Rotational diffusion of cytochrome oxidase in the inner membrane of rat liver mitochondria was measured by detecting the decay of absorption anisotropy after photolysis of the heme a3.CO complex by a vertically polarized laser flash. As in previous experiments with beef heart mitochondria (Kawato, S., Sigel, E., Carafoli, E., and Cherry, R. J. (1980) J. Biol. Chem. 255, 5508-5510), co-existence of rotating cytochrome oxidase (mean rotational relaxation time, phi, of 700 to 1400 microseconds) and immobilized cytochrome oxidase (phi greater than 20 ms) was observed in mitochondria and mitoplasts. The effect of lipid/protein ratio by weight (L/P) on the relative proportions of mobile and immobile cytochrome oxidase was investigated following the fusion of soybean phospholipid vesicles with mitoplasts. The fusion procedure yielded four separate fractions upon sucrose density gradient centrifugation with L/P as follows: 0.3 in Pellet, 0.7 in Band 3, 1.5 in Band 2, and 3.0 in Band 1. The percentage of rotationally mobile cytochrome oxidase (phi = 700 to 1000 microseconds) in each of the different bands was found to be 16% in Pellet, 25% in Band 3, 47% in Band 2, and 76% in Band 1 at 37 degrees C. The dependence of the amount of mobile cytochrome oxidase on L/P indicates that the fraction of aggregated protein progressively decreases with decreasing concentration of proteins in the membrane. Thus, the large immobile fraction of cytochrome oxidase in mitochondrial inner membranes can be explained by nonspecific protein aggregation which is a consequence of the low L/P. The decrease in the mobile fraction in Pellet compared with mitoplasts was shown to be due to the pH 6.5 incubation used for fusion. 相似文献

Purified rat liver microsomal cytochrome P-450 and NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase were co-reconstituted in phosphatidylcholine-phosphatidylethanolamine-phosphatidylserine vesicles using a cholate dialysis technique. The co-reconstitution of the enzymes was demonstrated in proteoliposomes fractionated by centrifugation in a glycerol gradient. The proteoliposomes catalyzed the N-demethylation of a variety of substrates. Rotational diffusion of cytochrome P-450 was measured by detecting the decay of absorption anisotropy r(t), after photolysis of the heme.CO complex by a vertically polarized laser flash. The rotational mobility of cytochrome P-450, when reconstituted alone, was found to be dependent on the lipid to protein ratio by weight (L/P450) (Kawato, S., Gut, J., Cherry, R. J., Winterhalter, K. H., and Richter, C. (1982) J. Biol. Chem. 257, 7023-7029). About 35% of cytochrome P-450 was immobilized and the rest was rotating with a mean rotational relaxation time phi 1 of about 95 mus in L/P450 = 1 vesicle. In L/P450 = 10 vesicles, about 10% of P-450 was immobile and the rest was rotating with phi 1 congruent to 55 mus. Co-reconstitution of equimolar amounts of NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase into the above vesicles results in completely mobile cytochrome P-450 with a phi 1 congruent to 40 mus. Only a small decrease in the immobile fraction of cytochrome P-450 is observed when the molar ratio of cytochrome P-450 to the reductase is 5. The results suggest the formation of a monomolecular 1:1 complex between cytochrome P-450 and NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase in the liposomes. 相似文献

A fusion protein of rat liver CYP1A1 with NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase was expressed genetically in yeast microsomal membranes. This flavo-cytochrome is active in 6-hydroxylation of zoxazolamine. Rotational diffusion of the fusion protein was examined by observing the flash-induced absorption anisotropy r(t) of the P450.CO complex. Theoretical analysis of r(t) was performed based on a "rotation-about-membrane normal" model. The absorption anisotropy decayed within 2 ms to a time-independent value r(3). Forty percent of the fusion protein rotated with a rotational relaxation time phi of 1.35 ms. Treatment with high salt increased the mobile population of the fusion protein to 62% with phi = 0.96 ms. The mobile population of the fusion protein is close to that of CYP1A1 coexpressed with the P450 reductase and greater than that of CYP1A1 alone [Iwase et al. (1991) Biochemistry 30, 8347-8351]. The large mobile population of the fusion protein provides evidence that CYP1A1 is mobilized by forming associations with P450 reductase in microsomal membranes. 相似文献

Effect of drug-induction on the rotation of cytochrome P-450 and on lipid fluidity in rat liver microsomes was examined. Rotational diffusion of cytochrome P-450 was examined by observing the decay of absorption anisotropy, r(t), after photolysis of the heme.CO complex by a vertically polarized laser flash. Analysis of r(t) was based on a "rotation-about-membrane normal" model. Microsomal lipid fluidity was measured by observing fluorescence anisotropy of DPH incorporated in the lipid bilayer. The absorption anisotropy decayed within 2 ms to a time-independent value. Rotational diffusion of cytochrome P-450 was dependent on the drug-induction with PB, MC, and PCB when compared with non-induced CON-microsomes. The observed values for the normalized time-independent anisotropy r(infinity)/r(0) are r(infinity)/r(0) = 0.41 (CON-microsomes), 0.54 (PB-microsomes), 0.52 (MC-microsomes), and 0.57 (PCB-microsomes). The average rotational relaxation time phi = 580-690 microseconds was almost unchanged over all microsomes presently examined. A significantly high value of r(infinity)/r(0) = 0.41-0.57 implies the co-existence of mobile and immobile populations of cytochrome P-450. Based on the assumption that the heme tilts about 55 degrees from the membrane plane for all species of P-450s besides P-450PB, 59% (CON-microsomes), 46% (PB-microsomes), 48% (MC-microsomes), and 43% (PCB-microsomes), respectively, of the cytochrome P-450 in microsomes is calculated to be mobile. Upon drug-induction the microsomal membrane was fluidized to some extent as judged by the steady-state fluorescence anisotropy of 0.156 for CON-microsomes and 0.139-0.148 for drug-induced microsomes.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Purified adrenocortical microsomal cytochromes P-45017 alpha,lyase and P-450C21 were reconstituted with and without NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase in phosphatidylcholine-phosphatidylethanolamine-phosphatidylserine vesicles at a lipid to P-450 ratio of 35 (w/w) by cholate dialysis procedures. Trypsinolysis revealed that a considerable part of each P-450 molecule is deeply embedded in the lipid bilayer, on the basis of the observation of no detectable digestion for P-45017 alpha,lyase and the proteolysis-resistant membrane-bound heavy fragments for P-450C21. Rotational diffusion was measured in proteoliposomes and adrenocortical microsomes by observing the decay of absorption anisotropy, r(t), after photolysis of the heme-CO complex. Analysis of r(t) was based on a "rotation-about-membrane normal" model. The absorption anisotropy decayed within 1-2 ms to a time-independent value r3. Coexistence of a mobile population with an average rotational relaxation time phi of 138-577 microseconds and immobile (phi > or = 20 ms) populations of cytochrome P-450 was observed in both phospholipid vesicles and microsomes. Different tilt angles of the heme plane from the membrane plane were determined in proteoliposomes to be either 47 degrees or 63 degrees for P-45017 alpha,lyase from [r3/r(0)]min = 0.04 and either 38 degrees or 78 degrees for P-450C21 from [r3/r(0)]min = 0.19, when these P-450s were completely mobilized by incubation with 730 mM NaCl. Very different interactions with the reductase have been observed for the two P-450s in proteoliposomes. In the presence of the reductase, the mobile population of cytochrome P-450C21 was increased significantly from 79% to 96% due to dissociation of P-450 oligomers.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Rat liver cytochrome P-450IA1 and/or yeast NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase was expressed genetically in yeast microsomes. The ratio of P-450IA1 to the reductase was about 17:1 and 1:2 without and with coexpression of the reductase, respectively. Rotational diffusion of P-450IA1 was examined by observing the flash-induced absorption anisotropy, r(t), of the heme.CO complex. In only P-450IA1-expressed microsomes, 28% of P-450IA1 was rotating with a rotational relaxation time (phi) of about 1200 microseconds. The mobile population was increased to 43% by the presence of the coexpressed reductase, while phi was not changed significantly. Increased concentration of KCl from 0 to 1000 mM caused considerable mobilization of P-450IA1. The results demonstrate a proper incorporation of P-450IA1 molecules into yeast microsomal membranes. The significant mobilization of P-450IA1 by the presence of reductase suggests a possible transient association of P-450IA1 with the reductase. 相似文献

The reconstitution of microsomal membrane monooxygenase system with variable contents of the hydroxylating chain enzymatic components was carried out. It was found that during self-assembly of microsomal membranes solubilized with 4% sodium cholate and gel filtration through Sephadex LH-20 in the presence of isolated microsomal enzymes, two forms of cytochrome P-450, i. e. phenobarbital- and 3-methylcholantrene-induced ones, and NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase, the exogenous enzymes are incorporated into the microsomal membrane matrices of control and methyl-cholantrene-treated animals. In the membranes reconstituted from the microsomes of the methylcholantrene-induced animals the catalytic activity of cytochrome P-448 in the metabolism of benz(a)pyrene at varying cytochrome P-448 and NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase contents were investigated. 相似文献

Rotation and interaction with epoxide hydrase of cytochrome P-450 in proteoliposomes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Purified rat liver cytochrome P-450MC or P-450PB was co-reconstituted with epoxide hydrase in liposomal vesicles made of phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidylserine at a lipid to protein weight ratio of 5 by the cholate dialysis procedure. Rotational diffusion of the cytochromes was measured by observing the decay of absorption anisotropy, r(t), after photolysis of the heme.CO complex by a vertically polarized laser flash. Analysis of r(t) was based on a "rotation-about-membrane-normal" model. The measurements were used to investigate interactions of cytochrome P-450MC or P-450PB with epoxide hydrase. Different rotational mobilities of the two cytochromes were observed. The amount of mobile molecules was 78% for cytochrome P-450MC and 91% for P-450PB, and the rest was immobile within the experimental time range of 1 ms. In the presence of epoxide hydrase 85% of cytochrome P-450MC and 96% of P-450PB were mobile. Cross-linking of epoxide hydrase by anti-epoxide hydrase antibodies resulted in a drastic immobilization of the cytochromes, reducing the mobile population to 49% for P-450MC and to 60% for P-450PB. The rotational relaxation times phi of the mobile populations ranged from 210 to 283 microseconds. These results imply that both cytochromes P-450MC and P-450PB transiently associate with epoxide hydrase in liposomal membranes. Further analysis of the data showed that the angle between the heme plane of P-450MC and the membrane is 48 degrees or 62 degrees, different from the value of 55 degrees reported previously for P-450PB (Gut, J., Richter, C., Cherry, R. J., Winterhalter, K. H., and Kawato, S. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 8588-8594). 相似文献

The regularities of changes in the functional activity of the microsomal monooxygenase system reconstituted by self-assembly from intact rat liver microsomes solubilized with 4% sodium cholate were studied at variable levels of NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase and the 3-methylcholanthrene-induced form of cytochrome P-450. Using antibodies against cytochrome P-448, the role of cytochrome P-448 in the overall reaction of benzopyrene hydroxylation induced in the microsomal membrane by a set of molecular forms of cytochrome P-450 was investigated. The effect of NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase and cytochrome P-448 incorporation into reconstituted microsomal membranes on benzpyrene metabolism suggests that in intact microsomal membranes benzopyrene metabolism induced by different forms of cytochrome P-450, with the exception of P-448, is limited by reductase is not the limiting component; however, cytochrome P-448 reveals its maximum activity at the cytochrome to reductase optimal molar ratio of 5:1; above this level, the catalytic activity of cytochrome P-448 is lowered. 相似文献

NADH-dependent 3,4-benzpyrene hydroxylase activity was detected in the purified mitochondrial outer membrane fraction from the livers of rats treated with 3-methylcholanthrene. The specific activity in the outer membrane fraction is nearly equal to that of microsomes, a level too high to be accounted for only by the microsomal contamination. On the other hand, the NADPH-dependent 3,4-benzpyrene hydroxylase activity in the outer membrane fraction is about 50% of that of microsomes. The ratio of the specific activity of NADPH- to NADH-dependent 3,4-benzpyrene hydroxylase in microsomal fraction was about 3.5, while that of the outer membrane fraction was about 1.5. Moreover, it was found that NADH-dependent 3,4-benzpyrene hydroxylase activity in mitochondrial outer membrane from control rat liver was cyanide-insensitive, while that in microsomes was cyanide-sensitive. These results suggest the presence in the mitochondrial outer membrane fraction of aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase activity which uses as electron donor NADH nearly to the same extent as NADPH. The hydroxylase system is composed of cyanide-insensitive cytochrome P-450 and is inducible markedly by 3-methylcholanthrene treatment. The probable electron transfer pathways in the mitochondrial outer membrane cytochrome P-450 oxidase system are discussed. 相似文献

Cytochrome P450 associated with free hepatic polyribosomes 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
On phenobarbital administration to rabbits, the concentration of hepatic cytochrome P450, an unstable constitutive microsomal enzyme, increased sharply in the heavy fraction of the free polyribosomes. The fraction had following properties: (1) its cytochrome P450 content was unusually high; the content was much lower in the lighter polyribosomes, the cytochrome P450 could not be extracted from post-mitochondrial supernatant solutions or microsomes with polyribosomes. (2) The fraction was membrane-free. (3) The fraction had RNA-to-protein ratios characteristic of polyribosomes; (4) it had characteristically low phospholipid content; (5) its sucrose density-gradient centrifugation profiles were characteristic of heavy polyribosomes, not microsomes. (6) The heavy polyribosomal fraction failed to catalyze mixed-function oxidations dependent on cytochrome P450, and the system was not activated by mixed mono- and dilaurylphosphatidylcholine. (7) Cytochrome P450 was released from the fraction by ribonuclease, and (8) cytochrome P450 was partially released from the fraction by puromycin. 相似文献

To solve the problem of localization of the active center of cytochrome P-450 in microsomal membranes, new bifunctional compounds (I-IV), which contain pyridine radical, aliphatic chain of variable length and diphosphonic acid ("floating" molecules) have been applied. These compounds inhibit oxidation and binding of the substrates of cytochrome P-450 (aminopyrine and aniline), inhibition being of a competitive character. Measurements of distribution coefficients between water and membranes of microsomes and liposomes from egg phosphatidylcholine evidence that the microsomal proteins are necessary for providing effective interaction of I-IV with microsomal membrane. The 1H-NMR method has demonstrated compounds to be incorporated into lipid bilayer so that the non-polar part is in the inner membrane volume. The results obtained confirm our previous conclusion (Krainev A.G., Weiner L.M., Alferyev I.S., Slynko N.M. (1985) Biochim. Biophys. Acta, 818, 96-104) about localization of the active center of microsomal cytochrome P-450 at the depth of approximately 18 A from the hydrophilic surface of a membrane. 相似文献

The aromatase system associated with the mitochondrial fraction of human term placenta, present at 35–50% the specific activity of the microsomal enzyme, is substantially the same as the microsomal enzyme as determined by the following: 1) The rate of aromatization of androstenedione, 19-nortestosterone, and 16α-hydroxytestosterone in mitochondria was a nearly constant proportion of the microsomal rate; 2) Sensitivity to carbon monoxide was the same; 3) The magnitude of cytochrome P-450 Type I spectral interactions with androgen substrates was a constant proportion in mitochondria and microsomes; 4) Sensitivity to an antibody raised against hepatic microsomal NADPH-cytochrome c reductase was the same. When inner and outer mitochondrial membrane subfractions were prepared, the predominant aromatase activity was associated with the outer membrane preparation. This aromatase activity could not be accounted for by microsomal contamination as determined by inosine diphosphatase activity, a microsomal marker. After correction, the rate of aromatization in the outer membrane preparation was almost six times that in the inner membranes and three times that of the whole mitochondrial fraction 相似文献

Detection of phenobarbital-induced cytochrome P-450 in rat hepatic microsomes using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The major phenobarbital-inducible form of cytochrome P-450 (cytochrome P-450 PB) was purified to homogeneity from rat liver microsomes and rabbit antibodies prepared against the purified enzyme. Using these antibodies, an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed for the detection of cytochrome P-450 PB in microsomes which was sensitive at the nanogram level. The content of cytochrome P-450 PB was determined in hepatic microsomes from rats treated with various xenobiotics. Phenobarbital and Aroclor 1254 pretreatments resulted in several-fold increases in immunoreactive cytochrome P-450 PB over control levels. ELISA measurements of cytochrome P-450 PB were also carried out over a 48-h time course of phenobarbital induction in liver microsomes. Significant increases over control levels were seen at 16 h and beyond. Measurements of ELISA-detectable cytochrome P-450 PB were made in microsomes following the administration of CCl4 to phenobarbital-pretreated rats. Immunoreactive cytochrome P-450 PB was observed to decrease less rapidly than the spectrally detectable enzyme in the microsomal membranes. Inhibition of heme synthesis was carried out by the administration of 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole (AT) to rats. Concomitant pretreatment with phenobarbital and AT resulted in levels of ELISA-detectable cytochrome P-450 PB which were significantly increased over control levels, while spectrally detectable levels of total holoenzyme remained unchanged. These results support the idea that this cytochrome P-450 may exist, at least partly, in the microsomal membrane in an inactive or apoprotein form. 相似文献

The cytochrome P-450 content of nuclear membranes isolated from the livers of male Sprague-Dawley rats fed a semipurified diet containing 0.05% w/w 2-acetylaminofluorene (AAF) for 3 weeks, was only about 20% of the values in control rats fed the same diet devoid of AAF. This effect was apparent after only 1 week of AAF treatment and persisted in nuclear membranes from isolated hyperplastic nodules (HPN) generated by 4 cycles of interrupted AAF-feeding. The microsomal cytochrome P-450 content, on the other hand, remained at control levels after 1 week of AAF treatment, and it was only slightly decreased after 3 weeks. In contrast, microsomes from HPN generated by prolonged AAF treatment had markedly decreased amounts of cytochrome P-450. The AAF treatment also caused changes in cholesterol epoxide hydrolase activity, which paralleled those observed for cytochrome P-450 content. Nuclear membranes from livers of rats fed AAF for 3 weeks, and from isolated HPN, had only 30-50% of the cholesterol epoxide hydrolase activity present in controls, whereas the microsomal enzyme activity remained at control levels after 3 weeks of AAF feeding but was 50% depressed in microsomes from HPN. The selective loss of cytochrome P-450 and of cholesterol epoxide hydrolase in hepatic nuclear membrane, but not in microsomes, of rats fed AAF for 3 weeks suggests independent control for these enzymes in these two membrane fractions. Cytochrome P-450 plays a role both in the activation of AAF (N-hydroxylation) as well as in its detoxification (ring hydroxylation) whereas cholesterol epoxide hydrolase initiates the detoxification of cholesterol epoxide. Therefore, our findings suggest the hypothesis that AAF treatment causes an early loss, at the surface of the nucleus, of the last line of defense for detoxification of transforming or promoting metabolites generated by microsomal activation of natural substances such as cholesterol and of xenobiotics such as AAF. 相似文献

Hydrocarbons of different structures interact with microsomal and solubilized cytochrome P-450 from liver of phenobarbital-pretreated rats forming a high spin enzyme-substrate type complex. The affinity of cytochrome P-450 for hydrocarbons increases with increasing lipophilicity independently of the chemical structure. The binding capacity of microsomal P-450 for aliphatic hydrocarbons is generally higher than for aromates. Mutual influence in binding of two different hydrocarbons by microsomal P-450 is stronger among aromatic than among aliphatic hydrocarbons; in both cases it appears to be effected rather by specific interaction of both substances with the binding site than by a nonspecific influence on the microsomal membrane. Only one fraction of low spin form of solubilized cytochrome P-450 from rat liver interacts with hydrocarbons. The binding capacity for aromatic and aliphatic substances corresponds to that found in microsomes. The affinity for the most lipiphilic substrate, perhydrophenanthrene, is equal in microsomal and solubilized preparation; with decreasing lipophilicity the affinity of solubilized P-450 decreases faster than in microsomes. The LM2 fraction of cytochrome P-450 from phenobarbital-pretreated rabbits interacts only with aliphatic hydrocarbons with wide variation of the binding capacity. The affinity is generally one order of magnitude lower than in microsomes. Active fractions of solubilized P-450 from both species are rapidly converted to P-420 by dithionite. The extent of this conversion is strongly reduced by saturation with substrate. 相似文献

The transverse distribution of enzyme proteins and phospholipids within microsomal membranes was studied by analyzing membrane composition after treatment with proteases and phospholipases. Upon trypsin treatment of closed microsomal vesicles, NADH- and NADPH-cytochrome c reductases as well as cytochrome b5 were solubilized or inactivated, while cytochrome P-450 was partially inactivated. When microsomes were exposed to a concentration of deoxycholate which makes them permeable to macromolecules but does not disrupt the membrane, the detergent alone was sufficient to release four enzymes: nucleoside diphosphatase, esterase, beta-glucuronidase, and a portion of the DT-diaphorase. Introduction of trypsin into the vesicle lumen inactivated glucose-6-phosphatase completely and cytochrome P-450 partially. The rest of this cytochrome, ATPase, AMPase, UDP-glucuronyltransferase, and the remaining 50% of DT-diaphorase activity were not affected by proteolysis from either side of the membrane. Phospholipase A treatment of intact microsomes in the presence of albumin hydrolyzed all of the phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine, and 55% of the phosphatidylcholine. From this observation, it was concluded that these lipids are localized in the outer half of the bilayer of the microsomal membrane; Phosphatidylinositol, 45% of the phosphatidylcholine, and sphingomyelin are tentatively assigned to the inner half of this bilayer. It appears that the various enzyme proteins and phospholipids of the microsomal membrane display an asymmetric distribution in the transverse plane. 相似文献

A non-linear decrease in the activity of cytochrome P450-dependent (P450) ethoxyphenoxazone deethylase was observed with intact rat liver and lung microsomal fractions, although all components of the P450 complex were present. Activity was restored by adding pre-heated microsomal membranes or synthetic phospholipid, or by concentrating the diluted preparation. Aqueous dilution of the microsomal fraction resulted in altered Vmax values, whereas Km(app) values (0.2 microM) were only slightly changed. The results are discussed in terms of the relationship between cytochrome P450 action in model systems and in native microsomal membranes. 相似文献

Monooxygenase activity in microsomes from the LPR strain of house fly (Musca domestica L.) was inhibited by anti-P450lpr, and antiserum specific for house fly cytochrome P450lpr. Anti-P450lpr did not inhibit house fly cytochrome P450 reductase or rat cytochrome P450 monooxygenase assays, consistent with specific inhibition of P450lpr. Anti-P450lpr inhibited the ability of cytochrome P450 reductase to reduce carbon monoxide treated LPR microsomal cytochrome P450, up to 49% of the total, showing that inhibition of cytochrome P450 reduction is the major mechanism of inhibition. Anti-P450lpr inhibited 98% of methoxyresorufin-O-demethylase activity and all the benzo(a)pyrene hydroxylase activity in LPR microsomes, but none of the pentoxyresorufin-O-dealkylase activity. The antiserum partially inhibited ethoxyresorufin-O-dealkylase and ethoxycoumarin-O-dealkylase activity. These results demonstrate that methoxyresourfin-O-demethylase activity and benzo(a)pyrene hydroxylase activity are characteristic substrates for P450lpr activity in the LPR strain of house fly. 相似文献

Evidence is presented about the dual location of NADPH-cytochrome c reductase in mitochondrial outer membranes as well as in microsomes, from pig heart. A high specific activity, was found in both fractions, even after their purification by washing, digitonin treatments, or passages on sucrose gradients. A large fraction of the total activity was associated with both mitochondria and microsomes. Mitochondrial outer membrane differs from microsomes by a low choline phosphotransferase activity and the absence of cytochrome P-450. The properties of mitochondrial and microsomal rotenone-insensitive NADH- and NADPH-cytochrome c reductases were studied. In microsomes, both activities have the same optimum pH (8.5) ; in contrast, in mitochondria they have a different one. The Km-NADPH were always much higher than those for NADH. In mitochondria the Km for NAD(P)H were dependent on cytochrome c concentration. The results show that the rotenone-insensitive NADH- and NADPH-cytochrome c reductases of mitochondria and microsomes have quite different behavior and do not appear to be supported by the same enzyme. 相似文献
