1 Of the family of P-450 cytochromes occurring in rabbit liver microsomes, only isozyme 3a (P-450ALC) is induced by alcohol administration and is effective in catalyzing the reaction: ethanol +02+NADPH+H+----acetaldehyde +2H2O+NADP+. Alcohols cytochrome P450 family 2 subfamily B member 6 Homo sapiens
