FMO9P
Description
The FMO9P (flavin containing dimethylaniline monoxygenase 9, pseudogene) is a pseudo gene located on chromosome 1.
FMO9P is a gene that encodes a protein belonging to the flavin-containing monooxygenase (FMO) family. These enzymes play a crucial role in the metabolism of a wide range of compounds, including drugs, xenobiotics, and neurotransmitters. FMO9P specifically catalyzes the oxidation of nitrogen- and sulfur-containing compounds, leading to their detoxification and elimination from the body. The exact role of FMO9P in human physiology is still being studied, but its involvement in drug metabolism suggests its potential impact on drug efficacy and toxicity.
FMO9P, a member of the flavin-containing monooxygenase (FMO) family, is a protein that plays a critical role in the metabolism of various endogenous and exogenous compounds, including drugs, xenobiotics, and neurotransmitters. It catalyzes the oxidation of nitrogen- and sulfur-containing compounds, ultimately contributing to their detoxification and elimination from the body. The specific role of FMO9P in human physiology is still under investigation, but its involvement in drug metabolism suggests its potential impact on drug efficacy and toxicity.
FMO9P is also known as -.
