The AHR / ARNT complex binds to xenobiotic response elements to activate transcription of genes, most of which are involved primarily in xenobiotic metabolism.

33.
Firstly, in contrast to the amazing substrate range of many of the enzymes involved in xenobiotic metabolism, it shows a narrow substrate specificity.
34.
Some " Penicillium " species have shown potential for use in bioremediation because of their ability to break down a variety of xenobiotic compounds.
35.
GGT plays a key role in the gamma-glutamyl cycle, a pathway for the synthesis and degradation of glutathione and drug and xenobiotic detoxification.
36.
For years, glycerol has been used in cryobiology as a cryoprotectant for blood cells and bull sperm, allowing storage at transplantable human and xenobiotic organs.
37.
The enzymes of xenobiotic metabolism, particularly the glutathione S-transferases are also important in agriculture, since they may produce resistance to pesticides and herbicides.
38.
Benefits may include antibiotic resistance, xenobiotic tolerance or the ability to use new metabolites . [ 6 ] Such beneficial plasmids may be considered bacterial endosymbionts.
39.
The exact compounds an organism is exposed to will be largely unpredictable, and may differ widely over time; these are major characteristics of xenobiotic toxic stress.
40.
Induction of enzymes involved in xenobiotic metabolism occurs through binding of the ligand-bound AhR to xenobiotic responsive elements in the promoters of genes for these enzymes.
