Adrenocortical NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase (EC. 1.6.2.4) was purified from bovine adrenocortical microsomes by detergent solubilization and affinity chromatography. The purified cytochrome P-450 reductase was a single protein band in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, being electrophoretically homogeneous and pure. The cytochrome P-450 reductase was optically a typical flavoprotein. The absorption peaks were at 274, 380 and 45 nm with shoulders at 290, 360 and 480 nm. The NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase was capable of reconstituting the 21-hydroxylase activity of 17 alpha-hydroxyprogesterone in the presence of cytochrome P-45021 of adrenocortical microsomes. The specific activity of the 21-hydroxylase of 17 alpha-hydroxyprogesterone in the reconstituted system using the excess concentration of the cytochrome P-450 reductase, was 15.8 nmol/min per nmol of cytochrome P-45021 at 37 degrees C. The NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase, like hepatic microsomal NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase, could directly reduce the cytochrome P-45021. The physicochemical properties of the NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase were investigated. Its molecular weight was estimated to be 80 000 +/- 1000 by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and analytical ultracentrifugation. The cytochrome P-450 reductase contained 1 mol each FAD and FMN as coenzymes. Iron, manganese, molybdenum and copper were not detected. The Km values of NADPH and NADH for the NADPH-cytochrome c reductase activity and those of cytochrome c for the activity of NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase were determined kinetically. They were 5.3 microM for NADPH, 1.1 mM for NADH, and 9-24 microM for cytochrome c. Chemical modification of the amino acid residues showed that a histidyl and cysteinyl residue are essential for the binding site of NADPH of NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase. 相似文献

NADPH-cytochrome P-450 (cytochrome c) reductase (EC 1.6.2.4) was solubilized by detergent from microsomal fraction of wounded Jerusalem-artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus L.) tubers and purified to electrophoretic homogeneity. The purification was achieved by two anion-exchange columns and by affinity chromatography on 2',5'-bisphosphoadenosine-Sepharose 4B. An Mr value of 82,000 was obtained by SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. The purified enzyme exhibited typical flavoprotein redox spectra and contained equimolar quantities of FAD and FMN. The purified enzyme followed Michaelis-Menten kinetics with Km values of 20 microM for NADPH and 6.3 microM for cytochrome c. In contrast, with NADH as substrate this enzyme exhibited biphasic kinetics with Km values ranging from 46 microM to 54 mM. Substrate saturation curves as a function of NADPH at fixed concentration of cytochrome c are compatible with a sequential type of substrate-addition mechanism. The enzyme was able to reconstitute cinnamate 4-hydroxylase activity when associated with partially purified tuber cytochrome P-450 and dilauroyl phosphatidylcholine in the presence of NADPH. Rabbit antibodies directed against plant NADPH-cytochrome c reductase affected only weakly NADH-sustained reduction of cytochrome c, but inhibited strongly NADPH-cytochrome c reductase and NADPH- or NADH-dependent cinnamate hydroxylase activities from Jerusalem-artichoke microsomal fraction. 相似文献

NADPH-cytochrome c reductase was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity from detergent solubilized sheep lung microsomes. The specific activity of the purified enzyme ranged from 56 to 67 mumol cytochrome c reduced/min/mg protein and the yield was 48-52% of the initial activity in lung microsomes. The reductase had Mr of 78,000 and contained 1 mol each of FAD and FMN. Km values obtained in 0.3 M phosphate buffer, pH 7.8 at 37 degrees C for NADPH and cytochrome c were 11.1 +/- 0.70 microM and 20.0 +/- 2.15 microM. Lung reductase was inhibited by its substrate, cytochrome c when its concentration was above 160 microM. The lung reductase exhibited a ping-pong type kinetic mechanism for NADPH mediated cytochrome c reduction. Purified lung reductase was biocatalytically active in supporting benzo(a)pyrene hydroxylation reaction when coupled with lung cytochrome P-450 and lipid. 相似文献

Reduced form of nicotineamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH)-cytochrome P450 reductase was solubilized from a microsomal fraction of Gentiana triflora flowers by 3-[(3 Cholamidopropyl)-dimethylammonio]-1-propane sulfonate detergent and purified to electrophoretic homogeneity. The purification was achieved by adenosine 2', 5'-bisphosphate-Sepharose chromatography, followed by high-performance anion-exchange chromatography. A Mr value of 82,000 was obtained by SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. Western blot analysis showed that the purified protein cross-reacted with polyclonal antibody raised against rabbit anti-Gentiana triflora NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase antibodies. The temperature and pH optimum for reduction of cytochrome c was 25 degrees C and 7.4 respectively. The Km values for the binding of NADPH and cytochrome c were 9.4 and 3.2 microM, respectively. In this paper, we present some results of the purification and partial characterization of microsomal NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase from Gentiana triflora flowers. 相似文献

NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase, an obligatory component of the cytochrome P450 dependent monooxygenase system, was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity from beef liver microsomes. The purification procedure involved the ion exchange chromatography of the detergent-solubilized microsomes on first and second DEAE-cellulose columns, followed by 2',5'-ADP Sepharose affinity chromatography. Further concentration of the enzyme and removal of Emulgen 913 and 2'-AMP were accomplished on the final hydroxylapatite column. The enzyme was purified 239-fold and the yield was 13.5%. Monomer molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be 76000 +/- 3000 (N = 5) by SDS-PAGE. The absolute absorption spectrum of beef reductase showed two peaks at 455 and 378 nm, with a shoulder at 478 nm, characteristics of flavoproteins. The effects of cytochrome c concentration, pH, and ionic strength on enzyme activity were studied. Reduction of cytochrome c with the enzyme followed Michaelis-Menten kinetics, and the apparent K(m) of the purified enzyme was found to be 47.7 microM for cytochrome c when the enzyme activity was measured in 0.3 M potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7.7). Stability of cytochrome c reductase activity was examined at 25 and 37 degrees C in the presence and absence of 20% glycerol. The presence of glycerol enhanced the stability of cytochrome c reductase activity at both temperatures. Sheep lung microsomal cytochrome P4502B and NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase were also purified by the already existing methods developed in our laboratory. Both beef liver and sheep lung reductases were found to be effective in supporting benzphetamine and cocaine N-demethylation reactions in the reconstituted systems containing purified sheep lung cytochrome P4502B and synthetic lipid, phosphatidylcholine dilauroyl. 相似文献

Studies on the microsomal electron-transport system of anaerobically grown yeast. V. Purification and characterization of NADPH-cytochrome c reductase. 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
A flavoprotein catalyzing the reduction of cytochrome c by NADPH was solubilized and purified from microsomes of yeast grown anaerobically. The cytochrome c reductase had an apparent molecular weight of 70,000 daltons and contained one mole each of FAD and FMN per mole of enzyme. The reductase could reduce some redox dyes as well as cytochrome c, but could not catalyze the reduction of cytochrome b5. The reductase preparation also catalyzed the oxidation of NADPH with molecular oxygen in the presence of a catalytic amount of 2-methyl-1,4-naphthoquinone (menadione). The Michaelis constants of the reductase for NADPH and cytochrome c were determined to be 32.4 and 3.4 micron M, respectively, and the optimal pH for cytochrome c reduction was 7.8 to 8.0. It was concluded that yeast NADPH-cytochrome c reductase is in many respects similar to the liver microsomal reductase which acts as an NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase [EC 1.6.2.4]. 相似文献

NADPH-cytochrome c (P-450) reductase (EC 1.6.2.4) was purified to apparent homogeneity from microsomes of house flies, Musca domestica L. The purification procedure involves column chromatography on three different resins. The key step in the purification scheme is the chromatography of the enzyme mixture on an affinity column of agarose-hexane-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate. The enzyme has an estimated molecular weight of 83,000 by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and contains 1 mol each of FAD and FMN per mol of enzyme. The enzyme exhibited a Bi Bi ping-pong kinetic mechanism with NADPH and cytochrome c. The Vmax and Km for cytochrome c were 42.3 mumol min-1 mg-1 and 12.7 muM, respectively. Turnover numbers based on micromoles of enzyme were 2,600 min-1. NADP+ and 2'-AMP both inhibited the reductases with apparent Ki values of 6.9 and 187 muM, respectively. These preparations of NADPH-cytochrome c reductase were found to reduce purified house fly cytochrome P-450 in the presence of NADPH. 相似文献

Detection of a system of microsomal monooxygenases in the rodent malaria parasite Plasmodium berghei
T V Chekhonadskikh N E Poliakova T G Pankova R I Salganik 《Biokhimii?a (Moscow, Russia)》1987,52(3):381-386
A microsomal fraction from the cells of the malaria parasite of rodent Plasmodium berghei was obtained. The spectral properties of microsomal preparations suggest that P. berghei microsomes contain cytochromes b5 and P-420. Electrophoretic separation of microsomal proteins revealed the presence of proteins whose molecular mass corresponds to NADPH-cytochrome c reductase, cytochrome P-450 and epoxide hydratase. The activities of NADPH-cytochrome c reductase and benzpyrene hydroxylase were determined. The spectral parameters, electrophoretic data and enzymatic activities of microsomal proteins indicate that P. berghei cells contain a cytochrome P-450 monooxygenase system. The interrelationship between the activity of the microsomal monooxygenase system and the resistance of P. berghei cells to the antimalaria preparation chloroquine is discussed. 相似文献

Participation of microsomal aldehyde reductase in long-chain fatty alcohol synthesis in the rat brain 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The participation of microsomal aldehyde reductase in long-chain fatty alcohol synthesis in the rat brain was examined. A reaction mixture of [1-14C]hexadecanoic acid with brain microsomes and NADPH formed two radioactive products having the same mobilities as pure hexadecanal (RF 0.61) and hexadecanol (RF 0.22), respectively, on TLC plates. The product of the RF 0.61 spot was further identified as hexadecanal using gas-liquid chromatography after methylation and TLC of its reduced product with LiAlH4 and semicarbazide. The ratio of hexadecanal to hexadecanol varied from 0.4 to 1.2 under the present experimental conditions. When solubilized rat brain microsomes were applied to a Sepharose 4B column coupled with the rabbit antibody raised against rat liver microsomal NADPH-cytochrome-c reductase, which reacts with aldehyde reductase from rat brain, the eluted fraction ceased to form [14C]hexadecanol but continued to form [14C]hexadecanal from [14C]hexadecanoic acid. These results strongly indicate that hexadecanal is the intermediate in the synthesis of hexadecanol from hexadecanoic acid in rat brain microsomes with the participation of microsomal aldehyde reductase. 相似文献

Ethylmorphine N-demethylase activity of the sheep liver and lung microsomes was reconstituted in the presence of solubilized microsomal cytochrome P-450, NADPH-cytochrome c reductase and synthetic lipid, phosphatidylcholine dilauroyl. The Km of the lung microsomal ethylmorphine N-demethylase was calculated to be 4.84 mM ethylmorphine from its Lineweaver-Burk graph and lung enzyme was inhibited by its substrate, ethylmorphine, when its concn was 25 mM and above, reaching to 67% inhibition at 50 mM concn. The Lineweaver-Burk and Eadie-Hofstee plots of the liver enzyme were found to be curvilinear. From these graphs, two different Km values were calculated for the liver enzyme as 4.17 mM and 0.40 mM ethylmorphine. Ethylmorphine N-demethylase activities of both liver and lung microsomes were inhibited by NiCl2, CdCl2 and ZnSO4. Ethylalcohol inhibited N-demethylation of ethylmorphine in lung and liver microsomes. Acetone (5%) slightly enhanced the N-demethylase activity of the liver enzyme, whereas 5% acetone completely inhibited the lung enzyme. Phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride at 0.10 mM and 0.25 mM concn had no effect on liver enzyme activity, while at these concns, it inhibited the activity of the lung enzyme by about 35%. 相似文献

NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase in rat testicular microsomal fraction was solubilized by trypsin, and purified to apparent homogeneity in polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be about 70,000 by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Km values were estimated as 18 microM for cytochrome c, 17 microM for dichlorophenol indophenol (DCPIP), 50 microM for K3Fe (CN)6 and 1.7 microM for NADPH. The cytochrome c reducing activity of the purified preparation was decreased by tetranitromethane (TNM), a reagent for nitration of tyrosine residues in a protein. The inactivation exhibited pseudo-first-order kinetics. A plot of log kapp vs log [TNM] gave a straight line with slope = 1.05, indicating the reaction of one modifier molecule in the inactivation process. The decrease of the reducing activities for DCPIP and K3Fe(CN)6 by TNM progressed more slowly than that for cytochrome c. The inactivation of cytochrome c reduction was protected completely by 0.1 mM NADP(H) and partially by 0.1 mM DCPIP and cytochrome c. No preventive change of the inactivation by TNM was observed by addition of NAD+ or testosterone. On the other hand, the differential modification by DTNB, TNM and DTT indicated that there were amino acid residues modified by TNM, such as tyrosine residues, at or near the active-site of the NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase. 相似文献

Rabbit antisera were prepared against cytochrome b5 and NADPH-cytochrome c reductase [EC 1.6.2.4] purified from rat liver microsomes, and utilized in examining the distribution of these and other membrane-bound enzymes among the vesicles of rat liver microsomal preparations by immunoprecipitation and immunoadsorption methods. Smooth microsomes with an average vesicular size of 200 nm (diameter) and sonicated smooth microsomes with an average diameter of 40-60 nm were used in subfractionation experiments. Immunoprecipitation of microsomal vesicles with anti-cytochrome b5 immunoglobulin failed to show any separation of the microsomes into fractions having different enzyme compositions. Cytochrome b5 was apparently distributed among all vesicles even when sonicated microsomes were used. When the antibody against NADPH-cytochrome c reductase was used, however, immunoadsorption of microsomes on Sepharose-bound antibody produced some separation of NADPH-cytochrome c reductase and cytochrome P-450 from NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase and cytochrome b5. The separation was more pronounced when sonicated microsomes were used. These results indicate microheterogeneity of the microsomal membrane, and suggest the clustering of NADPH-cytochrome c reductase and cytochrome P-450 molecules in the membrane. 相似文献

NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase was purified to apparent homogeneity from detergent-solubilized guinea pig liver microsomes. The reductase had a mol. wt of 78,000 and contained one mole each of FAD and FMN. Electron transfer activity to cytochrome c was optimal at a pH of 8.0 and an ionic strength of 0.43. The results of kinetic experiments were consistent with a ternary-complex mechanism for the interaction of the reductase with cytochrome c and NADPH. Km values for NADPH and cytochrome c were 3.1 and 26.7 microM, respectively. Inhibition by NADP+ and 2'-AMP was competitive with respect to NADPH; Ki values were 12.1 microM for NADP+ and 46.7 microM for 2'-AMP. 相似文献

Microsomal NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase of bovine brain: purification and properties 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Bovine brain microsomal NADH-cytochrome b5 (cyt. b5) reductase [EC 1.6.2.2] was solubilized by digestion with lysosomes, and purified 8,500-fold with a 20% recovery by procedures including affinity chromatography on 5'-AMP-Sepharose 4B. The purified enzyme showed one band of a molecular weight of 31,000 on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the purified enzyme without SDS revealed a major band with a faint minor band, both of which exhibited NADH-cyt. b5 reductase activity. The isoelectric points of these components were 6.0 (major) and 6.3 (minor). The apparent Km values of the purified enzyme for NADH and ferricyanide were 1.1 and 4.2 microM, respectively. The apparent Km value for cyt. b5 was 14.3 microM in 10 mM potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7.5). The apparent Vmax value was 1,190 mumol cyt. b5 reduced/min/mg of protein. The NADH-cyt. b5 reductase activity of the purified enzyme was inhibited by sulfhydryl inhibitors and flavin analogues. Inhibition by phosphate buffer or other inorganic salts of the enzyme activity of the purified enzyme was proved to be of the competitive type. These properties were similar to those of NADH-cyt. b5 reductase from bovine liver microsomes or rabbit erythrocytes, although the estimated enzyme content in brain was about one-twentieth of that in liver (per g wet tissue). An immunochemical study using an antibody to purified NADH-cyt. b5 reductase bovine liver microsomes indicated that NADH-cyt. b5 reductase from brain microsomes is immunologically identical to the liver microsomal enzyme. 相似文献

Aldrin epoxidation was studied in monooxygenase systems reconstituted from purified rat liver microsomal cytochrome P-450 or P-448, NADPH-cytochrome c reductase, dilauroylphosphatidylcholine and sodium cholate. Cytochrome P-450, purified from hepatic microsomes of phenobarbital-treated rats, exhibited a high rate of dieldrin formation. The low enzyme activity observed in the absence of the lipid and sodium cholate was increased threefold by addition of dilauroylphosphatidylcholine and was further stimulated twofold by addition of sodium cholate. The apparent Km for aldrin in the complete system was 7 +/- 2 microM. SKF 525-A, at a concentration of 250 microM, inhibited aldrin epoxidation by 65%, whereas 7,8-benzoflavone had no inhibitory effect at concentrations up to 250 microM. Addition of ethanol markedly increased epoxidase activity. The increase was threefold in the presence of 5% ethanol. When cytochrome P-448 purified from hepatic microsomes of 3-methylcholanthrene-treated rats was used, a very low rate of epoxidation was observed which was less than 3% of the activity mediated by cytochrome P-450 under similar assay conditions. Enzyme activity was independent of the lipid factor dilauroylphosphatidylcholine. The apparent Km for aldrin was 27 +/- 7 microM. The modifiers of monooxygenase reactions, 7,8-benzoflavone, SKF 525-A and ethanol, inhibited the activity mediated by cytochrome P-448. The I50 was 0.05, 0.2 and 800 mM, respectively. These results indicate that aldrin is a highly selective substrate for cytochrome P-450 species present in microsomes of phenobarbital-treated animals and is a poor substrate for cytochrome P-448. The two forms of aldrin epoxidase can be characterised by their turnover number, their apparent Km and their sensitivity to modifiers, like 7,8-benzoflavone and ethanol. 相似文献

NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase was purified to apparent homogeneity and cytochrome P450 partially purified from whole rat brain. Purified reductase from brain was identical to liver P450 reductase by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and western blot techniques. Kinetic studies using cerebral P450 reductase reveal Km values in close agreement with those determined with enzyme purified from rat liver. Moreover, the brain P450 reductase was able to function successfully in a reconstituted microsomal system with partially purified brain cytochrome P450 and with purified hepatic P450c (P450IA1) as measured by 7-ethoxycoumarin and 7-ethoxyresorufin O-deethylation. Our results indicate that the reductase and P450 components may interact to form a competent drug metabolism system in brain tissue. 相似文献

NADPH-cytochrome c reductase, solubilized by lipase digestion of microsomes prepared from perfused porcine kidney cortex, was purified about 3600-fold to give a turnover number of 1230 nmoles cytochrome c reduced per min per nmole flavin. The kinetic determination of Km and V with respect to NADPH, cytochrome c, and NADH, resulted in values similar to those obtained with purified liver reductase. The kidney microsomal enzyme also exhibited a ping-pong kinetic mechanism for NADPH-mediated cytochrome c reduction.Spectrofluorometric measurements demonstrated the presence of equimolar amounts of FAD and FMN per mole of reductase. The molecular weight was estimated by Sephadex G-200 gel filtration and sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis to be 68,000 and 71,000 g per mole, respectively.Immunochemical techniques, including Ouchterlony double-diffusion studies and inhibition of catalytic activity by antibody to the liver microsomal NADPH-cytochrome c reductase, established the similarity of the purified liver and kidney reductases. 相似文献

The aim of the present study was to examine a recent proposal that inhibitory isozyme:isozyme interactions explain why membrane-bound isozymes of rat liver microsomal cytochrome P-450 exert only a fraction of the catalytic activity they express when purified and reconstituted with saturating amounts of NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase and optimal amounts of dilauroylphosphatidylcholine. The different pathways of testosterone hydroxylation catalyzed by cytochromes P-450a (7 alpha-hydroxylation), P-450b (16 beta-hydroxylation), and P-450c (6 beta-hydroxylation) enabled possible inhibitory interactions between these isozymes to be investigated simultaneously with a single substrate. No loss of catalytic activity was observed when purified cytochromes P-450a, P-450b, or P-450c were reconstituted in binary or ternary mixtures under a variety of incubation conditions. When purified cytochromes P-450a, P-450b, and P-450c were reconstituted under conditions that mimicked a microsomal system (with respect to the absolute concentration of both the individual cytochrome P-450 isozyme and NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase), their catalytic activity was actually less (69-81%) than that of the microsomal isozymes. These results established that cytochromes P-450a, P-450b, and P-450c were not inhibited by each other, nor by any of the other isozymes in the liver microsomal preparation. Incorporation of purified NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase into liver microsomes from Aroclor 1254-induced rats stimulated the catalytic activity of cytochromes P-450a, P-450b, and P-450c. Similarly, purified cytochromes P-450a, P-450b, and P-450c expressed increased catalytic activity in a reconstituted system only when the ratio of NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase to cytochrome P-450 exceeded that normally found in liver microsomes. These results indicate that the inhibitory cytochrome P-450 isozyme:isozyme interactions described for warfarin hydroxylation were not observed when testosterone was the substrate. In addition to establishing that inhibitory interactions between different cytochrome P-450 isozymes is not a general phenomenon, the results of the present study support a simple mass action model for the interaction between membrane-bound or purified cytochrome P-450 and NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase during the hydroxylation of testosterone. 相似文献

NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductases from pig liver and kidney and rabbit liver microsomes were purified to a specific activity of 50–62 μmol cytochrome c reduced/min/mg. All reductase preparations were separated into one major and one minor fraction on Sephadex G-200 columns. The molecular weights of the major fractions of the reductases were estimated to be 74,000, 75,000, and 75,500 for rabbit liver, pig kidney, and liver reductases, respectively, whereas the molecular weight of the minor fractions of these reductases, 67,000, was the same as that of the steapsin-solubilized pig liver reductase on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Km values for NADPH and cytochrome c were: 20 and 29 μm or 14 and 28 μm for the pig kidney or liver reductase, respectively. Immunochemical studies, including Ouchterlony double diffusion experiments and inhibition of benzphetamine N-demethylation activity in microsomes by antibody against pig liver NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase, indicated the similarity of the purified liver and kidney reductases. There were no differences in the ability to reconstitute NADPH-mediated benzphetamine N-demethylation and laurate hydroxylation in reconstituted systems between the pig liver and kidney reductases, indicating that the reductase did not determine substrate specificity in these systems. 相似文献

Incubation of rabbit liver microsomes with alkaline phosphatase resulted in a marked decrease of NADPH-dependent monooxygenase activities. This decrease was found to be correlated with the decrease of NADPH-cytochrome c reductase activity catalyzed by NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase. Neither the content of cytochrome P-450, as determined from its CO difference spectrum, nor the peroxide-supported demethylase activity catalyzed by cytochrome P-450 alone was affected by the phosphatase treatment. NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase and cytochrome b5 were not affected by the phosphatase either. NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase purified from rabbit liver microsomes lost its NADPH-dependent cytochrome c reductase activity upon incubation with phosphatase in a way similar to that of microsome-bound reductase. Flavin analysis showed that the phosphatase treatment caused a decrease of FMN with concomitant appearance of riboflavin. Alkaline phosphatase, therefore, inactivates the reductase by attacking its FMN, and the inactivation of the reductase, in turn, leads to a decrease of the microsomal monooxygenase activities. 相似文献
