- Abstract
The article offers information on a study which investigates the contribution of CYP3A enzymes to xenobiotic metabolism in small ruminants such as goats. The expressions of CYP3A mRNA were investigated in goat and rat gastrointestinal tracts using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). It found that the expression of CYP3A-like mRNAs was comparatively higher in the liver than in the gastrointestinal tract of goats.
