Abstract excerpt
A novel NAT2 tagSNP (rs1495741) and a 2-SNP genotype (rs1041983 and rs1801280) have been recently shown to accurately predict the NAT2 acetylator phenotypes in populations of exclusive or predominant European/White ancestry. We confirmed the accuracy of the tagSNP approach in White Brazilians, bu...
