Protein Details
"The cytochrome 34 2A13 is involved in nicotine metabolism and in the activation of the pro-carcinogenic agents NNK and 35 NNN, by means of α-hydroxylation reactions."
Ligand Details
Nitrosamines are produced by the reaction of nitrites and secondary amines. Nitrites are used as food preservatives, e.g. cured meats. Secondary amines arise by the degradation of proteins (food). Nitrite and nitrosamine intake are associated with risk of gastric cancer and oesophageal cancer.
