Abstract:
N-acetyltransferase 2 is an important metabolic enzyme in the human body,participating mainly in the metabolism of medicine containing nitrogen.Presently a lot of researches have been undertaken in the respects like the determination of NAT2 genotype and drug metabolism and so on.In the recent years,more and more attention is paid to the simulation of three-dimension(solid)structure of protein,but the study is just at the outset on three-dimension structure of the NAT2 as well as its structure-function relationship when combined with drug.The research progress of construction of the three-dimension structure of NAT2 is summarized,emphasizing on its methods and tools.
