Structure of Mesorhizobium loti arylamine N-acetyltransferase 1 [PDF]

open access: yes
The arylamine N-acetyltransferase (NAT) enzymes have been found in a broad range of both eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms. The NAT enzymes catalyse the transfer of an acetyl group from acetyl Co-enzyme A onto the terminal nitrogen of a range of ...

NAT2 gene polymorphisms and plasma isoniazid concentration in Vietnamese tuberculosis patients

open access: yesWalailak Journal of Science and Technology, 2019
Background: Isoniazid (INH) is one of the most common drug for tuberculosis (TB) treatment and INH acetylation catalysed by non-inducible hepatic enzyme arylamine N-acetyltransferase type 2 (NAT2).

Pharmacogenomic heterogeneity of N-acetyltransferase 2: a comprehensive analysis of real world data in Indian tuberculosis patients and from literature and database review

open access: yesAnnals of Medicine
Background Isoniazid is primarily metabolized by the arylamine N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) enzyme. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the NAT2 gene could classify an individual into three distinct phenotypes: rapid, intermediate and slow ...

Polymorphisms of arylamine N-acetyltransferase2 and risk of lung and colorectal cancer

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2012
The arylamine N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) enzymes detoxify a wide range of naturally occurring xenobiotics including carcinogens and drugs. Point mutations in the NAT2 gene result in the variant alleles M1 (NAT2 *5A), M2 (NAT2*6A), M3 (NAT2*7) and M4 ...

Mapping the genes for arylamine N-acetyltransferases

open access: yes, 2000
Arylamine N-acetyltransferases are xenobiotic metabolising enzymes, involved in metabolic pathways leading to either detoxification or bio-activation of drugs and carcinogens. In humans, polymorphisms of the two functional NAT genes (NAT1 and NAT2} have been implicated to cancer susceptibility.

Investigating the mechanisms by which low NAT1 expression in tumor cells contributes to chemo-resistance in colorectal cancer

open access: yesClinical Epigenetics
Background In the therapeutic landscape of colorectal cancer (CRC), chemo-resistance poses a significant and prevalent obstacle that complicates treatment efficacy and patient outcomes.
