Abstract excerpt
At least two substitutions were made at each of five amino acid residues in rat cytochrome P450 2B1 that align to residues of known importance in other P450s. The mutants were histidine tagged for purification from Escherichia coli, and the proteins were assessed for testosterone and 7-alkoxycoumarin oxidation. Alteration of each of the sites studied, Phe-115, Ser-294, Phe-297, Ala-298, and Leu-362, was found to...
