description: The Pharmacogene Variation (PharmVar) Consortium is the new home for
  PGx gene nomenclature serving as a centralized ‘Next-Generation’ Pharmacogene Variation
  data repository.  The major focus of PharmVar is to catalogue allelic variation
  of genes impacting drug metabolism, disposition and response and provide a unifying
  designation system (nomenclature) for the global pharmacogenetic/genomic community.
  Efforts are synchronized between PharmVar, the Pharmacogenomic KnowledgeBase, and
  the Clinical Pharmacogenetic Implementation Consortium.
