Background of CYP2D6
As an active participant in the metabolism of more than 25% of the drugs that we take as humans, it's almost no surprise that it is capable of metabolising imidacloprid as well. It is surprising to note however, that imidacloprid is metabolized through the reduction of the nitro goup on the imidazolidine moiety [1], lowering the toxic effects of imidacloprid. In conjunction with CYP6CM1vQ and CYP6G1, it can minimize the toxicity of imidacloprid prior to spontaneous cleavage between the imidazolidine and nicotic moieties[1].
By reducing the nitro moiety, it minimizes toxic effects stemming from the presence of the imidazolidine moiety post cleavage.
This coding sequence was synthesized and is codon optimized for E. coli. It was originally identified in Homo sapiens, Human Beings [2]. This part is also used in BBa_K1813013.
