CYP18 family

Cytochrome P450, family 18, also known as CYP18, is an animal cytochrome P450 family found in Insect genome,[1] which are involved in insecticide resistance.[2] The first gene identified in this family is the CYP18A1 from the Drosophila melanogaster, action as dimethylnitrosamine demethylase.[3]
