The site has been in continuous operation since February 1995. Currently, naming information for 11,512 <it>CYPs </it>are available on the web pages. The P450 sequences are manually curated by David Nelson, and the nomenclature system conforms to an evolutionary scheme such that members of <it>CYP </it>families and subfamilies share common ancestors.
