Abstract excerpt

Methylation is an important event in the biotransformation pathway for many drugs and xenobiotic compounds. We screened DNA from 48 Japanese individuals for single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in six methyltransferase (MT) genes (catechol-O-MT, COMT; guanidinoacetate N-MT, GAMT; histamine N-MT, HNMT; nicotinamide N-MT, NNMT; phosphatidylethanolamine N-MT, PEMT; and phenylethanolamine N-MT, PNMT) by direct...
