Abstract: BACKGROUND & AIM: To compare the allelic variants of NAT1 genes the wild-type alleles between lung cancer population and the normal populations of Yunnan province. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Polymerase chain reaction restriction-fragment length polymorphism (RCR-RFLP) and allele specific-PCR(AS-PCR) methods was emplyed to justify genotype of the aim population. RESULTS: The results show that there was no significant difference between and genotype frequencies between case and control population. CONCLUSION: Our date suggest that there wasn't relationship between the genotype and lung cancer in lung cancer population and the normal populations of Yunnan province.

Key words: gene polymorphism, N-acetyltransferase, lung cancer cases of Yunnan population, polymerase chain reaction restriction-fragment length polymorphism, allele specific-PCR
