Human Cytochromes P450 Associated with the Phase 1 Metabolism of Drugs and other Xenobiotics: A Compilation of Substrates and Inhibitors of the CYP1, CYP2 and CYP3 Families
Abstract
This review represents a compilation of typical substrates and inhibitors for human cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes that are involved in drug metabolism, specifically those from the CYP1, CYP2 and CYP3 families. Relatively recent literature on substrates and inhibitors has been collected and the relevant K(m) and K(i) values, respectively, are tabulated. Furthermore, physicochemical properties in the form of lipophilicity (log P and log D(7.4) values) and acidity/basicity (pK(a) values) are also tabulated for a significant number of substrates, together with some information on inhibitors, although only key inhibitors have been selected as the main focus is on substrates. The collated information indicates that there are certain commonalities between substrates for the same enzyme, especially with respect to their positions of metabolism and likely interactions with the relevant enzyme active site regions. The compilation therefore assists in establishing substrate structure-activity relationships (SSARs) within human drug-metabolizing P450s.

[123I]5-IA is metabolized in the liver by enzymes in the cytochrome P450 family, such as CYP2A6, CYP2B6, and CYP2D6.
“Consistently, we expect that [123I]5-IA is metabolized in the liver by enzymes in the cytochrome P450 family, such as CYP2A6, which acts on nicotine, and CYP2B6 and CYP2D6, which catalyze the dealkylation of aromatic ethers56, 57.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
