Abstract excerpt
The use of human cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes is increasing for the production of drug metabolites used for drug safety testing and doping analysis. Major challenges are high-priced cofactors, poor stability, and comparatively low activities. We have shown previously that production of specific metabolites in milligrams to gram scale is feasible using human CYPs recombinantly expressed in fission yeast. In this...
