Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Human N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) genetic polymorphisms may modify drug efficacy and toxicity and cancer susceptibility from carcinogen exposure. Two human NAT2 alleles, NAT2*5I and NAT2*12D, were identified recently. In NAT2*5I, a new single nucleotide polymorphism AT (L137F) was found coexisting with single nucleotide polymorphisms TC (I114T), CT (silent) and AG (K268R). The other allele NAT2*12D...
