Cytochrome P450, family 6, also known as CYP6, is a cytochrome P450family found in Insectgenome. CYP6 and CYP9, another insect CYP family, belong to the same clan as mammalian CYP3 and CYP5 families.[1]
The first two CYP6 subfamilies represented by CYP6A1 and CYP6B1 shared only 32.7% identity,[2] less than the typical CYP subfamilies, which share at least 40% amino acid identity.[3]
