[Diversity of P 450: biology and application of diversozyme].

Abstract excerpt

Cytochrome P 450s (P 450s) are a gene superfamily of heme enzymes involved in xeno-or endo-biotic metabolisms. They have approximately 500 isozymes via evolution, immense diversity in their functions and a broad range of substrate specificities. Thus, they are called diversozymes and their versatility is understood as a mechanism for living via detoxification of toxicants. However, some of the huge human-made...
