The cytochrome P450 constitute a superfamily of heme-containing enzymes that occur in nearly all living organisms, from bacteria to mammals, These monooxygenases, which in animals are embedded in the endoplasmic reticulum membrane, catalyze reactions of the sort
                  RH + O2 + 2 H+ + 2eāˆ’ → ROH + H2
The electrons (eāˆ’) are supplied by NADPH, which passes them to cytochrome P450’s heme prosthetic group via the intermediacy of the enzyme NADPH P450 reductase. Here RH represents a wide variety of usually lipophilic compounds for which the different cytochromes P450 are specific. They include
a. polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons 
b. polycyclic biphenyls
c. frequently carcinogenic compounds that are present in tobacco smoke, broiled meats, and other pyrolysis products
d. which were widely used in electrical insulators and as plasticizers and are also carcinogenic.

The chemical benzo(a)pyrene, found in cigarette smoke as well as in coal tar, undergoes metabolic activation in the lungs to form a potent mutagen that mainly, causes conversion of guanine (G) to thymine (T) bases, a transversion mutation, When applied to cultured bronchial epithelial cells, activated benzo(a)pyrene induces many mutations, including inactivating mutations of the p53 gene, at codon number______

The MDM2 protein in its active form can form a complex with p53, inhibiting the transcription factor and causing p53 ubiquitinylation and subsequent proteasomal degradation, ATM phosphorylates MDM2 to inactivate it, causing increased stabilization of p53, but there is one another gene or key regulator which controls the level of MDM2;
