• Abstract:

  Background: African populations possess scant data with respect to the N-acetyltransferase enzyme (NAT2). The enzyme is associated with inter-individual variation in drug metabolism leading to bimodal classification within populations. Where data on Africans exist, study populations have usually been small and limited in number of polymorphic..
