## Abstract A human lymphoblastoid cell line stably expressing a human cytochrome P4501A2 cDNA was developed. This recombinant cell line displayed P4501A2 protein and estradiol2βhydroxylase activity, neither of which was detected in the parental cell line. The recombinant cell line was also approxi
7,12-Dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA), a potent carcinogen, requires metabolic activation by cytochrome P450s (P450s) t o electrophilic metabolites that result in DNA modification, mutagenicity, and carcinogenicity. In this study, we used eight human forms, four rodent forms, and one rabbit form of
