Abstract:
A isolated cytochrome P450 protein, at least a portion of which is encoded by a DNA molecule selected from the following:(a) DNA molecules containing the coding sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:1 beginning at nucleotide 1 and ending at nucleotide 1242,(b) DNA molecules containing the coding sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:3 beginning at nucleotide 81 and ending at nucleotide 1601,(c) DNA molecules comprising a Cyp7b protein coding sequence and which are capable of hybridizing with the DNA molecule defined in (a) or (b) under standard hybridization conditions defined as 2.times.SSC at 65.degree. C.(d) Cytochrome P450-encoding DNA molecules capable of hybridizing with the DNA molecule defined in (a), (b) or (c) under reduced stringency conditions defined as 6.times.SSC at 65.degree. C.
