Abstract excerpt
AIM: To study the genetic basis of N-acetylatransferase polymorphism in Chinese. METHODS: Genotypes in 120 healthy Han volunteers from 19 provinces of China were assayed. The 3 common mutant alleles (M1, M2, M3) and one normal wild-type (WT) allele of the N-acetyltransferase (NAT2) gene were detected by allele-specific polymerase chain reaction technique. RESULTS: The NAT2 allele frequencies in 120 Chinese (WT =...
