Abstract excerpt
The procedures for determining paraoxonase (PON1) status and for determining PON1 genotypes for polymorphisms in coding and important regulatory regions are described. PON1 status is determined by a functional two-substrate analysis of plasma PON1 activities. Differences in catalytic efficiency of the PON1₁₉₂Q and PON1₁₉₂R alloforms result in the clear separation of all three phenotypes at position 192 (Q/Q, Q/R,...
