Abstract excerpt
In humans, the glycine N-acyltransferase enzyme (GLYAT) is thought to be important in the detoxification of endogenous and xenobiotic compounds which contain a carboxylic acid group, such as benzoic, isovaleric, or acetylsalicylic acids. The aim of this work was to report a comprehensive investigation of GLYAT genetic polymorphisms in DNA samples from 55 subjects of French Caucasian origin, using polymerase chain...
