Identification and characterization of flavin-containing monooxygenase isoform 2 (FMO2) in Rhesus monkey and examination of a human FMO2 polymorphism

Creator:

Yueh, Mei-Fei

Abstract:

Flavin-containing monooxygenase (FMO, EC1.14.13.8) comprises a family of xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes that catalyze the oxygenation of a wide variety of xenobiotics, most commonly nitrogen and sulfur. Mammals express five different FMOs in a species- and tissue- specific manner. FMO2, is expressed predominantly in lung and differs from other FMOs in that...
