Description
This guide to the structure, function and mechanism of the cytochromes P450 focuses on the role of P450s in xenobiotic metabolism and toxicity. Colour illustrations show how modelling of P450s can rationalize their substrate specificity for the metabolism of both endogenous and exogenous chemicals.
