Biotransformation, Using Recombinant CYP450-Expressing Baker’s Yeast Cells, Identifies a Novel CYP2D6.10(A122V) Variant Which Is a Superior Metabolizer of Codeine to Morphine Than the Wild-Type Enzyme

[Image: see text] CYP2D6, a cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzyme, metabolizes codeine to morphine. Within the human body, 0–15% of codeine undergoes O-demethylation by CYP2D6 to form morphine, a far stronger analgesic than codeine. Genetic polymorphisms in wild-type CYP2D6 (CYP2D6-wt) are known to cause poo...
