CYP3A4 → CYP3A5 mutants are shown in bold.

  • 2-a  Mean of inactivation constants of wild type and various CYP3A4 mutants by methanol (control) was 0.03 min−1.

  • 2-b  Inactivation of wild type CYP3A4 by mifepristone was determined using solubilized membrane preparation as well as purified protein with no significant difference in theki.

  • 2-c  Purified proteins.
