Melatonin Catabolism 1

The video tutorial explains the biosynthesis and metabolism of melatonin, highlighting the role of cytochrome P-450 enzymes in drug metabolism. It discusses the function of sulfotransferase and glucuronyl transferase enzymes in increasing molecule polarity for excretion. The tutorial explores melatonin degradation pathways, focusing on the mechanism of sulfotransferase action and its importance in terminating melatonin's effects, such as sleep induction.
