Abstract excerpt
To determine whether the CYP2E1 genetic polymorphisms cause alterations in protein expression and enzyme catalytic activities, three CYP2E1 genetic polymorphisms, namely RsaI/PstI, DraI, and MspI types, were determined in liver genomic DNA isolated from 39 Japanese and 45 Caucasians. These genotypes were compared with levels of CYP2E1 and activities of 7-ethoxycoumarin O-deethylation and chlorzoxazone...
