Notes

rs1041983, also known as C282T, is a SNP in the NAT2 gene, potentially encoding a variant detoxifying protein known as an N-acetyltransferase, but which NAT2 variant depends on which other NAT2 SNPs were also inherited. See the discussion of the NAT2 gene for a more complete explanation. The allele associated with slow NAT2 metabolization for this SNP is rs1041983(T). Genosets gs154 and gs156 evaluate predicated NAT2 metabolizer phenotype based on rs1041983 and rs1801280.
