Liver microsomes from phenobarbital-treated rats of four inbred strains expressing distinct allelic variants of cytochrome P450IIB1 were analyzed. The Wistar Munich (WM) strain exhibited 5- to 10-fold lower androstenedione 16 beta-hydroxylase activity (a specific P450IIB1 marker) than the Lewis, Wistar Kyoto, and Wistar Furth strains. The androstenedione 16 beta-hydroxylase in the WM liver microsomes was refractory to inactivation by N-(2-p-nitrophenethyl)chlorofluoroacetamide, a selective P450IIB1 inactivator in the other three strains. Purified P450IIB1-WM was insensitive to the inactivator and exhibited 5-fold lower androstenedione 16 beta-hydroxylase, testosterone 16-hydroxylase, and 7-ethoxycoumarin deethylase activities but the same benzphetamine demethylase activity and slightly higher androstenedione 16 alpha-hydroxylase activity than a P450IIB1 purified from outbred Sprague-Dawley rats, which appears to correspond to the form in Lewis rats. The stereoselectivity of androstenedione 16-hydroxylation catalyzed by P450IIB1-WM (16 beta-OH:16 alpha-OH = 1.4) is thus distinct from that (16 beta-OH:16 alpha-OH = 12-15) of other P450IIB1 preparations described. A cDNA encoding P450IIB1-WM was cloned and sequenced, revealing a single amino acid substitution (Gly-478----Ala) compared with the published sequence (Fujii-Kuriyama, Y., Mizukami, Y., Kawajiri, K., Sogawa, K., and Muramatsu, M. (1982) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 79, 2793-2797). Heterologous expression of P450IIB1 and P450IIB1-WM confirmed the striking difference in androstenedione metabolite profiles, strongly implicating the involvement of Ala-478 in defining the distinctive catalytic properties of P450IIB1-WM. 相似文献

Fusion proteins constructed between beta-galactosidase and six different segments of either cytochrome P450IIB1 or cytochrome P450IIB2 (ranging from 18 to 33 amino acids in length) were expressed in Escherichia coli. Rabbit antibodies raised against these fusion proteins were first adsorbed through a beta-galactosidase column and then immunopurified on a second column containing the corresponding fusion protein. With the exception of the antibodies directed against the hydrophobic amino-terminal segment of cytochrome P450IIB1, all the antipeptide antibodies recognized the major phenobarbital-inducible cytochromes P450IIB1 and -IIB2 on immunoblots of liver microsomal proteins. Two of the antibodies were raised against regions where cytochromes P450IIB1 and -IIB2 differ in primary structure, and were differentially reactive toward these two highly homologous cytochromes. Several of the antipeptide antibodies were also reactive with a third phenobarbital-inducible microsomal protein expressed in livers of some individual Sprague-Dawley rats which was shown to be more highly related to P450IIB1 than P450IIB2. This P450IIB1-related P450, designated P450IIB1*, was purified to apparent homogeneity and shown to hydroxylate the steroid hormones testosterone and androstenedione with the well-defined regiospecificity and high catalytic activity characteristic of P450IIB1. A fourth microsomal protein detected using the antipeptide antibodies appeared to be more highly related to P450IIB2. Because the segments on the P450 molecules recognized by these antipeptide antibodies are known, it is possible to predict where P450IIB1* and the P450IIB2-related protein differ from cytochromes P450IIB2 and -IIB1, respectively. These studies demonstrate the utility of site-specific anti-P450 antibodies raised to fusion peptides for studies on the expression of structurally related P450s and polymorphic variants within the cytochrome P450 gene superfamily. 相似文献

The phenobarbital-inducible P-450 forms IIB1 and IIB2 are identical in sequence except for 14 amino acid differences within the carboxyl-terminal half of the molecule. IIB1 has about a 5-10-fold higher turnover number for most monooxygenase substrates examined although the substrate specificities of both enzymes are virtually identical. Both P-450s oxygenate testosterone to yield the 16 alpha-hydroxy, 16 beta-hydroxy, 17-keto, and 16 beta-hydroxy, 17-keto metabolites as major products. A variant IIB2 cDNA, isolated from an uninduced rat liver lambda gt11 library, and when expressed in Hep G2 cells using a vaccinia virus vector, was found to code for a protein that produced the 16 alpha-hydroxy and 17-keto metabolites of testosterone but no 16 beta-hydroxylated products. Although the published sequences of IIB1 and IIB2 are identical within the N-terminal halves of the proteins, sequence analysis of the variant cDNA revealed two amino acid substitutions in this region; Leu58----Phe and I1e114----Phe. When these two amino acid changes were incorporated into IIB1, via construction of a chimeric cDNA, the resultant expressed enzyme did not catalyze the 16 beta-hydroxylation of testosterone or androstenedione. Formation of the 16 alpha-hydroxy and 17-keto metabolites, however, was only slightly reduced compared with the parent IIB1. A IIB1 protein that possessed only the I1e114----Phe replacement catalyzed the production of all four testosterone metabolites with only slightly different product ratios compared with the parent enzyme. The substrate specificity of a IIB1 variant containing only the Leu58----Phe replacement could not be determined, since that protein did not accumulate in cells infected with the corresponding recombinant vaccinia virus. These data suggest that two distinct amino acid residues located within the amino-terminal fourth of IIB1 and IIB2 can affect substrate orientation at the active site. 相似文献

Testosterone metabolism by cytochrome P-450 isozymes RLM3 and RLM5 and by microsomes. Metabolite identification 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Testosterone metabolism by cytochrome P-450 isozymes RLM3 and RLM5 in a reconstituted system and by rat liver microsomes was examined. Eleven metabolites were detected. Two of these, found in spots 2 and 4 of a thin layer plate, were only formed by the rat liver microsomes and may represent reductive metabolites of testosterone. A number of monohydroxy metabolites were conclusively identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. These include the 2-, 6 beta-, 7 alpha-, and 16 alpha-hydroxy isomers. Liver microsomes formed the 2 alpha- and 2 beta-epimers in a 1:2 ratio and both co-chromatographed with a third reduced metabolite in thin layer plate spot 4. In contrast with RLM5 about 90% of the 2-hydroxy isomer was the 2 alpha-epimer. RLM3 did not perform the 2-hydroxylation in detectable amounts. The 6 beta-isomer was a major metabolite of RLM3 and microsomes, but a minor product of metabolism by RLM5. In contrast, the 7 alpha-isomer was a minor metabolite of RLM3, was not formed by RLM5, and was a major microsomal metabolite. Hydroxylation at position 16 alpha was a major activity of RLM5 and the heterogeneous microsomal cytochromes, but with RLM3 it was a minor reaction. One new metabolite was found which appeared to be hydroxylated in the D-ring, had a mass spectrum different from both 16 alpha- and 16 beta-hydroxytestosterone, and was tentatively identified as a 15-hydroxy isomer. In agreement with the literature, androstene-3,17-dione was found to be an oxidative metabolite of testosterone by both microsomes and purified cytochrome P-450. It was a major metabolite of RLM5 but was not produced by RLM3. Studies with 18O2 and H218O conclusively show that oxidation of testosterone at C-17 does not involve transient incorporation of an oxygen atom in this position. A mechanism is suggested whereby cytochrome P-450 acts as a peroxidase in the formation of androstenedione. 相似文献

The metabolism of testosterone (TEST), androstenedione (AD) and progesterone (PROG) was assessed in hepatic microsomal fractions from male sheep. Rates of total hydroxylation of each steroid were lower in sheep liver than in microsomes isolated from untreated male rat, guinea pig or human liver, 6 beta-Hydroxylation was the most important pathway of biotransformation of each of the three steroids (0.80, 0.89 and 0.43 nmol/min/mg protein for TEST, AD and PROG, respectively). Significant minor metabolites from TEST were the 2 beta-, 15 beta- and 15 alpha-alcohols (0.19, 0.22 and 0.17 nmol/min/mg microsomal protein, respectively). Apart from the 6 beta-hydroxysteroid, only the 21-hydroxy derivative was formed from PROG at a significant rate (0.27 nmol/min/mg protein). The 6 beta-alcohol was the only metabolite formed from AD at a rate greater than 0.1 nmol/min/mg protein. Antisera raised in rabbits to several rat hepatic microsomal P450s were assessed for their capacity to modulate sheep microsomal TEST hydroxylation. Anti-P450 IIIA isolated from phenobarbital-induced rat liver effectively inhibited TEST hydroxylation at the 2 beta-, 6 beta-, 15 alpha- and 15 beta-positions (by 31-56% when incubated with microsomes at a ratio of 5 mg IgG/mg protein). IgG raised against rat P450 IIC11 and IIB1 inhibited the formation of some of the minor hydroxysteroid metabolites but did not decrease the rate of TEST 6 beta-hydroxylation. Western immunoblot analysis confirmed the cross-reactivity of anti-rat P450 IIIA with an antigen in sheep hepatic microsomes; anti-IIC11 and anti-IIB1 exhibited only weak immunoreactivity with proteins in these fractions. Considered together, the present findings indicate that, as is the case in many mammalian species, 6 beta-hydroxylation is the principal steroid biotransformation pathway of male sheep liver. Evidence from immunoinhibition and Western immunoblot experiments strongly implicate the involvement of a P450 from the IIIA subfamily in ovine steroid 6 beta-hydroxylation. 相似文献

The metabolism of xenobiotics and endogenous compounds by the constitutive dog liver cytochrome P450 PBD-2 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

We have investigated the metabolism of polychlorinated biphenyls and endogenous steroids by the major phenobarbital (PB)-inducible hepatic cytochromes P450 in dogs and rats, PBD-2 and PB-B, respectively. Previous results from our laboratory indicate that dog PBD-2 purified from microsomes of PB-treated animals is similar to rat PB-B with respect to structure and the regioselective metabolism of warfarin and androstenedione. The results also strongly suggest that PBD-2 is the P450 form responsible for metabolizing 2,2',4,4',5,5'-hexachlorobiphenyl (245-HCB) in liver microsomes from untreated dogs. In the present study, a cytochrome P450 with similar chromatographic behavior to that of PBD-2 has been purified from liver microsomes of untreated dogs. This protein is identical to PBD-2 based on (i) mobility on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, (ii) reactivity with anti-PBD-2 IgG, (iii) amino-terminal sequence, and (iv) 245-HCB metabolite profile. Induction and antibody-inhibition data suggest that PBD-2 is responsible for the metabolism of 2,2',3,3',6,6'-hexachlorobiphenyl (236-HCB) in microsomes obtained from both untreated and PB-treated dogs. In contrast, metabolism of 4,4'-dichlorobiphenyl (4-DCB) by dog microsomes is poor, and does not appear to be catalyzed to a significant extent by PBD-2. Antibody-inhibition studies with intact microsomes corroborate previous results that androstenedione is metabolized by purified PBD-2 to the same major metabolite (16 beta-OH androstenedione) produced by rat PB-B. Dog PBD-2 metabolizes progesterone primarily to the 21-OH metabolite, while metabolism by rat PB-B leads to the formation of the 16 alpha-OH product. On the other hand, upon Ouchterlony double-immunodiffusion analysis, anti-PBD-2 IgG reacts strongly with PB-B but not PB-C, the major rat liver progesterone 21-hydroxylase. The data suggest that dog PBD-2 is a constitutive P450 important in the metabolism of various PCBs and endogenous steroids. Dog PBD-2 and rat PB-B appear to be similar enzymes, yet they differ in their regioselective metabolism of progesterone. 相似文献

Androgen hydroxylation catalysed by Chinese hamster fibroblast SD1 cells, which stably express cytochrome P-450 form PB-4, the rat P450IIB1 gene product, was assessed and compared to that catalysed by purified cytochrome P-450 PB-4 isolated from rat liver. SD1 cell homogenates catalysed the NADPH-dependent hydroxylation of androstenedione and testosterone with a regioselectivity very similar to that purified by P-450 PB-4 (16 beta-hydroxylation/16 alpha-hydroxylation = 6.0-6.8 for androstenedione; 16 beta/16 alpha = 0.9 for testosterone). Homogenates prepared from the parental cell line V79, which does not express detectable levels of P-450 PB-4 or any other cytochrome P-450, exhibited no androgen 16 beta- or 16 alpha-hydroxylase activity. The hydroxylase activities catalysed by the SD1 cell homogenate were selectively and quantitatively inhibited (greater than 90%) by a monoclonal antibody to P-450 PB-4 at a level of antibody (40 pmol of antibody binding sites/mg of SD1 homogenate) that closely corresponds to the P-450 PB-4 content of the cells (48 pmol of PB-4/mg of SD1 homogenate). Fractionation of cell homogenates into cytosol and microsomes revealed that the P-450 PB-4-mediated activities are associated with the membrane fraction. Although the P-450 PB-4-specific content of the SD1 microsomes was 15% of that present in phenobarbital-induced rat liver microsomes, the P-450 PB-4-dependent androstenedione 16 beta-hydroxylase activity of the SD1 membrane fraction was only 2-3% of that present in the liver microsomes. This activity could be stimulated several-fold, however, by supplementation of SD1 microsomes with purified rat NADPH P-450 reductase. These studies establish that a single P-450 gene product (IIB1) can account for the hydroxylation of androgen substrates at multiple sites, and suggest that SD1 cells can be used to assess the catalytic specificity of P-450 PB-4 with other substrates as well. 相似文献

Purification of two isozymes of rat liver microsomal cytochrome P450 with testosterone 7 alpha-hydroxylase activity 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Cytochrome P450a was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity from liver microsomes from immature male Long-Evans rats treated with Aroclor 1254. Rabbit polyclonal antibody raised against cytochrome P450a cross-reacted with cytochromes P450b, P450e, and P450f (which are structurally related to cytochrome P450a). The cross-reacting antibodies were removed by passing anti-P450a over an N-octylamino-Sepharose column containing these heterologous antigens. The immunoabsorbed antibody recognized only a single protein (i.e., cytochrome P450a) in liver microsomes from immature male rats treated with Aroclor 1254 (i.e., the microsomes from which cytochrome P450a was purified). However, the immunoabsorbed antibody recognized three proteins in liver microsomes from mature male rats, as determined by Western immunoblot. As expected, one of these proteins (Mr 48,000) corresponded to cytochrome P450a. The other two proteins did not correspond to cytochromes P450b, P450e, or P450f (as might be expected if the antibody were incompletely immunoabsorbed), nor did they correspond to cytochromes P450c, P450d, P450g, P450h, P450i, P450j, P450k, or P450p. One of these proteins was designated cytochrome P450m (Mr approximately 49,000), the other cytochrome P450n (Mr approximately 50,000). Like cytochrome P450a, cytochrome P450n was present in liver microsomes from both male and female rats. However, whereas cytochrome P450a was detectable in liver microsomes from 1-week-old rats, cytochrome P450n was barely detectable until the rats were at least 3 weeks old. Furthermore, in contrast to cytochrome P450a, the levels of cytochrome P450n did not decline appreciably with age in postpubertal male rats. Cytochrome P450m was detectable only in liver microsomes from postpubertal (greater than 4 week-old) male rats. Cytochromes P450m and P450n were isolated from liver microsomes from mature male rats and purified to remove cytochrome P450a. When reconstituted with NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase and lipid, cytochrome P450n exhibited little testosterone hydroxylase activity, whereas cytochrome P450m catalyzed the 15 alpha-, 18-, 6 beta-, and 7 alpha-hydroxylations of testosterone at 10.8, 4.6, 2.0, and 1.9 nmol/nmol P450/min, respectively. The ability of cytochrome P450m to catalyze the 7 alpha-hydroxylation of testosterone was not due to contamination with cytochrome P450a, which catalyzed this reaction at approximately 25 nmol/nmol P450a/min. Cytochrome P450m also converted testosterone to several minor metabolites, including androstenedione and 15 beta-, 14 alpha-, and 16 alpha-hydroxytestosterone.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Immunoglobulin G fractions (IgGs), isolated from rabbits immunized against hepatic cytochrome P-450 isozymes were used to investigate the immunochemical homology among trout P-450s and between trout and rat P-450s. The antigens used for immunization were five constitutive trout P-450s (LMC1 to LMC5), one beta-naphthoflavone (BNF)-inducible trout P-450 (LM4b), and one phenobarbital-induced rat P4500IIB1 (PB-B). In the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), strong cross-reactivity was observed between anti-LMC2 IgG and P-450 LMC1, and between anti-LMC3 IgG and P-450 LMC4. There was little or no cross-reactivity of anti-LMC5 IgG with other trout P-450s. Trout P-450 LM4b was not recognized by any of the antibodies against constitutive trout P-450s. Antibodies to P-450 LMC1 and P450 LMC2 cross-reacted strongly with rat P450IIB1 and with proteins of PB-induced rat liver microsomes. Rat P450IA1 (BNF-B) did not cross-react with anti-LMC1 or anti-LMC2 IgG. These cross-reactions were essentially confirmed by immunoblot (Western blot) analysis. Western blots of PB-induced rat liver microsomes probed with anti LMC1 revealed two major immunoreactive proteins in the P-450 region, one of which co-migrated with rat P450IIB1. P450IIB1 itself cross-reacted strongly with anti-LMC1 IgG. In control rats, a single protein band cross-reacted poorly with anti-LMC1 IgG. Antibodies to LMC1 and LMC2 did not cross-react with rat P450IA1 in Western blots. The antigenic epitopes in rat P450IIB1 recognized by anti-LMC1 IgG and anti-LMC2 IgG are probably not located at or near the active site of the enzyme since these antibodies did not inhibit benzphetamine N-demethylase activity of P450IIB1 or of PB-induced rat liver microsomes. In general, our results demonstrate: (1) the presence of a significant homology between LMC1 and LMC2, and between constitutive trout P-450 (LMC1) and PB-induced rat P-450 (P450IIB1); and (2) distant homology between constitutive trout P-450s and constitutive rat P-450s or BNF-induced rat P-450s. 相似文献

Protein engineering by cDNA recombination in yeasts: shuffling of mammalian cytochrome P-450 functions 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
We have constructed, in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a mosaic assembly of genes by in vivo recombination of partially homologous sequences. The approach was tested on cDNAs encoding functionally distinct mammalian cytochromes P-450 (P-450). The selection for recombinant cDNAs used the transformation of yeast cells, which required the recircularization of a linearized plasmid by recombination of two partially homologous cDNAs. Libraries of mosaic genes with bipartite or tripartite structures were generated by intramolecular and intermolecular recombination events. The presence of yeast promoter and terminator sequences on the flanking sides of the recombined cDNAs has allowed the synthesis of encoded mosaic proteins. A library of yeast clones producing recombinant mouse P-450 P1 and rabbit P-450 LM4 was screened using functional criteria to identify chimeras with shuffled substrate specificity. Restriction mapping of mosaic genes, biochemical analysis of the synthesized proteins, comparison of chimeric enzymes, and the alignment of sequences with bacterial P-450 camphor hydroxylase of known three-dimensional structure, all suggest that the P-450 P1 amino acid residues 203-238 play a major role in the control of cytochrome activity toward carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Similar approaches to structure-function analysis are believed to be applicable to other protein families. 相似文献

Cytochrome P450p (IIIA1) has been purified from rat liver microsomes by several investigators, but in all cases the purified protein, in contrast to other P450 enzymes, has not been catalytically active when reconstituted with NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase and dilauroylphosphatidylcholine. We now report the successful reconstitution of testosterone oxidation by cytochrome P450p, which was purified from liver microsomes from troleandomycin-treated rats. The rate of testosterone oxidation was greatest when purified cytochrome P450p (50 pmol/ml) was reconstituted with a fivefold molar excess of NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase, an equimolar amount of cytochrome b5, 200 micrograms/ml of a chloroform/methanol extract of microsomal lipid (which could not be substituted with dilauroylphosphatidylcholine), and the nonionic detergent, Emulgen 911 (50 micrograms/ml). Testosterone oxidation by cytochrome P450p was optimal at 200 mM potassium phosphate, pH 7.25. In addition to their final concentration, the order of addition of these components was found to influence the catalytic activity of cytochrome P450p. Under these experimental conditions, purified cytochrome P450p converted testosterone to four major and four minor metabolites at an overall rate of 18 nmol/nmol P450p/min (which is comparable to the rate of testosterone oxidation catalyzed by other purified forms of rat liver cytochrome P450). The four major metabolites were 6 beta-hydroxytestosterone (51%), 2 beta-hydroxytestosterone (18%), 15 beta-hydroxytestosterone (11%) and 6-dehydrotestosterone (10%). The four minor metabolites were 18-hydroxytestosterone (3%), 1 beta-hydroxytestosterone (3%), 16 beta-hydroxytestosterone (2%), and androstenedione (2%). With the exception of 16 beta-hydroxytestosterone and androstenedione, the conversion of testosterone to each of these metabolites was inhibited greater than 85% when liver microsomes from various sources were incubated with rabbit polyclonal antibody against cytochrome P450p. This antibody, which recognized two electrophoretically distinct proteins in liver microsomes from troleandomycin-treated rats, did not inhibit testosterone oxidation by cytochromes P450a, P450b, P450h, or P450m. The catalytic turnover of microsomal cytochrome P450p was estimated from the increase in testosterone oxidation and the apparent increase in cytochrome P450 concentration following treatment of liver microsomes from troleandomycin- or erythromycin-induced rats with potassium ferricyanide (which dissociates the cytochrome P450p-inducer complex). Based on this estimate, the catalytic turnover values for purified, reconstituted cytochrome P450p were 4.2 to 4.6 times greater than the rate catalyzed by microsomal cytochrome P450p. 相似文献

1. Cytochrome P-450 was purified from microsomes of the midgut of the earthworm Lumbricus terrestris up to a maximal specific content of 5.5 nmol P-450/mg protein. 2. At least 3 different cytochromes P-450 with apparent molecular weights of 48,000, 51,000 and 53,000 were identified by SDS-PAGE. 3. Western blot analysis with various polyclonal antibodies did not show structural epitopes common to the cytochromes P-450 of rodents or yeast and L. terrestris. 4. The microsomes contained about 43 pmol P-450/mg protein corresponding to 0.51 nmol P-450/g midgut and 64 pmol P-450/g body weight, respectively, and converted benzyloxyresorufin into resorufin with a Vmax of 2.12 pmol resorufin/min.mg protein and a Km of 770 nM benzyloxyresorufin at 25 degrees C, pH 8.0. 5. The microsomes exhibited a NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase activity of 9.4 nmol cytochrome c/min.mg protein. 6. The apparent molecular weight of the threefold-purified reductase was 63,000. 相似文献

Expression of a human liver cytochrome P-450 protein with tolbutamide hydroxylase activity in Saccharomyces cerevisiae 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The human liver cytochrome P-450 (P-450) proteins responsible for catalyzing the oxidation of mephenytoin, tolbutamide, and hexobarbital are encoded by a multigene family (CYP2C). Although several cDNA clones and proteins related to this "P-450MP" family have been isolated, assignment of specific catalytic activities remains uncertain. Sulfaphenazole was found to inhibit tolbutamide hydroxylation to a greater extent than mephenytoin or hexobarbital hydroxylation. The inhibition by sulfaphenazole was competitive for tolbutamide and hexobarbital hydroxylation but with much different Ki values (5 vs 480 microM, respectively). Inhibition of mephenytoin hydroxylase was not competitive. The results suggest that different P-450 proteins in the P450MP family may be involved in the metabolism of these compounds. A cDNA clone (MP-8) related to the P-450MP family, isolated from a bacteriophage lambda gt11 human liver library, was expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by using the pAAH5 expression vector. Yeast transformed with pAAH5 containing the MP-8 sequence (pAAH5/MP-8) showed a ferrous-CO spectrum typical of the P-450 proteins. Immunoblotting with anti-P450MP revealed that pAAH5/MP-8 microsomes contained a protein with an Mr similar to that of P-450MP-1 (approximately 48,000) that was not present in microsomes from yeast transformed with pAAH5 alone (1.7 X 10(4) molecules of the expressed P-450 per cell). Microsomes from pAAH5/MP-8 contained no detectable mephenytoin 4'-hydroxylase activity but were more active in tolbutamide hydroxylation, on a nanomoles of P-450 basis, than human liver microsomes. The pAAH5/MP-8 microsomes also contained hexobarbital 3'-hydroxylase activity, although the enrichment compared to liver microsomes was not great with respect to the tolbutamide hydroxylase activity.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Purification and characterization of two unique forms of cytochrome P-450 from rabbit nasal microsomes 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Two forms of cytochrome P-450, designated P-450NMa and P-450NMb, were purified to electrophoretic homogeneity from rabbit nasal microsomes. The purified cytochromes, which contained 14-16 nmol of P-450/mg of protein, exhibited apparent monomeric molecular weights of 49,500 and 51,000, respectively. As indicated by several criteria, including the amino acid composition, absorption spectra, and peptide maps, the two nasal forms of P-450 are distinct from each other. Furthermore, as judged by the NH2-terminal amino acid sequences, they are distinct from all other P-450 cytochromes described to date. In the ferric form, P-450NMa is in the low-spin state, whereas P-450NMb is predominantly in the high-spin state. When reconstituted with NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase and phospholipid, P-450NMa is very active in the oxidation of ethanol as well as several nasal procarcinogens, including the N-deethylation of N-nitrosodiethylamine, the O-deethylation of phenacetin, and the N-demethylation of hexamethyl-phosphoramide. P-450NMb also metabolizes these substrates, but at lower rates. Both nasal forms are also active with testosterone, with P-450NMa oxidizing the substrate in the 17-position to give androstenedione and P-450NMb catalyzing hydroxylation in the 15 alpha-, 16 alpha-, and 19-positions. The two cytochromes represent the major portion of the total P-450 in nasal microsomes, but the corresponding forms could not be detected in hepatic microsomes. 相似文献

A cytochrome P450 called PBD-1 isolated from liver microsomes of an adult male Beagle dog treated with phenobarbital (PB) is structurally and functionally similar to members of the P450IIIA gene subfamily in rat and human liver microsomes. The sequence of the first 28 amino-terminal residues of PBD-1 is identical in 15 and 20 positions, respectively, to the P450IIIA forms P450p from rat and P450NF (and HLp) from human. Upon immunoblot analysis, anti-PBD-1 IgG recognizes PCNa (P450p) and PCNb (PB/PCN-E) from rat, P450NF from human, and two proteins in liver microsomes from both untreated and PB-treated dogs. Similarly, anti-PCNb IgG cross-reacts with PBD-1 and with at least one protein in microsomes from untreated dogs and two proteins in microsomes from PB-treated dogs. P450IIIA-form marker steroid 6 beta-hydroxylase activities increase 2.5-fold upon PB-treatment of dogs and are selectively inhibited by anti-PBD-1 IgG. NADPH-dependent triacetyloleandomycin (TAO) complex formation and erythromycin demethylase, also marker activities for P450IIIA forms from rats and humans, increase 4- and 5-fold in dog liver microsomes upon PB treatment, whereas immunochemically reactive PBD-1 is induced 3-fold. In microsomes from PB-treated dogs, 5 mg anti-PBD-1 IgG/nmol P450 inhibits greater than 75 and 50% of TAO complex formation and erythromycin demethylase activity, respectively. TAO complex formation is not inhibited by chloramphenicol, a selective inhibitor of the major PB-inducible dog liver cytochrome P450, PBD-2. These data suggest that PBD-1 or another immunochemically related form is responsible for a major portion of macrolide antibiotic metabolism by microsomes from PB-treated dogs and for steroid 6 beta-hydroxylation by microsomes from both untreated and PB-treated dogs. Major species differences were noted, however, in the apparent Km for 6 beta-hydroxylation of androstenedione by liver microsomes from untreated rats (24 microM), humans (380 microM), and untreated dogs (4700 microM). 相似文献

Administration of pregnenolone-16 alpha-carbonitrile (PCN) to adult female rats caused a 2-fold increase in total liver microsomal cytochrome P-450 along with 5-7-fold increases in four in vitro monooxygenase activities considered diagnostic for the major PCN-inducible cytochrome P-450 isozyme. However, upon administration of chloramphenicol to PCN-treated rats, these monooxygenase activities could be resolved into three groups. Thus, the ability of the microsomes to convert triacetyloleandomycin to a metabolite that forms a spectral complex with the reduced heme iron was decreased by 80% by chloramphenicol, whereas only a 50% decrease was observed in the rate of conversion of (R)-warfarin to its 9,10-dehydro metabolite and in the rate of 6 beta-hydroxylation of androstenedione. More strikingly, the 10-hydroxylation of (R)-warfarin was actually enhanced 2-fold by the chloramphenicol treatment. Fractionation studies were carried out on liver microsomes from PCN-treated adult male rats, and two highly purified cytochromes P-450, referred to as PCNa and PCNb, were recovered. PCNb was found to be identical in the sequence of the first 15 amino acid residues with a PCN-inducible isozyme, the complete amino acid sequence of which has recently been deduced in another laboratory [Gonzalez, F. J., Nebert, D. W., Hardwick, J. P., & Kasper, C. B. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 7435-7441]. The other isozyme, PCNa, differed in amino acid sequence in three of the first 15 positions from PCNb. Upon immunoblot analysis, polyclonal antibodies raised to PCNb also recognized PCNa. Thus, the PCN-inducible family of rat liver cytochrome P-450 comprises at least two separate proteins. 相似文献

In intact rats, ethanol treatment has been associated with increases in hepatic levels of both P450IIB1/2 and P450IIE. When rat hepatocytes were cultured on an extracellular tumor matrix (Matrigel), exposure to ethanol from 48 to 96 h in culture resulted in increases in cytochromes P450IIE, IIB1/2, and IIIA. Cytochrome P450IIE was detected immunologically and enzymatically, using two activities associated with cytochrome P450IIE, p-nitrophenol hydroxylation, and acetaminophen activation to a metabolite that binds to glutathione. The content of cytochrome P450IIE in freshly isolated cells decreased when the cells were placed in culture. Exposure of the cultured hepatocytes to ethanol from 48 to 96 h after inoculation resulted in an increase in cytochrome P450IIE compared to untreated cultured cells. In addition, in culture, the amount of enzymatically active protein after ethanol treatment was equal to that in hepatocytes freshly isolated from intact animals. Ethanol treatment resulted in increases in cytochrome P450IIB1/2 compared to untreated cells, as shown immunologically and by increased benzyloxyresorufin dealkylase activity. However, phenobarbital induced cytochrome P450IIB1/2 to higher levels, compared to ethanol. Ethanol and phenobarbital treatments both increased P450IIIA, as determined immunologically and by the amount of propoxycoumarin depropylase activity that is inhibited by triacetyloleandomycin. However, the amount of P450IIIA increased after ethanol treatment was less than that increased after treatment with dexamethasone in these cells. The ethanol-mediated increases in all four forms of cytochrome P450 in culture suggest that these increases in the intact animal result from direct effects of ethanol on the liver. 相似文献

Diethylstilbestrol (DES) or catecholestrogens are metabolized by microsomal enzymes to quinones, DES Q or catecholestrogen quinones, respectively, which have been shown to bind covalently to DNA and to undergo redox cycling. The isoforms of cytochrome P450 catalyzing this oxidation of estrogens to genotoxic intermediates were not known and have been identified in this study by (a) using microsomes of rats treated with various inducers of cytochrome P450; (b) using purified cytochrome P450 isoforms; and (c) examining the peroxide cofactor concentrations necessary for this oxidation by microsomes or pure isoenzymes. The highest rate of oxidation of DES to DES Q was obtained using beta-naphthoflavone-induced microsomes (14.0 nmol DES Q/mg protein/min) or cytochrome P450 IA1 (6.4 pmol DES Q/min/pmol P450). Isosafrole-induced microsomes or cytochrome P450 IA2 oxidized DES to quinone at one-third or one-fifth of that rate, respectively. Low or negligible rates of oxidation were measured when oxidations were catalyzed by microsomal rat liver enzymes induced by phenobarbital, ethanol, or pregnenolone-16 alpha-carbonitrile or by pure cytochromes P450 IIB1, IIB4, IIC3, IIC6, IIE1, IIE2, IIG1, or IIIA6. Cytochrome P450 IA1 also catalyzed the oxidation of 2- or 4-hydroxyestradiol to their corresponding quinones. The beta-naphthoflavone-induced microsomes and cytochrome P450 IA1 had the highest "affinity" for cumene hydroperoxide cofactor (Km = 77 microM). Cofactor concentrations above 250 microM resulted in decreased rates of oxidation. The other cytochrome P450 isoforms required much higher cofactor concentrations and were not inactivated at high cofactor concentrations. The data demonstrate that beta-naphthoflavone-inducible cytochrome P450 IA family enzymes catalyze most efficiently the oxidation of estrogenic hydroquinones to corresponding quinones. This oxidation may represent a detoxification pathway to keep organic hydroperoxides at minimal concentrations. The resulting quinone metabolites may be detoxified by other pathways. However, in cells with decreased detoxifying enzyme activities, quinones metabolites may accumulate and initiate carcinogenesis or cell death by covalent arylation of DNA or proteins. 相似文献
