Nitrile hydratases (NHase) catalyze the hydration of nitriles to the corresponding amides. We report on the heterologous expression of various nitrile hydratases. Some of these enzymes have been investigated by others and us before, but sixteen target proteins represent novel

Tissue-specific induction of cytochrome P-450s (CYP) followed by increased in situ bioactivation may contribute to chemical-induced site-specific toxicity. In rats, methacrylonitrile (MAN) is metabolized by cytochrome P-450 2E1 (CYP2E1) to acetone, which is eliminated along with parent MAN in breath.
The effect of methacrylonitrile (MeAN) a cyanogen compound, on various haematological parameters was studied. Administration of MeAN at 100 mg/kg per body weight/day for 7 days resulted in a significant decrease in the red cell count and in the level

Methacrylonitrile is an unsaturated aliphatic nitrile. It is widely used in the preparation of homopolymers and copolymers, elastomers, and plastics and as a chemical intermediate in the preparation of acids, amides, amines, esters, and other nitriles. Methacrylonitrile is also used
