Drug metabolizing enzymes (DMEs) play an important role in the biotransformation of various xenobiotics, generally by detoxifying and eliminating substrates by converting them to more hydrophilic derivatives, or in some cases, activating substrates by conversion to intermediates that are highly reactive with biological macromolecules.
