Cyp6g1 or DDT-R is an insecticide resistance gene for resistance to DDT in Drosophila melanogaster.[1] It belongs to the cytochrome P450 family and is located in chromosome 2R.[2] Following up their earlier work, Daborn et al. 2002 find the DDT-R gene induces overtranscription of Cyp6g1, of which there are 4 duplicates.[3] They also find several substrates of Cyp6g1, namely DDT, lufenuron, and nitenpyram.
