The Ubiquitous Roles of Cytochrome P450 Proteins
Ebook (PDF Format)
Looking across the tree of life, it is amazing to find cytochrome P450 proteins represented in all life forms. Volume 3, devoted solely to the vital and still expanding research area concerning P450s, offers in 17 stimulating chapters written by 36 internationally recognized experts an authoritative and timely account of this fascinating subject. The Ubiquitous Roles of Cytochrome P450 Proteins highlights, supported by nearly 2700 references, more than 20 tables and 190 illustrations, the function of these versatile catalysts which act as monooxygenases and insert an oxygen atom from dioxygen into a substrate molecule oxidizing it. P450s are…

Looking across the tree of life, it is amazing to find cytochrome P450 proteins represented in all life forms. Volume 3, devoted solely to the vital and still expanding research area concerning P450s, offers in 17 stimulating chapters written by 36 internationally recognized experts an authoritative and timely account of this fascinating subject. The Ubiquitous Roles of Cytochrome P450 Proteins highlights, supported by nearly 2700 references, more than 20 tables and 190 illustrations, the function of these versatile catalysts which act as monooxygenases and insert an oxygen atom from dioxygen into a substrate molecule oxidizing it. P450s are important in the biosynthesis of hormones and signaling molecules as well as in xenobiotic metabolism and detoxification ranging from pharmaceuticals in humans to toxic substances in insects and plants. Mechanistic aspects and the design and engineering of P450 systems for biotechnological applications are also covered. MILS-3 is essential for scientists working in the wide range from bioinorganic chemistry all the way through to medicine including the clinic.

Über den Autor
Astrid Sigel has studied languages and was an editor of the Metal Ions in Biological Systems series (until Volume 44) and also of the Handbooks on Toxicity of Inorganic Compounds (1988), on Metals in Clinical and Analytical Chemistry (1994; both with H.G. Seiler), and on Metalloproteins (2001; with Ivano Bertini) (Dekker, New York). Helmut Sigel is Emeritus Professor (2003) of Inorganic Chemistry at the University of Basel, Switzerland, and a previous editor of the MIBS series until Volume 44. He serves on various editorial and advisory boards, published over 300 articles on metal ion complexes of nucleotides, coenzymes, and other ligands of biological relevance, and lectured worldwide. He was named Protagonist in Chemistry (2002) by ICA (issue 339); among further honors are the P. Ray Award (Indian Chemical Society, of which he is also an Honorary Fellow), the Werner Award (Swiss Chemical Society), a Doctor of Science honoris causa degree (Kalyani University, India), appointments as Visiting Professor (e.g., Austria, China, UK) and Endowed Lectureships. Roland K.O. Sigel is Assistant Professor (2003) of Inorganic Chemistry at the University of Zürich, Switzerland, endowed with a Förderungsprofessur of the Swiss National Science Foundation. He received his doctoral degree summa cum laude (1999) from the University of Dortmund, Germany, working with Bernhard Lippert; thereafter he spent nearly three years at Columbia University, New York, USA, in the group of Anna Marie Pyle (now Yale University); during the six years abroad he received several fellowships from various sources. His research focuses on the structural and catalytic role of metal ions in ribozymes, especially group II introns, and on related topics. He was also an editor of Volumes 43 and 44 of the MIBS series.
