TABLE 1

Formation of C-7 and loss of substrate in incubations of [14C]laromustine (25 and 100 μM) with various recombinant human P450 enzymes (25 pmol/incubation) expressed in Escherichia coli (bactosomes)

Pmol values are the mean of duplicate determinations and are rounded to three significant figures. Percent values are rounded to one decimal place. From Nassar et al. (2009).
