TABLE 2.

Kinetic parameters for the rCYP3A4- and rCYP3A5-catalyzed metabolism of MDZ, TST, terfenadine, and vincristine

Data are presented as the mean ± S.D. (n = 3 determinations), except for the CYP3A5/CYP3A4 Vmax/Km (S50) ratio.

a

Presented as pmol/min/pmol P450, except for the formation of vincristine M1 metabolite. No attempt was made to formally quantitate M1, so data are presented as arbitrary units (see Materials and Methods).

b

Hill coefficient.

c

Ratio of CYP3A5 Vmax/Km (S50) versus CYP3A4 Vmax/Km (S50).
