The active site topology, substrate specificity, and biological roles of the human cytochrome P450 CYP2J2, which is mainly expressed in the cardiovascular system, are poorly known even though recent data suggest that it could be a novel biomarker and potential target for therapy of human cancer. This paper reports a first series of high-affinity, selective CYP2J2 inhibitors that are related to terfenadine, with K(i) values as low as 160nM, that should be useful tools to determine the biological roles of CYP2J2. 相似文献

Recent trends in new drug discovery of anticancer drugs have made oncologists more aware of the fact that the new drug discovery must target the developing mechanism of tumorigenesis to improve the therapeutic efficacy of antineoplastic drugs. The drugs designed are expected to have high affinity towards the novel targets selectively. Current research highlights overexpression of CYP450s, particularly cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1), in tumour cells, representing a novel target for anticancer therapy. However, the CYP1 family is identified as posing significant problems in selectivity of anticancer molecules towards CYP1A1. Three members have been identified in the human CYP1 family: CYP1A1, CYP1A2 and CYP1B1. Although sequences of the three isoform have high sequence identity, they have distinct substrate specificities. The understanding of macromolecular features that govern substrate specificity is required to understand the interplay between the protein function and dynamics, design novel antitumour compounds that could be specifically metabolized by only CYP1A1 to mediate their antitumour activity and elucidate the reasons for differences in substrate specificity profile among the three proteins. In the present study, we employed a combination of computational methodologies: molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations. We utilized eight substrates for elucidating the difference in substrate specificity of the three isoforms. Lastly, we conclude that the substrate specificity of a particular substrate depends upon the type of the active site residues, the dynamic motions in the protein structure upon ligand binding and the physico‐chemical characteristics of a particular ligand.

A molecular model of a mammalian membrane-bound cytochrome P450, rat P450 2B1, was constructed in order to elucidate its mode of attachment to the endoplasmic reticulum and the structural basis of substrate specificity. The model was primarily derived from the structure of P450BM-3, which as a class II P450 is the most functionally similar P450 of known structure. However, model development was also guided by the conserved core regions of P450cam and P450terp. To optimally align the P450 2B1 and P450BM-3 sequences, multiple alignment was performed using sequences of five P450s in the II family, followed by minor adjustments on the basis of secondary structure predictions. The resulting P450 2B1 homology model structure was refined by molecular dynamics heating, equilibration, simulation, and energy minimization. The model suggests that the F–G loop serves as both a hydrophobic membrane anchor and entrance channel for hydrophobic substrates from the membrane to the P450 active site. To assess the mode of substrate binding, benzphetamine, testosterone, and benzo[a]pyrene were docked into the active site. The hydrophobic substrate-binding pocket is consistent with the preferences of this P450 toward hydrophobic substrates, while the presence of an acidic Glu-105 in this pocket is consistent with the preference of this P450 for the cationic substrate benzphetamine. This model is thus consistent with several known experimental properties of this P450, such as membrane attachment and substrate selectivity. 相似文献

The effect of reciprocal active site mutations in human cytochromes P450 1A1 and 1A2 on alkoxyresorufin metabolism 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Five reciprocal active site mutants of P450 1A1 and 1A2 and an additional mutant, Val/Leu-382 --> Ala, were constructed, expressed in Escherichia coli, and purified by Ni-NTA affinity chromatography. In nearly every case, the residue replacement led to loss of 7-methoxy- and 7-ethoxyresorufin O-dealkylase activity compared to the wild-type enzymes, except for the P450 1A1 S122T mutation which increased both activities. Mutations at position 382 in both P450 1A1 and 1A2 shifted substrate specificity from one enzyme to another, confirming the importance of this residue. Changes in activity of P450 1A enzymes upon amino acid replacement were, in general, consistent with molecular dynamics analyses of substrate motion in the active site of homology models. 相似文献

The active site of cytochromes P450 is situated deep inside the protein next to the heme cofactor. Consequently, enzyme specificity and kinetics can be influenced by how substrates pass through the protein to access the active site and how products egress from the active site. We previously analysed the channels between the active site and the protein surface in P450 crystal structures available in October 2003 [R.C. Wade, P.J. Winn, I. Schlichting, Sudarko, A survey of active site access channels in cytochromes P450, J. Inorg. Biochem. 98 (2004) 1175-1182]. Since then, 52 new P450 structures have been made available, including entries for ten isozymes for which structures were not previously available. We present an updated survey covering all P450 crystal structures available in March 2006. This survey shows channels not observed earlier in crystal structures, some of which were identified in previous molecular dynamics simulations. The crystal structures demonstrate how some of the channels can merge when the protein structure opens up resulting in a wide cleft to the active site, caused largely by movements of the F-G helix-loop-helix and the B-C loop. Significant differences were observed between the channels in the crystal structures of the mammalian and bacterial enzymes. The multiplicity of channels suggests possibilities for substrate channelling to and from the P450s. 相似文献

In the last 4 years, breakthroughs were made in the field of P450 2B (CYP2B) structure-function through determination of one ligand-free and two inhibitor-bound X-ray crystal structures of CYP2B4, which revealed many of the structural features required for binding ligands of different size and shape. Large conformational changes of several plastic regions of CYP2B4 can dramatically reshape the active site of the enzyme to fit the size and shape of the bound ligand without perturbing the overall P450 fold. Solution biophysical studies using isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) have revealed the large difference in the thermodynamic parameters of CYP2B4 in binding inhibitors of different ring chemistry and side chains. Other studies have revealed that the effects of site-specific mutations on steady-state kinetic parameters and mechanism-based inactivation are often substrate dependent. These findings agree with the structural data that the enzymes adopt different conformations to bind various ligands. Thus, the substrate specificity of an individual enzyme is determined not only by active site residues but also non-active site residues that modulate conformational changes that are important for substrate access and rearrangement of the active site to accommodate the bound substrate. 相似文献

Cytochrome P450 1A2 metabolizes a number of important drugs, procarcinogens, and endogenous compounds. Several flavones, a
class of phytochemicals consumed in the human diet, have been shown to differentially inhibit human P450 1A2-mediated methoxyresorufin
demethylase. A molecular model of this P450 was constructed in order to elucidate the molecular basis of the P450-flavone
interaction. Flavone and its 3,5,7-trihydroxy and 3,5,7-trimethoxy derivatives were docked into the active site to assess
their mode of binding. The site is hydrophobic and includes several residues that hydrogen bond with substituents on the flavone
nucleus. The binding interactions of these flavones in the modeled active side are consistent with their relative inhibitory
potentials, namely 3,5,7-trihydroxylflavone > flavone >3,5,7-trimethoxylflavone, toward P450 1A2-mediated methoxyresorufin

P450 monooxygenases from microorganisms, similar to those of eukaryotic mitochondria, display a rather narrow substrate specificity. For native P450 BM-3, no other substrates than fatty acids or an indolyl-fatty acid derivative have been reported (Li, Q.S., Schwaneberg, U., Fischer, P., Schmid, R.D., 2000. Directed evolution of the fatty-acid hydroxylase P450BM-3 into an indole-hydroxylating catalyst. Chem. Eur. J. 6 (9), 1531-1536). Engineering the substrate specificity of Bacillus megaterium cytochrome P-450 BM3: hydroxylation of alkyl trimethylammonium compounds. Biochem. J. 327, 537-544). We thus were quite surprised to observe, in the course of our investigations on the rational evolution of this enzyme towards mutants, capable of hydroxylating shorter-chain fatty acids, that a triple mutant P450 BM-3 (Phe87Val, Leu188-Gln, Ala74Gly, BM-3 mutant) could efficiently hydroxylate indole, leading to the formation of indigo and indirubin (Li, Q.S., Schwaneberg, U., Fischer, P., Schmid, R.D., 2000. Directed evolution of the fatty-acid hydroxylase P450BM-3 into an indole-hydroxylating catalyst. Chem. Eur. J. 6 (9), 1531-1536). Indole is not oxidized by the wild-type enzyme; it lacks the carboxylate group by which the proper fatty acid substrates are supposed to be bound at the active site of the native enzyme, via hydrogen bonds to the charged amino acid residues Arg47 and Tyr51. Our attempts to predict the putative binding mode of indole to P450 BM-3 or the triple mutant by molecular dynamics simulations did not provide any useful clue. Encouraged by the unexpected activity of the triple mutant towards indole, we investigated in a preliminary, but systematic manner several alkanes, alicyclic, aromatic, and heterocyclic compounds, all of which are unaffected by the native enzyme, for their potential as substrates. We here report that this triple mutant indeed is capable to hydroxylate a respectable range of other substrates, all of which bear little or no resemblance to the fatty acid substrates of the native enzyme. 相似文献

Cytochromes P450 (CYPs) are a super family of heme-containing enzymes well-known for their monooxgenase reaction. There are 57 CYP isoenzymes found in human which exhibit specific physiological functions. Thirteen members of this super family are classified as "orphan" CYP because of their unknown enzymatic functions. CYP4V2 is found to be a potential drug target for Bietti crystalline corneoretinal dystrophy (BCD). However, three-dimensional structure, the active site topology and substrate binding modes of CYP4V2 remain unclear. In this study, the three-dimensional model of CYP4V2 was constructed using the homology modeling method. Four possible fatty acid substrates namely, caprylic, lauric, myrisitc and palmitic acids were optimized and evaluated for drug likeness using Lipinski's rule of five. Further, these substrates were docked into active sites of CYP4V2 and several key residues responsible for substrate binding were identified. These findings will be helpful for the structure-based drug design and detailed characterization of the biological roles of CYP4V2. 相似文献

Molecular modeling and identification of substrate binding site of orphan human cytochrome P450 4F22
Kumar S 《Bioinformation》2011,7(4):207-210
Cytochrome P450s are superfamily of heme proteins which generally monooxygenate hydrophobic compounds. The human cytochrome P450 4F22 (CYP4F22) was categorized into "orphan" CYPs because of its unknown function. CYP4F22 is a potential drug target for cancer therapy. However, three-dimensional structure, the active site topology and substrate specificity of CYP4F22 remain unclear. In this study, a three-dimensional model of human P450 4F22 was constructed by comparative modeling using Modeller 9v5. The resulting model was refined by energy minimization subjected to the quality assessment from both geometric and energetic aspects and was found to be of reasonable quality. Docking approach was employed to dock arachidonic acid into the active site of CYP4F22 in order to probe the ligand-binding modes. As a result, several key residues were identified to be responsible for the binding of arachidonic acid with CYP4F22. These findings provide useful information for understanding the biological roles of CYP4F22 and structure-based drug design. 相似文献

Cytochrome P450 isolated from Bacillus subtilis (P450(BSbeta); molecular mass, 48 kDa) catalyzes the hydroxylation of a long-chain fatty acid (e.g. myristic acid) at the alpha- and beta-positions using hydrogen peroxide as an oxidant. We report here on the crystal structure of ferric P450(BSbeta) in the substrate-bound form, determined at a resolution of 2.1 A. P450(BSbeta) exhibits a typical P450 fold. The substrate binds to a specific channel in the enzyme and is stabilized through hydrophobic interactions of its alkyl side chain with some hydrophobic residues on the enzyme as well as by electrostatic interaction of its terminal carboxylate with the Arg(242) guanidium group. These interactions are responsible for the site specificity of the hydroxylation site in which the alpha- and beta-positions of the fatty acid come into close proximity to the heme iron sixth site. The fatty acid carboxylate group interacts with Arg(242) in the same fashion as has been reported for the active site of chloroperoxidase, His(105)-Glu(183), which is an acid-base catalyst in the peroxidation reactions. On the basis of these observations, a possible mechanism for the hydroxylation reaction catalyzed by P450(BSbeta) is proposed in which the carboxylate of the bound-substrate fatty acid assists in the cleavage of the peroxide O-O bond. 相似文献

Three factors are of primary importance with respect to designing efficient P450 biocatalysts. (1) The substrate must be oxidized at a significant rate. (2) The regioselectivity must heavily favor the desired product. (3) The enzyme must use the majority of the reducing equivalents from NADH or NADPH to produce product. The reaction we chose to study was oxidation of 2-ethylhexanol to 2-ethylhexanoic acid by P450cam. We examined four active site mutations: F87W, Y96W, T185F, and L244A. The mutations were chosen to improve 2-ethyhexanoic acid production by decreasing active site volume, increasing active site hydrophobicity, and improving stereoselectivity. The F87W and Y96W mutations improved regioselectivity, giving almost exclusively the desired product. The T185F mutation improved coupling of NADH to product formation. The L244A mutation altered the stereoselectivity of 2-ethylhexanoic acid production. These results indicate that active site mutations of P450cam can alter catalysis of 2-ethylhexanol. 相似文献

Human cytochrome P450 (P450) enzymes exhibit remarkable diversity in their substrate specificities, participating in oxidation reactions of a wide range of xenobiotic drugs. Previously, we reported that alpha-naphthoflavone (ANF) is bound to the recombinant P450 1A2 tightly and stabilizes an overall enzyme conformation. The present study is designed to determine the type of P450 1A2 inhibition exerted by ANF, using two different substrates of P450 1A2, 7-ethoxycoumarin (EOC) and 7-ethoxyresorufin (EOR). ANF is generally known as a competitive inhibitor of the enzyme. However, in our tight-binding enzyme kinetics study, ANF acts as noncompetitive inhibitor in 7-ethoxycoumarin O-deethylation (ECOD) (K(i)=55.0 nM), but as competitive inhibitor in 7-ethoxyresorufin O-deethylation (EROD) (K(i)=1.4 nM). Based on homology modeling studies, ANF is positioned to bind to a hydrophobic cavity next to the active site where it may cause a direct effect on substrate binding. It is agreed with the predicted binding site of ANF in P450 3A4, in which ANF is rather known as a stimulating modulator. Our results suggest that ANF binds near the active site of P450 1A2 and exhibits differential inhibition mechanisms, possibly depending on the molecular structure of the substrate. 相似文献

A novel prokaryotic l-arginine:glycine amidinotransferase (CyrA; EC2.1.4.1) is involved in the biosynthesis of the polyketide-derived cytotoxin cylindrospermopsin in the cyanobacterium Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii AWT250, and was previously characterized with regard to kinetic mechanism and substrate specificity [Muenchhoff J et al. (2010) FEBS J277, 3844-3860]. In order to elucidate the structure-function-stability relationship of this enzyme, two residues in its active site were replaced with the residues that occur in the human l-arginine:glycine amidinotransferase (h-AGAT) at the corresponding positions (F245N and S247M), and a double variant carrying both substitutions was also created. In h-AGAT, both of these residues are critical for the function of this enzyme with regard to substrate binding, ligand-induced structural changes, and stability of the active site. In this study, we demonstrated that both single residue replacements resulted in a dramatic broadening of substrate specificity, but did not affect the kinetic mechanism. Experiments with substrate analogues indicate that donor substrates require a carboxylate group for binding. Evidence from initial velocity studies suggests that CyrA undergoes ligand-induced structural changes that involve Phe245. Stability parameters (T(opt) and T(max) ) of the CyrA variants differed from those of wild-type CyrA. Structural flexibilities of the wild type and all three variants were comparable on the basis of dynamic fluorescence quenching, indicating that changes in T(opt) are most likely attributable to localized effects within the active site. Overall, the results indicated that these two residues are essential for both stringent substrate specificity and the active site stability and flexibility of this unique cyanobacterial enzyme. 相似文献

While cytochrome P-450cam catalyzes the hydroxylation of camphor to 5-exo-hydroxycamphor with 100% stereospecificity, norcamphor is hydroxylated by this enzyme yielding 45% 5-exo-, 47% 6-exo-, and 8% 3-exo-hydroxynorcamphor (Atkins, W.M., Sligar, S.G., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 109:3754-3760, 1987). The present study describes a 201-psec molecular dynamics (MD) stimulation of norcamphorbound cytochrome P-450cam to elucidate the relationship between substrate conformational mobility and formation of alternative products. First, these data suggest that the product specificity is, at least partially, due to the mobility of the substrate within the active site. Second, the high mobility of norcamphor in the active site leads to an average increase in separation between the heme iron and the substrate of about 1.0 A; this increase in separation may be the cause of the uncoupling of electron transfer when norcamphor is the substrate. Third, the active site water located in the norcamphorbound crystal structure possesses mobility that correlates well with the spin-state equilibrium of this enzyme-substrate complex. 相似文献

Enhancement of 7-methoxyresorufin O-demethylation activity of human cytochrome P450 1A2 by molecular breeding 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Alkylresorufins are model substrates for cytochrome P450 (P450) 1A2. The ability of human P450 1A2 to catalyze 7-methoxyresorufin O-demethylation was improved by screening of random mutant libraries (expressed in Escherichia coli) on the basis of 7-methoxyresorufin O-demethylation. After three rounds of mutagenesis and screening, the triple mutant E163K/V193M/K170Q yielded a kcat > five times faster than wild type P450 1A2 in steady-state kinetic analysis using either isolated membrane fractions or purified, reconstituted enzymes. The enhanced catalytic activity was not attributed to changes in substrate affinity. The kinetic hydrogen isotope effect of the triple mutant did not change from wild type enzyme and suggests that C-H bond cleavage is rate-limiting in both enzymes. Homology modeling, based on an X-ray structure of rabbit P450 2C5, suggests that the locations of mutated residues are not close to the substrate binding site and therefore that structural elements outside of this site play roles in changing the catalytic activity. This approach has potential value in understanding P450 1A2 and generating engineered enzymes with enhanced catalytic activity. 相似文献

Cytochromes P450 (CYPs) comprise a superfamily of enzymes involved in various physiological functions, including the metabolism of drugs and carcinogenic compounds present in food, making them of great importance for human health. The possibility that CYPs could be broadening or changing substrate specificity in accordance to the high diversity of xenobiotics compounds environmentally available suggests that their metabolic function could be under adaptive evolution. We evaluated the existence of functional divergence and signatures of selection on mammalian genes from the drug-metabolizing CYP2 family. Thirteen of the sites found to be functionally divergent and the eight found to be under strong positive selection occurred in important functional domains, namely on the substrate entrance channel and within the active site. Our results provide insight into CYPs evolution and the role of molecular adaptation in enzyme substrate-specificity diversification. 相似文献

In cytochrome P450s, the active site is situated deep inside the protein next to the heme cofactor, and is often completely isolated from the surrounding solvent. To identify routes by which substrates may enter into and products exit from the active site, random expulsion molecular dynamics simulations were performed for three cytochrome P450s: CYP101, CYP102A1 and CYP107A1 [J. Mol. Biol. 303 (2000) 797; Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 99 (2002) 5361]. Amongst the different pathways identified, one pathway was found to be common to all three cytochrome P450s although the mechanism of ligand passage along it was different in each case and apparently adapted to the substrate specificity of the enzyme. Recently, a number of new crystal structures of cytochrome P450s have been solved. Here, we analyse the open channels leading to the active site that these structures reveal. We find that in addition to showing the common pathway, they provide experimental evidence for the existence of three additional channels that were identified by simulation. We also discuss how the location of xenon binding sites in CYP101 suggests a role for one of the pathways identified by molecular dynamics simulations as a route for gaseous species, such as oxygen, to access the active site. 相似文献
