Cell microsomes containing individual cDNA-derived P450s were assayed for DTZ and 7-ethoxycoumarin oxidation as described in the text. Results have been corrected for background rates of substrate oxidation.

  • Substrate concentrations were DTZ (100 μM) and 7-ethoxycoumarin (400 μM). N.D., not determined.
