Cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs) play a critical role in the body, but can also be targets for cancer and infectious disease treatment. Unfortunately, current CYP inhibitors cause side effects because ...

Just as in other organisms, toxins in bees can be broken down by enzymes called cytochrome P450s. The study identified one subfamily of these enzymes in bees -- CYP9Q -- and found it was ...

CtdY belongs to a large family of enzymes known as cytochrome P450s that perform a variety of different functions and are being studied for their potential use in industrial and pharmaceutical ...

The reference genomes expose key gene families, including cytochrome P450s, that contribute to herbicide resistance. These resources accelerate the development of innovative weed control strategies ...

The protein that metabolized DDT, CYP6Z1, belongs to a class of cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (P450s) that are known to be important detoxifying agents in many species. Many studies in a variety ...

Doty of the University of Washington in Seattle. Plants and animals make numerous enzymes, called cytochrome P450s, that break down various harmful chemicals. One such human enzyme, CYP2B6 ...
