Located on chromosome 13, the NUDT15 gene encodes the nudix hydrolase 15 enzyme. Mutations in this gene result in poor metabolism of thiopurines, and are associated with thiopurine-induced early leukopenia.GHR

Note that multiple pseudogenes of this gene have been identified, and technologies (such as DNA chips used by many direct-to-consumer companies) may not be accurate for this reason.
