Stable expression of eukaryotic p450 cDNA in mammalian cell lines

The P450 profile of HepG2 cells was studied using specific enzyme assays and well characterised monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies. These cells were shown to endogenously express cytochrome P450 1A1, P450 1A2 and P450 3A5 when the cells were treated with benz(a)anthracene or rifampicin respectivel...
