Abstract excerpt
CYP6B4, a cytochrome P450 gene from the tiger swallowtail Papilio glaucus, is transcriptionally induced in the midgut by dietary furanocoumarins, plant allelochemicals that can crosslink DNA in their UV-activated form. The CYP6B4 promoter contains an overlapping EcRE/ARE/XRE-xan element similar t...
