Abstract excerpt
The association of the arylamine N-acetyltransferase polymorphism and breast cancer has been investigated by analysis of genomic DNA from 160 breast cancer patients and 132 healthy women. Five mutations of the NAT2 gene were studied by using allele-specific PCR amplification and restriction mappi...
