Biocatalytic Synthesis of Dihydroxynaphthoic Acids by Cytochrome P450 CYP199A2

CYP199A2, a bacterial P450 monooxygenase from Rhodopseudomonas palustris, was found to exhibit oxidation activity towards three hydroxynaphthoic acids. Whole cells of the recombinant Escherichia coli strain expressing CYP199A2 efficiently catalyzed the regioselective oxidation of 1-, 3-, and 6-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acids to produce 1,7-, 3,7-, and 6,7-dihydroxynaphthoic acid respectively. These results suggest that CYP199A2 might be a useful oxidation biocatalyst for the synthesis of dihydroxynaphthoic acids.     

Sunflower cDNA Encoding New Cytochrome P450

The primary structure of the cDNA clone SF28 was determined in sunflower (Helianthus annuusL.) flowers. The clone comprises a 874-bp insert corresponding to 227 amino acid residues of the C-terminal part of the cytochrome P450 gene. The sunflower cytochrome P450 was considerably different from the already known plant and animal cytochromes P450.     

Productive and non-productive complexes in cytochrome P450-containing systems

The equilibrium dissociation constants K_D, the complex association / dissociation rate constants (k _on /k _off) and lifetimes of the complexes of redox partners were measured for three cytochrome P450-containing monooxygenase systems (P450cam, P450scc, and P450 2B4) under hydroxylation conditions. The Q parameter representing the ratio of protein-protein complex lifetime (τ _lT ) to time required for a single hydroxylation cycle (τ_turnover) was introduced for estimation of productivity of complexes formed within the systems studied. The Q parameter was insignificantly changed upon transition from the oxidation to hydroxylation conditions. Lifetimes (τ _lT ) for the binary complexes formed within the P450cam and the P450scc systems obligatory requiring an intermediate electron transfer protein between the reductase and cytochrome P450 could not realize hydroxylation reactions for substrates with known τ_turnover and so they were non-productive while the binary complexes formed within the P450 2B4 system, not requiring such intermediate electron-transfer protein, appeared to be productive. Formation of ternary complexes was demonstrated under hydroxylation conditions in all three systems. Analysis of Q values led to the conclusion that the ternary complexes formed within the P450cam and the P450scc systems were productive. In the case of the P450 2B4 system, more than half (about 60%) ternary complexes were also found to be productive.     

The optical biosensor study of the redox partner interaction with the cytochrome P450 2B4-containing monooxygenase system under hydroxylation conditions

The interactions between cytochrome P450 2B4 (d-2B4), NADPH:cytochrome P450 reductase and cytochrome b5 have been investigated in the monomeric reconstituted P450 2B4-containing monooxygenase system in the presence of a substrate (7-pentoxyresorufin) and an electron donor, NADPH. Each partner was immobilized via its amino groups on the carboxymethyldextran biochip surface of the optical biosensor IAsys+. Such mode immobilization was not accompanied by any loss of activities of the immobilized proteins. The formation of binary d-Fp/d-2B4 complexes was registered. The association/dissociation rate constants (k_on/k_off) were (0.013 ± 0.005) × 10⁶ M^?1 s^?1/0.05 ± 0.02 s^?1, and dissociation constant (K_D) was (0.26 ± 0.13) × 10^?6 M. Comparison of k_on, k_off and K_D values for d-Fp/d-2B4 complexes formed under hydroxylation (O-dealkylation) with corresponding constants obtained for the oxidized proteins of (0.10 ± 0.03) × 10⁶ M^?1 s^?1/(0.14 ± 0.06) s^?1, and (0.71 ± 0.37) × 10^?6 M, respectively shows that the decrease in k_on and an insignificant decrease in K_D are associated with the increase of complex lifetime during transition from the oxidized to hydroxylation conditions. Complex formation between d-Fp and d-b5 was not registered in both hydroxylation conditions and in the case of oxidized forms of these proteins. In both cases formation of the ternary d-Fp/d-2B4/d-b5 complexes occurred.     

微生物细胞色素P450与胆固醇的生物代谢

Directed Evolution of the Actinomycete Cytochrome P450 MoxA (CYP105) for Enhanced Activity

Actinomycete cytochrome P450 from Nonomuraea recticatena NBRC 14525 (P450moxA) catalyzes the hydroxylation of a broad range of substrates, including fatty acids, steroids, and various aromatic compounds. Hence, the enzyme is potentially useful in medicinal applications, but the activity is insufficient for practical use. Here we applied directed evolution to enhance the activity. A random mutagenesis library was screened using 7-ethoxycoumarin as a substrate to retrieve 17 variants showing >2-fold activities. Twenty-five amino acid substitutions were found in the variants, of which five mutations were identified to have the largest effects (Q87W, T115A, H132L, R191W, and G294D). These mutations additively increased the activity; the quintet mutant had 20-times the activity of the wildtype. These five single mutations also increased in activity toward structurally distinct substrates (diclofenac and naringenin). Based on the three-dimensional structure of the enzyme, we discerned that mutations in the substrate recognition site improved the activity, which was substrate dependent; mutations apart from the active site improved the activity as well as the substrates did.     

Cytochrome P450 mediates dopamine formation in the brain in vivo

The cytochrome P450-mediated synthesis of dopamine from tyramine has been shown in vitro. The aim of the present study was to demonstrate the ability of rat cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2D to synthesize dopamine from tyramine in the brain in vivo. We employed two experimental models using reserpinized rats with a blockade of the classical pathway of dopamine synthesis from tyrosine. Model A estimated dopamine production from endogenous tyramine in brain structures in vivo (ex vivo measurement of a tissue dopamine level), while Model B measured extracellular dopamine produced from exogenous tyramine (an in vivo microdialysis). In Model A, quinine (a CYP2D inhibitor) given intraperitoneally caused a significant decrease in dopamine level in the striatum and nucleus accumbens and tended to fall in the substantia nigra and frontal cortex. In Model B, an increase in extracellular dopamine level was observed after tyramine given intrastructurally (the striatum). After joint administration of tyramine and quinine, the amount of the dopamine formed was significantly lower compared to the group receiving tyramine only. The results of the two complementary experimental models indicate that the hydroxylation of tyramine to dopamine may take place in rat brain in vivo, and that CYP2D catalyzes this reaction.
