| abstractText | Three genes encoding arylamine N-acetyltransferase were identified in Balb/c mice. All three genes were cloned from genomic DNA, sequenced and expressed in a bacterial expression system. Two of the genes corresponded to Nat-1 and Nat-2 which have been previously identified in A/J and C57B1/6 strains of mice (Martell et al., 1991). The new gene, designated Nat-3, can be distinguished from the other mouse Nat genes both by specific amplification using PCR and by restriction-endonuclease digestion. The products of all three genes are demonstrated to catalyse acetylation of aminofluorene and anisidine following expression in Escherichia coli. |
