# PGx Allele Definitions and PGx Guidelines

DRAGEN Array star allele calling leverages the star allele definitions provided by PharmVar and PharmGKB. DRAGEN Array star allele phenotype annotation, using the “star-alle annotate” command, is achieved through direct lookup into public PGx guidelines CPIC or DPWG, which is selected by the user when running DRAGEN Array.

See table below for details of the data sources.

DRAGEN Array “star-alle annotate” command provides both metabolizer status and activity score annotations for genes covered by the CPIC and DPWG guidelines.

Specifically, CPIC metabolizer/phenotype annotations are supported for CACNA1S, CYP2B6, CYP2C19, CYP2C9, CYP2D6, CYP3A5, DPYD, G6PD, MT-RNR1, NUDT15, RYR1, SLCO1B1, TPMT, UGT1A1, CFTR, IFNL3/IFNL4 and VKORC1, among them activity scores are supported for CYP2C9, CYP2D6, and DPYD. DPWG metabolizer/phenotype annotations are supported for CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C19, CYP2C9, CYP2D6, CYP3A4, CYP3A5, DPYD, NUDT15, SLCO1B1, TPMT, UGT1A1, VKORC1 and F5, among them activity scores are supported for CYP2D6 and DPYD.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://help.bioinsight.illumina.com/dragen-array/dragen-array-v1.0/reference/pgx-allele-definitions-and-pgx-guidelines.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
