Distribution of cytochrome P450 genes constituting Mycobacterium CYPome in 3S metagenome. Thirty-three CYPs belonging to 24 CYP families were detected as members of Mycobacterium CYPome. Majority (79%) of the detected CYPs were orphan CYPs that have no known assigned biological functions. The detected CYPs with biological functions are responsible for sterol biodegradation (CYP51, CYP124, CYP142), and biosynthesis of secondary metabolites (CYP128, CYP139, CYP140A7), some of which played prominent roles in virulence
