“…Typically, CYPs oxidize a substrate by incorporation of a single oxygen atom, which defines them as monooxygenase-type enzymes. They catalyze hydroxylation, epoxidation, N, S, and O dealkylation, N oxidation, sulfoxidation, dehalogenation, and a number of other more complex reactions (9,27,40). Also, CYP enzymes play a major role in xenobiotic metabolism and in phase I drug metabolism due to the oxidation of exogenous and endogenous chemicals, including drugs and carcinogens (21).…”
