Metabolism of drugs and xenobiotics
Functional significance:
●
inactivation and facilitated elimination of drugs and
xenobiotics
●
activation of prodrugs
●
formation of active metabolites with similar or novel activity
●
detoxification of toxic xenobiotics
●
toxification of non-toxic xenobiotics
Enzyme specificity in drug metabolism
●
key problem: a limited number of enzymes must cope with an
unlimited number of substrates
●
many drug-metabolizing enzymes have fairly broad
specificities
●
enzyme specificities overlap—many drugs give rise to
multiple metabolites
Example: metabolism of phenobarbital
