a

Figure 2 depicts reaction mechanism used to determine kinetic parameters. Nonsymmetrical 95% confidence intervals for parameters are shown in parentheses.

b

Parameters for uninhibited 4-nitrophenol oxidation by recombinant CYP2E1 were Ks 290 μM, Kss 1700 μM and kcat1 19 nmol/min/nmol CYP2E1.

c

Units are nmol/min/nmol CYP2E1.
