MCOD, ECOD, MROD, and EROD activities were determined fluorometrically using 16 pmol of CYP76B1 per 2-mL assay. Demethylation of CTUDM and IPUDM was tested using 14C-labeled substrates with approximately 3 pmol of CYP76B1 in the 200-μL assays. Conversion was estimated from the sum of the two polar metabolites detected after TLC analysis. Data are means ± sd of two to four determinations.
n.d., Not detected.
