Abstract: The invention provides monoclonal antibodies and other binding agents to human cytochrome P450 2C19 having advantageous properties, including capacity substantially to inhibit enzyme activity of human cytochrome P450 2C19 and lack of specific binding to other human cytochrome P450s. The binding agents of the invention are useful inter alia in methods for screening drugs for metabolism by cytochrome P450 2C19, and in methods of measuring P450 2C19 levels in individuals relative to P450 2C19 levels in a control population.

Abstract: The invention provides monoclonal antibodies and other binding agents to human cytochrome P450 2C8, 2C9, 2C18, and 2C19 having advantageous properties, including capacity substantially to inhibit enzyme activity of the various human cytochrome P450 2C family members and lack of specific binding to other human cytochromes P450. The binding agents of the invention are useful inter alia in methods for screening drugs for metabolism by cytochrome P450 2C family members, and in methods of screening individuals for a poor metabolizing individual human P450 2C family phenotypes.
