The Second Edition reviews the impressive progress that has been made in the last ten years in cytochrome P450 research. Chapters emphasize structure, mechanism, biochemistry, and regulation. This edition offers expanded coverage of P450 crystal structures, site-specific mutagenesis as a probe of structure and function. New chapters explore the hormonal regulation of P450 enzymes, the cytochrome P450-catalyzed oxidation of eicosanoids, human P450 enzymes, and thiolate-ligated hemoproteins other than P450.
Cytochrome P450: Structure, Mechanism, and Biochemistry, third edition is a revision of a review that summarizes the current state of research in the field of drug metabolism. The emphasis is on structure, mechanism, biochemistry, and regulation. Coverage is interdisciplinary, ranging from bioinorganic chemistry of cytochrome P450 to its relevance in human medicine. Each chapter provides an in-depth review of a given topic, but concentrates on advances of the last 10 years.
The remarkable expansion of information leading to a deeper understanding of enzymes on the molecular level necessitated the development of this volume which not only introduces new topics to The Enzymes series but presents new information on some covered in Volume I and II of this edition.
Provides short biographies of more than 175 notable Hispanic American professionals in science, mathematics, medicine, and related fields.

Helmut Sigel, Astrid Sigel and Roland K.O. Sigel, in close cooperation with John Wiley & Sons launch a new Series “Metal Ions in Life Sciences”. There exists a whole range of books on Cytochromes P450, but none with the focus of this volume. This new volume in the Series concentrates on current hot topics in the area and tries to work out the underlying common developments. As a result the reader will find a systematic account of new results in this exciting research area. The table of contents gives an idea on the wide span of chapters, starting with overviews and the presentation of specific systems, and ending with chapters on carbon-carbon bond cleavage by P450 sytems, drug metabolism as catalyzed by P450 systems, decomposition of xenobiotics by P450 enzymes and design and engineering of new P450 systems.
