Abstract excerpt
Arylamine N-acetyltransferase 1 (NAT1) conjugates several aromatic amines and their N-hydroxylated metabolites by N- or O-acetylation. NAT1 genotype and phenotype is known to be variable in human populations. In this study, we set out to measure the functional relevance of the frequent NAT1 gene variants for the activity in human red blood cells. Healthy German volunteers (N = 314) were genotyped for NAT1 alleles...
