5 Preface The second NATO Advanced Study Institute on molecular aspects of drug metabolizing enzymes, entitled Molecular Aspects of Oxidative Drug Metabolizing Enzymes: Their Significance in Environmental Toxicology, Chemical Carcinogenesis and Health was held in Ku~adasl, Aydm-Turkey, June 20-July 2, Like the first NATO Institute, Molecular Aspects of Monooxygenases and Bioactivation of Toxic Compounds, held in ~e~me, Turkey, August 27-September 7, 1989, the present workshop provided background and current concepts necessary fur the understanding of the microsomal xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes responsible for the detoxification and activation of endogenous compounds that fmd their way into the body. While the first workshop focused on endogenous substrates of the drug metabolizing enzymes and external toxicants such as benzene and estrogenic pesticides, the second workshop extended this theme to xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes in aquatic species, as well as to coverage of genotoxicity and chemical carcinogenicity. Progress in the study of xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes in the four years since the last NATO Institute on the topic has been rapid. As a result the lecturers spent time updating the participants on the latest developments and concepts. The rapid expansion of molecular biology into the fields of study of the xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes has given insight into the regulation of these enzymes. The development of heterologous expression systems has provided a basis whereby functions of the enzyme systems can be probed and its impact studied in the living cell. The growing recognition of the serious consequences of environmental pollution has spawned a number of studies on the impact of environmental contaminants on aquatic species, as well as the role of xenobiotic enzymes in chemical carcinogenesis. This book comprises the proceedings of the meeting. The chapters express the material covered by the lecturers, and contain sufficient background information for the beginning student. At the same timet. the material presented is upto-date, and we believe it will provide the latest information and citation to be of benefit to person working in these areas. E. Anne J. B.
