Abstract excerpt
The structural basis of cooperativity of progesterone hydroxylation catalyzed by human cytochrome P450 3A4 has been investigated. A recent study suggested that substitution of larger side chains at positions Leu-211 and Asp-214 partially mimics the action of effector by reducing the size of the active site. Based on predictions from molecular modeling that Phe-304 in the highly conserved I helix is involved in...
