title: Localization of the gene encoding steroid hydroxylase cytochrome P-450 from Rhizopus nigricans inside a HindIII fragment of genomic DNA.
abstract: The gene encoding steroid inducible cytochrome P450 of Rhizopus nigricans ATCC 6227b has been found inside a HindIII fragment of the genomic DNA by hybridization with a partial length cDNA probe. The latter was isolated by immunoscreening a cDNA library prepared in the lambda gt11 expression system and identified on the basis of inducibility and sequence analysis. The nucleotide sequence of the cDNA probe revealed a coding sequence for the heme binding segment characteristic of the P450 gene family.
