Abstract excerpt
The Caenorhabditis elegans genome contains more than 60 cytochrome P450 (CYP) genes. The exon-intron organizations of all of the available and potentially active C. elegans CYP genes were inferred by a newly developed program for predicting protein-coding exons based on the alignment of a genomic DNA sequence and a protein profile. From the predicted amino acid sequences, all of the C. elegans CYP genes except...
