Today cytochrome P450 (P450) research is accepted as an integral
part of drug development and discovery. Work leading to this point
included biochemical studies on P450 in experimental animal models and
application to human systems. The development of recombinant expression
systems has been an important part of the progress, and in this article
we describe some recently developed bacterial systems that can be used
for the production of metabolites, genotoxicity testing, and screening
in random mutagenesis work. Rate-limiting aspects of P450 reactions
vary with particular systems, and further investigations are in order.
Non-ionic detergents have been utilized widely in P450 purification
work; these compounds are now shown to be substrates for P450s. These
oxidations are not only of fundamental interest in expanding the
repertoire of P450 substrates but have significance in light of human
exposure to these compounds.
