Abstract excerpt
Human epidemiological studies suggest an association between rapid acetylator phenotype and colorectal cancer. Acetylator genotype-dependent expression by the human colon of arylamine N-acetylation capacity, catalyzed by acetyl coenzyme A-dependent N-acetyltransferase(s) (EC 2.3.1.5) (NAT), may b...
