Conversion of many compounds which are not electrophilically reactive as such to metabolites responsible for cytotoxic, mutagenic and/or carcinogenic effects is catalyzed by mammalian enzymes. Many reactive agents, whether metabolites or parent compounds, are also subject to inactivation by mammalian enzymes.
