  • a CYPOR content of membranes, based on immunoblot analysis.

  • b Percentage in electron transfer measured as NADPH cytochrome c reduction (Vmax) relative to the expected, calculated reduction activity based on the CYPOR protein content (immunodetection) using kcat of 3200 min−1 (Parikh et al., 1997). Numbers in parentheses indicate the same percentage, calculated by using the Vmax values, reported by Huang et al. (2005), with use of N-terminal (27 amino acids)-deleted CYPOR expression relatively to their CYPOR_WT form.

  • c CYPOR/CYP3A ratio (average and interval) (Venkatakrishnan et al., 2000), assuming a ∼30% CYP3A content of human liver (Guengerich, 2005).
