Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Exposure to the mycotoxin aflatoxin B1 (AFB 1 ) strongly correlates with hepatocellular carcinoma. P450 enzymes convert AFB 1 into a highly reactive epoxide that forms unstable 8,9-dihydro-8-( N 7-guanyl)-9-hydroxyaflatoxin B1 (AFB 1 - N 7 -Gua) DNA adducts, which convert to stable mutagenic AFB 1 formamidopyrimidine (FAPY) DNA adducts. In CYP1A2-expressing budding yeast, AFB 1 is a weak...
