Abstract excerpt
Michaelis-Menten kinetic constants for sulfamethazine (SMZ) and p-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) metabolism were determined in 2 very rapid, 8 intermediate, and 10 slow acetylator human livers. The mean apparent KM values for the monomorphic substrate PABA were 70 +/- 20, 180 +/- 50, and 310 +/- 30 microM for the slow, intermediate, and very rapid enzymes, respectively, whereas the polymorphic substrate SMZ exhibited...
