Entry term(s) CYP3A
citocromo P450 CYP3A
Scope note: Subtipo de citocromo P-450 con especificidad para una amplia variedad de compuestos lipofílicos que incluyen ESTEROIDES, ÁCIDOS GRASOS y XENOBIÓTICOS. Esta enzima es importante desde el punto de vista clínico debido a su capacidad para metabolizar diversos fármacos importantes en la práctica clínica, como la CICLOSPORINA, el VERAPAMILO y el MIDAZOLAM. También cataliza la N-desmetilación de la ERITROMICINA.

Scope note: A cytochrome P-450 suptype that has specificity for a broad variety of lipophilic compounds, including STEROIDS; FATTY ACIDS; and XENOBIOTICS. This enzyme has clinical significance due to its ability to metabolize a diverse array of clinically important drugs such as CYCLOSPORINE; VERAPAMIL; and MIDAZOLAM. This enzyme also catalyzes the N-demethylation of ERYTHROMYCIN.
