Abstract excerpt
The flavin-containing monooxygenases (FMOs) are important for the disposition of a variety of toxicants, therapeutics, and dietary components. Although FMO1 is the dominant isoform in fetal liver and adult kidney and intestine and despite up to a 10-fold intersubject variation in expression, a paucity of information is available on FMO1 genetic variability. To address this issue, 24 samples from the Coriell DNA...
