All cytochrome P450 genes that could be assembled from EST data,

mRNA sequences in the nr section of Genbank, and WGS (whole genome

shotgun sequences) at NCBI, were assembled and compared to the human

P450 collection.

59 complete genes were assembled, this number includes three pseudogenes.

6 partial genes are lacking small regions, and there are several other small

pieces and a few shorter pseudogenes.

There are a minimum of 62 CYP genes in the cow.
