rs4363657 is a SNP in the SLCO1B1 gene, a gene which encodes a protein involved in the liver's uptake of certain drugs, including the statins used to lower cholesterol levels.

[PMID 18650507] rs4363657 in nearly complete linkage disequilibrium with rs4149056 SNP (r2=0.97), which has been linked to statin metabolism. rs4149056(C) odds ratio for myopathy among 20,000 individuals taking either 40 or 80mg of simvastatin daily was 4.5 (CI: 2.6-7.7) per copy of the C allele, and 16.9 (CI: 4.7-61.1) in (C;C) as compared with (T;T) homozygotes.
