Major structural fe<strong>at</strong>ures th<strong>at</strong><br />
determine specificity of P450 enzymes<br />
• Length <strong>and</strong> positioning of α−helices <strong>and</strong> βsheets<br />
determines size <strong>and</strong> shape of binding<br />
pocket<br />
• Identity of active site residues determines<br />
binding orient<strong>at</strong>ion of substr<strong>at</strong>es
