N-acetylation polymorphism is one of the representative pharmacogenetic traits that underlie interindividual and interethnic differences in response to xenobiotics. To develop a practical genotyping method to predict acetylator phenotype, we studied the conditions for accurate phenotyping, and identified the phenotype in 51 Japanese. Then we performed Southern blot analysis of genomic DNA from these subjects using 32P-labeled cDNA for polymorphic N-acetyltransferase in the liver, and found that four N-acetyltransferase alleles generated six genotypes. The present genotyping method predicted the rapid, intermediate, and slow acetylators correctly in 48 of 51 overall subjects (96%) and in all of 4 slow acetylators.

D011237 Predictive Value of Tests In screening and diagnostic tests, the probability that a person with a positive test is a true positive (i.e., has the disease), is referred to as the predictive value of a positive test; whereas, the predictive value of a negative test is the probability that the person with a negative test does not have the disease. Predictive value is related to the sensitivity and specificity of the test.
