Pharmacogenomic studies have revealed associations between rs1967309 in the adenylyl cyclase type 9 (<i>ADCY9</i>) gene and clinical responses to the cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) modulator dalcetrapib, however, the mechanism behind this interaction is still unknown. Here, we characterized selective signals at the locus associated with the pharmacogenomic response in human populations and we show that rs1967309 region exhibits signatures of positive selection in several human populat ...[more]
