Alcohol metabolism in Asian-American men with genetic polymorphisms of aldehyde dehydrogenase.

Annals of internal medicine - 1 Sept 1997

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: About half of certain Asians have a deficiency of the low-Km aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH2) isoenzyme. This deficiency results from inheritance of a mutant ALDH2*2 allele. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether Asian Americans with ALDH2*2 alleles differ from Asian Americans without this mut...
