Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
what does cytochrone P450 enzyme group do in the process of detoxification in the liver
A
convert toxinss into less harmful chemicals by oxidation, reduction and hydrolysis reactsion
B
attached the converted group to another substance vai a conjugation reaction
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Insect cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (P450s) are well known to be involved in metabolic detoxification of xenobiotics, such as phytochemicals, insecticides and environmental pollutants. Enhanced metabolic detoxification is closely associated with the constitutive overexpression and induction of P450s.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cytochromes P450 (CYPs) are enzymes that oxidize substances using iron and are able to metabolize a large variety of xenobiotic substances. CYP enzymes are linked to a wide array of reactions including and O-dealkylation, S-oxidation, epoxidation, and hydroxylation.
