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

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
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
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.
