This work provides functional data showing that the bacterial CYP102A1 recognises compounds metabolised by human CYP3A4, CYP2E1 and CYP1A2 and is able to catalyse different reactions. Wild-type cytochrome CYP102A1 from Bacillus megaterium is a catalytically self-sufficient enzyme, containing an NADPH-dependent reductase and a P450 haem domain fused in a single polypeptidie chain. An NADPH-dependent method (Tsotsou et al. in Biosens. Bioelectron. 17:119–131, 2002) together with spectroscopic assays were applied to investigate the catalytic activity of CYP102A1 towards 19 xenobiotics, including 17 commercial drugs. These molecules were chosen to represent typical substrates of the five main families of drug-metabolising human cytochromes P450. Liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry analysis showed that CYP102A1 catalyses the hydroxylation of chlorzoxazone, aniline and p-nitrophenol, as well as the N-dealkylation of propranolol and the dehydrogenation of nifedipine. These drugs are typical substrates of human CYP2E1 and CYP3A4. The K M values calculated for these compounds were in the millimolar range: 1.21 ± 0.07 mM for chlorzoxazone, 2.52 ± 0.08 mM for aniline, 0.81 ± 0.04 mM for propranolol. The values of v max for chlorzoxazone and propranolol were 46.0 ± 9.0 and 7.6 ± 3.4 nmol min−1 nmol−1, respectively. These values are higher then those measured for the human enzymes. The v max value for aniline was 9.4 ± 1.3 nmol min−1 nmol−1, comparable to that calculated for human cytochromes P450. The functional data were found to be in line with the sequence alignments, showing that the identity percentage of CYP102A1 with CYP3A4 and CYP2E1 is higher than that found for CYP1A2, CYP2C9 and CYP2D6 families.  相似文献

Toxic and pharmacokinetic profiles of drug candidates are evaluated in vivo often using monkeys as experimental animals, and the data obtained are extrapolated to humans. Well understanding physiological properties, including drug-metabolizing enzymes, of monkeys should increase the accuracy of the extrapolation. The present study was performed to compare regio- and stereoselectivity in the oxidation of propranolol (PL), a chiral substrate, by cytochrome P450 2D (CYP2D) enzymes among humans, cynomolgus monkeys and marmosets. Complimentary DNAs encoding human CYP2D6, cynomolgus monkey CYP2D17 and marmoset CYP2D19 were cloned, and their proteins expressed in a yeast cell expression system. The regio- and stereoselective oxidation of PL enantiomers by yeast cell microsomal fractions were compared. In terms of efficiency of expression in the system, the holo-proteins ranked CYP2D6 ≒ CYP2D17 ? CYP2D19. This may be caused by the bulky side chain of the amino acid residue at position 119 (leucine for CYP2D19 vs. valine for CYP2D6 and CYP2D17), which can disturb the incorporation of the heme moiety into the active-site cavity. PL enantiomers were oxidized by all of the enzymes mainly into 4-hydroxyproranolol (4-OH-PL), followed by 5-OH-PL and N-desisopropylpropranolol (NDP). In the kinetic analysis, apparent Km values were commonly in the μM range and substrate enantioselectivity of R-PL < S-PL was observed in both Km and Vmax values for the formation of the three metabolites from PL enantiomers. The activity to produce NDP tended to be higher for the monkey enzymes, particularly CYP2D17, than for the human enzyme. These results indicate that in the oxidation of PL enantiomers by CYP2D enzymes, stereoselectivity is similar but regioselectivity is different between humans and monkeys.  相似文献

The final reactions of rosmarinic acid biosynthesis, the introduction of the aromatic 3- and 3′-hydroxyl groups, are catalysed by cytochrome P450-dependent hydroxylases. The cDNAs encoding CYP98A14 as well as a NADPH:cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR) were isolated from Coleus blumei and actively expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The CYP98A14-cDNA showed an open reading frame of 1521 nucleotides with high similarities to 4-coumaroylshikimate/quinate 3-hydroxylases. Yeast microsomes harbouring the CYP98A14 protein catalysed the 3-hydroxylation of 4-coumaroyl-3′,4′-dihydroxyphenyllactate and the 3′-hydroxylation of caffeoyl-4′-hydroxyphenyllactate, in both cases forming rosmarinic acid. Apparent K m-values for 4-coumaroyl-3′,4′-dihydroxyphenyllactate and caffeoyl-4′-hydroxyphenyllactate were determined to be at 5 μM and 40 μM, respectively. CYP98A14 differs from CYP98s from other plants, since 4-coumaroylshikimate or -quinate were not accepted as substrates. Coexpression of the Coleus blumei CPR and CYP98A14 in the same yeast cells increased the hydroxylation activity up to sevenfold. CYP98A14 from Coleus blumei is a novel bifunctional cytochrome P450 specialised for rosmarinic acid biosynthesis.  相似文献

We introduced two novel types of pig (Sus scrofa) cytochrome P450, CYP2B22 and CYP2C49, into rice plants (Oryza sativa L. cv. ‘Nipponbare’) to produce herbicide-tolerant plants and to confirm the metabolic activities of the cytochrome P450 species. In germination tests, both types of transgenic plants showed tolerance to various herbicides with different modes of action. CYP2B22 rice plants showed tolerance towards 12 herbicides including chlortoluron (100 μM), amiprofos-methyl (2.5 μM), pendimethalin (10 μM), metolachlor (2.5 μM), and esprocarb (20 μM). CYP2C49 rice plants showed tolerance towards 13 herbicides, including chlortoluron (100 μM), norflurazon (0.5 μM), amiprofos-methyl (2.5 μM), alachlor (0.8 μM), and isoxaben (1 μM). The herbicide tolerance was considered to reflect the substrate specificity of the introduced P450 species. We used 14C-labeled metolachlor and norflurazon to confirm the P450 activity in the transgenic rice plants. The herbicides were metabolized more quickly in the transgenic rice plants than in the nontransgenic rice plants. Therefore, CYP2B22 and CYP2C49 rice plants became more tolerant to various herbicides than nontransgenic control plants because of accelerated metabolism of the herbicides by the introduced P450 species. Assuming that public and commercial acceptance is forthcoming, these transgenic rice plants may become useful tools for the breeding of herbicide-tolerant crops.  相似文献

Tributyl phosphate (TBP) is a toxic organophosphorous compound widely used in nuclear fuel processing and chemical industries. Rhodopseudomonas palustris, one of the most metabolically versatile photosynthetic bacteria, is shown here to degrade TBP efficiently under photosynthetic conditions. This study shows that this O2- and NADPH/FMNH2-dependent process was also catalyzed when TBP was incubated with membrane-associated proteins extracted from this strain. The effects of several regulators of cytochrome P450 activity on the TBP consumption suggest a key role for a cytochrome P450 in this process. Disruption of the rpa0241 gene encoding a putative cytochrome P450 led to a 60% decrease of the TBP catabolism, whereas reintroducing the gene in the mutant restored the wild-type phenotype. The rpa0241 gene was expressed and purified in Escherichia coli. Characterization by UV-visible spectroscopy of the purified recombinant membrane-bound protein (CYP201A2) encoded by the rpa0241 gene revealed typical spectral characteristics of cytochrome P450 with a large spin state change of the heme iron associated with binding of TBP (K d ≈ 65 μM). It is proposed that CYP201A2 catalyzes the initial step of the biodegradation process of TBP.  相似文献

The neonicotinoid imidacloprid is one of the most important insecticides worldwide. It is used extensively against the whitefly Bemisia tabaci (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae), an insect pest of eminent importance globally, which was also the first pest to develop high levels of resistance against imidacloprid and other neonicotinoids in the field. Recent reports indicated that in both the B and Q biotypes of B. tabaci, the resistant phenotype is associated with over-expression of the cytochrome P450 gene CYP6CM1. In this study, molecular docking and dynamic simulations were used to analyze interactions of imidacloprid with the biotype Q variant of the CYP6CM1 enzyme (CYP6CM1vQ). The binding mode with the lowest energy in the enzyme active site, the key amino acids involved (i.e. Phe-130 and Phe-226), and the putative hydroxylation site (lowest distance to carbon 5 of the imidazolidine ring system of imidacloprid) were predicted. Heterologous expression of the CYP6CM1vQ confirmed the accuracy of our predictions and demonstrated that the enzyme catalyses the hydroxylation of imidacloprid to its less toxic 5-hydroxy form (Kcat = 3.2 pmol/min/pmol P450, Km = 36 μM). The data identify CYP6CM1vQ as a principle target for inhibitor design, aimed at inactivating insecticide-metabolizing P450s in natural insect pest populations.  相似文献

Polymorphic alleles of CYP17 and CYP19, which are involved in estrogen biosynthesis, were tested for association with breast cancer (BC). Microsatellite (TTTA)n and 3-bp deletion of CYP19 and single-nucleotide polymorphism T27C of CYP17 were analyzed in 123 BC patients and 119 healthy women. Of the six (TTTA)n alleles observed, allele (TTTA)8 proved to be associated with BC (11.8% vs. 6.3%, P = 0.04). Genotype A2/A2 of CYP17 was also associated with BC (32.5% vs. 20.2%, P = 0.04). Risk of BC was especially high in the presence of both factors (7.3% vs. 0%, P < 0.01). Allele (TTTA)8 and genotype A2/A2 were assumed to be risk factors of BC.  相似文献

Formation of the methylenedioxy bridge is an integral step in the biosynthesis of benzo[c]phenanthridine and protoberberine alkaloids in the Papaveraceae family of plants. This reaction in plants is catalyzed by cytochrome P450-dependent enzymes. Two cDNAs that encode cytochrome P450 enzymes belonging to the CYP719 family were identified upon interrogation of an EST dataset prepared from 2-month-old plantlets of the Mexican prickly poppy Argemone mexicana that accumulated the benzo[c]phenanthridine alkaloid sanguinarine and the protoberberine alkaloid berberine. CYP719A13 and CYP719A14 are 58% identical to each other and 77% and 60% identical, respectively, to stylopine synthase CYP719A2 of benzo[c]phenanthridine biosynthesis in Eschscholzia californica. Functional heterologous expression of CYP719A14 and CYP719A13 in Spodoptera frugiperda Sf9 cells produced recombinant enzymes that catalyzed the formation of the methylenedioxy bridge of (S)-cheilanthifoline from (S)-scoulerine and of (S)-stylopine from (S)-cheilanthifoline, respectively. Twenty-seven potential substrates were tested with each enzyme. Whereas CYP719A14 transformed only (S)-scoulerine to (S)-cheilanthifoline (Km 1.9 ± 0.3; kcat/Km 1.7), CYP719A13 converted (S)-tetrahydrocolumbamine to (S)-canadine (Km 2.7 ± 1.3; kcat/Km 12.8), (S)-cheilanthifoline to (S)-stylopine (Km 5.2 ± 3.0; kcat/Km 2.6) and (S)-scoulerine to (S)-nandinine (Km 8.1 ± 1.9; kcat/Km 0.7). These results indicate that although CYP719A14 participates in only sanguinarine biosynthesis, CYP719A13 can be involved in both sanguinarine and berberine formation in A. mexicana.  相似文献

The mode of photoinhibition as a function of the ambient redox potential (Eambient) in suspensions of Tris-washed PS II membrane fragments has been analyzed by monitoring flash-induced absorption changes at 830 nm. It was found: (a) the detectable initial amplitude, ΔAtotal 830, as a measure of the capacity to form the `stable' radical pair, P680 Q−ċ A, drastically decreases during a 10 min photoinhibition at Eambient values below +350 mV; (b) conversely, the normalized extent of the 18 μs relaxation kinetics, ΔA18 μ s 830 as a measure of the electron transfer from YZ to P680 becomes highly susceptible to light stress when Eambient exceeds values of about +350 mV; (c) effects of the ambient redox potentials are highly pronounced during light exposure under anaerobic conditions, while much smaller differences arise under aerobic conditions; (d) the extent of damage does not correlate with the total concentration of K3[Fe(CN)6] and K4[Fe(CN)6] in the suspension during photoinhibition but rather depends on the Em-values; (e) qualitatively similar features are observed when the redox buffer system K3[Fe(CN)6]/Na2S2O4 is replaced by K2[IrCl6]/Na2S2O4; (f) the characteristic Eambient-dependence of photoinhibition is observed only under anaerobic conditions. The results are discussed with respect to different redox components that might be involved, including brief comments on a possible role of Cyt b559.

Inhibition of cytochrome P-450 1A2 (CYP1A2)-mediated activation of procarcinogens may be an important chemopreventive mechanism. Consumption of apiaceous vegetables (rich in furanocoumarins) inhibits CYP1A2 in humans. Because many furanocoumarins are potent inhibitors of several CYPs, we characterized the effects of three furanocoumarins from apiaceous vegetables on human CYP1A2 (hCYP1A2). We assessed hCYP1A2 methoxyresorufin O-demethylase (MROD) activity using microsomes from Saccharomyces cerevisiae expressing hCYP1A2. Isopimpinellin exhibited mechanism-based inactivation (MBI) of hCYP1A2 (K i  = 1.2 μM, k inact = 0.34 min−1, and partition ratio = 8). Imperatorin and trioxsalen were characterized as mixed inhibitors with K i values of 0.007 and 0.10 μM, respectively. These results indicate that even if present at low levels in apiaceous vegetables, imperatorin, trioxsalen and isopimpinellin may contribute significantly to CYP1A2 inhibition and potentially decreased procarcinogen activation. Moreover, the in vivo effect of isopimpinellin on CYP1A2 may be longer lasting compared to reversible inhibitors.  相似文献

Activities of the iron complexes of evolutionary importance like K4[Fe(CN)6], K4[Fe(CN)5(gly)], and K4[Fe(CN)5(trigly)] have been tested towards some redox reactions of biological significance, namely, decomposition of hydrogen peroxide, dehydrogenation of NADH and ascorbic acid both coupled with reduction of methylene blue. It has been observed that the catalytic activities of iron (II) complexes towards the redox reactions studied at pH 9.18 followed the order, K4[Fe(CN)6]4[Fe(CN)5(gly)]4[Fe(CN)5(trigly)]. Decomposition of H2O2 catalysed by cyanocomplexes of iron (II) has been discussed through the formation of an innersphere complex in which loosly bound ligands like, glycine and triglycine are replaced by hydroperoxide ion. A tentative mechanism for the catalysed decomposition of H2O2 has been discussed.Based upon the experimental observations a hypothesis on the evolution of iron containing enzymes has been envisaged as: iron(II) ion iron(II) cyanide complexes mixed ligand iron(II) cyanide and amino acid complexes iron(II) complexes of macromolecules proenzyme or early enzyme containing iron(II).  相似文献

This study aimed to express two major drug-metabolizing human hepatic cytochromes P450 (CYPs), CYP2D6 and CYP3A4, together with NADPH-cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (OxR) in Escherichia coli and to evaluate their catalytic activities. Full length cDNA clones of both isoforms in which the N-terminus was modified to incorporate bovine CYP17α sequence were inserted into a pCWori+ vector. The modified CYP cDNAs were subsequently expressed individually, each together with OxR by means of separate, compatible plasmids with different antibiotic selection markers. The expressed proteins were evaluated by immunoblotting and reduced CO difference spectral scanning. Enzyme activities were examined using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) assays with probe substrates dextromethorphan and testosterone for CYP2D6 and CYP3A4, respectively. Results from immunoblotting demonstrated the presence of both CYP proteins in bacterial membranes and reduced CO difference spectra of the cell preparations exhibited the characteristic absorbance peak at 450 nm. Co-expressed OxR also demonstrated an activity level comparable to literature values. Kinetic parameters, Km and Vmax values determined from the HPLC assays also agreed well with literature values. As a conclusion, the procedures described in this study provide a relatively convenient and reliable means of producing catalytically active CYP isoforms suitable for drug metabolism and interaction studies.  相似文献

The human liver cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2A6 and the respiratory CYP2A13 enzymes play role in nicotine metabolism and activation of tobacco-specific nitrosamine carcinogens. Inhibition of both enzymes could offer a strategy for smoking abstinence and decreased risks of respiratory diseases and lung cancer. In this study, activity-guided isolation identified four flavonoids 14 (apigenin, luteolin, chrysoeriol, quercetin) from Vernonia cinerea and Pluchea indica, four hirsutinolide-type sesquiterpene lactones 58 from V. cinerea, and acetylenic thiophenes 911 from P. indica that inhibited CYP2A6- and CYP2A13-mediated coumarin 7-hydroxylation. Flavonoids were most effective in inhibition against CYP2A6 and CYP2A13, followed by thiophenes, and hirsutinolides. Hirsutinolides and thiophenes exhibited mechanism-based inhibition and in irreversible mode against both enzymes. The inactivation kinetic KI values of hirsutinolides against CYP2A6 and CYP2A13 were 5.32–15.4 and 0.92–8.67 µM, respectively, while those of thiophenes were 0.11–1.01 and 0.67–0.97 µM, respectively.  相似文献

All cytochrome P450s (CYPs) contain a cysteinate heme iron proximal ligand that plays a crucial role in their mechanism of action. Conversion of the proximal Cys436 to Ser in NH2-truncated microsomal CYP2B4 (ΔCYP2B4) transforms the enzyme into a two-electron NADPH oxidase producing H2O2 without monooxygenase activity [K.P. Vatsis, H.M. Peng, M.J. Coon, J. Inorg. Biochem. 91 (2002) 542–553]. To examine the effects of this ligation change on the heme iron spin-state and coordination structure of ΔC436S CYP2B4, the magnetic circular dichroism and electronic absorption spectra of several oxidation/ligation states of the variant have been measured and compared with those of structurally defined heme complexes. The spectra of the substrate-free ferric mutant are indicative of a high-spin five-coordinate structure ligated by anionic serinate. The spectroscopic properties of the dithionite-reduced (deoxyferrous) protein are those of a five-coordinate (high-spin) state, and it is concluded that the proximal ligand has been protonated to yield neutral serine (ROH-donor). Low-spin six-coordinate ferrous complexes of the mutant with neutral sixth ligands (NO, CO, and O2) examined are also likely ligated by neutral serine, as would be expected for ferric complexes with anionic sixth ligands such as the hydroperoxo-ferric catalytic intermediate. Ligation of the heme iron by neutral serine vs. deprotonated cysteine is likely the result of the large difference in their acidity. Thus, without the necessary proximal ligand push of the cysteinate, although the ΔC436S mutant can accept two electrons and two protons, it is unable to heterolytically cleave the O–O bond of the hydroperoxo-ferric species to generate Compound I and hydroxylate the substrate.  相似文献

Cytochrome P-450 is a group of enzymes involved in the biotransformation of many substances, including drugs. These enzymes possess a heme group (1) that when it is properly modified induces several important physicochemical changes that affect their enzymatic activity. In this work, the five structurally modified heme derivatives 2–6 and the native heme 1 were docked on CYP2B4, (an isoform of P450), in order to determine whether such modifications alter their binding form and binding affinity for CYP2B4 apoprotein. In addition, docking calculations were used to evaluate the affinity of CYP2B4 apoprotein-heme complexes for aniline (A) and N-methyl-aniline (NMA). Results showing the CYP2B4 heme 4- and heme 6-apoprotein complexes to be most energetically stable indicate that either hindrance effects or electronic properties are the most important factors with respect to the binding of heme derivatives at the heme-binding site. Furthermore, although all heme-apoprotein complexes demonstrated high affinity for both A and NMA, the CYP2B4 apoprotein-5 complex had higher affinity for A, and the heme 6 complex had higher affinity for NMA. Finally, surface electronic properties (SEP) were calculated in order to explain why certain arginine residues of CYP2B4 apoprotein interact with polarizable functionalities, such as ester groups or sp 2 carbons, present in some heme derivates. The main physicochemical parameter involved in the recognition process of the heme derivatives, the CYP2B4 apoprotein and A or NMA, are reported.

Polymorphisms of CYP450 metabolizer enzymes and transport proteins play crucial roles in the inter‐individual variability of drug efficiency. The aim of our study was to predict the frequency of functional variants of CYP2D6, CYP2C19 and ABCB1 genes in the Hungarian population. One hundred twelve unrelated healthy subjects donated DNA sample in the study. ABCB1 C3435T and G2677T/A single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were determined by LightCycler polymerase chain reaction. Because only limited amount of data is available on the rare allelic variants of CYP2D6 in the European populations, our study applied an expanded set of CYP2D6 and CYP2C19 alleles by using AmpliChip test. Our results show that the CYP2D6 phenotypes were 1.9% ultra‐rapid metabolizer, 6.5% intermediate metabolizer (IM), 8.3% poor metabolizer (PM) and 83.3% extensive metabolizer (EM), and the CYP2C19 phenotypes were 1.8% PM, 31.2% IM and 67% EM. The prevalence of the commonly observed CYP2D6 and CYP2C19 alleles in our study corresponds with that of other European populations. Nevertheless, our study confirms that extending the CYP2D6 allele set with loss‐of‐function variants such as CYP2D6*7, *9, *41 is worth considering. Frequency of the wild type ABCB1 3435C was 42.8% whereas the prevelance of 2677 G was 50.4%. Although frequency data of G2677T/A SNP in the European area are limited, some discrepancies with other studies were found. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases are involved in insecticide resistance in insects. We previously observed an increase in CYP6P7 and CYP6AA3 mRNA expression in Anopheles minimus mosquitoes during the selection for deltamethrin resistance in the laboratory. CYP6AA3 has been shown to metabolize deltamethrin, while no information is known for CYP6P7. In this study, CYP6P7 was heterologously expressed in the Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf9) insect cells via baculovirus‐mediated expression system. The expressed CYP6P7 protein was used for exploitation of its enzymatic activity against insecticides after reconstitution with the An. minimus NADPH‐cytochrome P450 reductase enzyme in vitro. The ability of CYP6P7 to metabolize pyrethroids and insecticides in the organophosphate and carbamate groups was compared with CYP6AA3. The results revealed that both CYP6P7 and CYP6AA3 proteins could metabolize permethrin, cypermethrin, and deltamethrin pyrethroid insecticides, but showed the absence of activity against bioallethrin (pyrethroid), chlorpyrifos (organophosphate), and propoxur (carbamate). CYP6P7 had limited capacity in metabolizing λ‐cyhalothrin (pyrethroid), while CYP6AA3 displayed activity toward λ‐cyhalothrin. Kinetic properties suggested that CYP6AA3 had higher efficiency in metabolizing type I than type II pyrethroids, while catalytic efficiency of CYP6P7 toward both types was not significantly different. Their kinetic parameters in insecticide metabolism and preliminary inhibition studies by test compounds in the flavonoid, furanocoumarin, and methylenedioxyphenyl groups elucidated that CYP6P7 had different enzyme properties compared with CYP6AA3. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.  相似文献

The primary objective of this study was to determine specific cytochrome P450 isozyme(s) involved in the metabolism of aldrin to its toxic metabolite dieldrin in flathead mullet (Mugil cephalus) liver microsomes. To identify the cytochrome P450 isozyme responsible for the aldrin metabolism in mullet liver, the effects of mammalian‐specific cytochrome P450 inhibitors and substrates were determined in the epoxidation reaction of aldrin. CYP3A‐related inhibitors, ketoconazole, SKF‐525A, and cimetidine, inhibited the metabolism of aldrin. The contribution of CYP1A to the aldrin metabolism was shown by the inhibition of 7‐ethoxyresorufin‐O‐deethylase activity in the presence of aldrin. The results indicate that CY1A and CYP3A are the cytochrome P450s involved in aldrin epoxidase activity in mullet. In addition, the suitability of aldrin epoxidase activity for monitoring of environmental pollution was also assessed in the fish samples caught from four different locations of the West Black Sea coast of Turkey.  相似文献

We report geometries, stabilization energies, symmetry adapted perturbation theory (SAPT) and quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) analyses of a series of carbene–BX3 complexes, where X = H, OH, NH2, CH3, CN, NC, F, Cl, and Br. The stabilization energies were calculated at HF, B3LYP, MP2, MP4 and CCSD(T)/aug-cc-pVDZ levels of theory using optimized geometries of all the complexes obtained from B3LYP/aug-cc-pVTZ. Quantitatively, all the complexes indicate the presence of B–Ccarbene interaction due to the short B–Ccarbene distances. Inspection of stabilization energies reveals that the interaction energies increase in the order NH2 > OH > CH3 > F > H > Cl > Br > NC > CN, which is the opposite trend shown in the binding distances. Considering the SAPT results, it is found that electrostatic effects account for about 50% of the overall attraction of the studied complexes. By comparison, the induction components of these interactions represent about 40% of the total attractive forces. Despite falling in a region of charge depletion with ∇2 ρ BCP >0, the B–Ccarbene bond critical points (BCPs) are characterized by a reasonably large value of the electron density (ρ BCP) and HBCP <0, indicating that the potential energy overcomes the kinetic energy density at BCP and the B–Ccarbene bond is a polar covalent bond.  相似文献

Sesquiterpenes are particularly interesting as flavorings and fragrances or as pharmaceuticals. Regio- or stereoselective functionalizations of terpenes are one of the main goals of synthetic organic chemistry, which are possible through radical reactions but are not selective enough to introduce the desired chiral alcohol function into those compounds. Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases are versatile biocatalysts and are capable of performing selective oxidations of organic molecules. We were able to demonstrate that CYP109D1 from Sorangium cellulosum So ce56 functions as a biocatalyst for the highly regioselective hydroxylation of norisoprenoids, α- and β-ionone, which are important aroma compounds of floral scents. The substrates α- and β-ionone were regioselectively hydroxylated to 3-hydroxy-α-ionone and 4-hydroxy-β-ionone, respectively, which was confirmed by 1H NMR and 13C NMR. The results of docking α- and β-ionone into a homology model of CYP109D1 gave a rational explanation for the regio-selectivity of the hydroxylation. Kinetic studies revealed that α- and β-ionone can be hydroxylated with nearly identical V max and K m values. This is the first comprehensive investigation of the regioselective hydroxylation of norisoprenoids by CYP109D1.  相似文献
