the development of novel heptamethine dyes IR 808 and other analogs which are currently being explored for their unique uses in the individualized treatment of cancerous patients with the aid of PDT , co administration with other drugs, and irradiation irradiation. ref name Tan Tan X, Luo S, Wang D, et al.

The Variome is the whole set of genetic variation s found in populations of species that have gone through a relatively short evolution change. For example, among humans, about 1 in every 1,200 nucleotide base s differ. However, as the human species diverged only 10,000 years ago, this variation rate is comparatively small. In practice, the variome can be the sum of the single nucleotide polymorphisms SNPs of the population. Variomics is the study of variome and a branch of bioinformatics . Projects There are a number of international project studying the human variome, including the International HapMap Project and the Human Variome Project HVP . The HapMap Project aims to identify and catalog genetic similarities and differences among humans. The HVP aims to collect data on all human genetic variation.

The olfactory receptor proteins are members of a large family of G protein coupled receptors GPCR arising from single coding exon genes. Olfactory receptors share a 7 transmembrane domain structure with many neurotransmitter and hormone receptors and are responsible for the recognition and G protein mediated transduction of odorant signals. The olfactory receptor gene family is the largest in the genome.

For the theory that psychological traits are hereditary geneticism A geneticist is a biologist who studies genetics , the science of genes , heredity , and genetic variation variation of organism s. A geneticist can be employed as a researcher or lecturer. Some geneticists perform experiments and analyze data to interpret the inheritance of skills. A geneticist is also a Consultant or Medical Doctor who has been trained in genetics as a specialization. They evaluate, diagnose, and manage patients with hereditary conditions or congenital malformations, genetic risk calculation, and mutation analysis as well as refer patients to other medical specialties. Geneticists participate in courses from many areas, such as biology , chemistry , physics , microbiology , cell biology , English studies English , and mathematics . They also participate in more specific genetics courses such as molecular genetics , transmission genetics, population genetics , quantitative genetics , ecological genetics , and genomics .

Point of care genetic testing incorporates the newest most sophisticated techniques to identify variations in the genetic sequence at the bedside enabling clinicians to react and alter therapy based upon the results. Traditional genetic testing involves the analysis of DNA in order to detect genotype s related to a heritable disease or phenotype of interest for clinical purposes. However, current testing methods require days to weeks before results are available limiting the clinical applicability of genetic testing in a number of circumstances.
