Abstract excerpt
The role of human cytochrome P450 (CYP) in the metabolic activation of tobacco-related N-nitrosamines was examined by Salmonella mutation test using a series of genetically engineered Salmonella typhimurium YG7108 strains each co-expressing a form of CYP (CYP1A1, CYP1A2, CYP1B1, CYP2A6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP2E1, CYP3A4, and CYP3A5) together with human NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase.
