Cytochrome P450 in Humans

  • Chapter
Cytochrome P450

Part of the book series: Handbook of Experimental Pharmacology ((HEP,volume 105))

Abstract

This chapter will focus on the catabolic or foreign compound (xenobiotic)- metabolizing cytochromes P450 found in humans. Those cytochromes P450 involved in metabolic pathways leading to steroid synthesis will be thoroughly dealt with in other chapters of the handbook.
