Metabolic activation of heterocyclic aromatic amines catalyzed by human arylamine N-acetyltransferase isozymes (NAT1 and NAT2) expressed in Salmonella typhimurium.

Carcinogenesis - 1 Mar 1995

Abstract excerpt

Heterocyclic aromatic amines formed during the cooking of meat and meat-derived products can be activated to reactive metabolites which bind to DNA, induce mutations and cause tumors in animals. A principal route of metabolic activation is N-oxidation to hydroxylamines, and their subsequent activation by acetyltransferase-catalyzed O-acetylation. We have used mutagenicity assays to study O-acetylation of...
