    Notes: Many species within the order Actinomycetales contain one or more soluble cytochrome P450 monooxygenases, often substrate-inducible and responsible for a variety of xenobiotic transformations. The individual cytochromes exhibit a relatively broad substrate specificity, and some strains have the capacity to synthesize large amounts of the protein(s) to compensate for low catalytic turnover with some substrates. All three of the Streptomyces cytochromes sequenced to date are exclusive members of one P450 family, CYP105. In several instances, monooxygenase activity arises from induction of a P450 and associated ferredoxin, or of a P450 only, suggesting that some essential electron donor proteins (reductase and ferredoxin) are not coordinately regulated with the cytochrome. The overall properties of these systems suggest an adaptive strategy whose twofold purpose is to maintain a competitive advantage via the production of secondary metabolites, and, whenever possible, to utilize unusual growth substrates by introducing metabolites from these reactions into the more substrate-specific primary metabolic pathways.
