Rat liver microsomes catalyzed the oxidation of glycerol to a Nash-reactive material in a time- and protein-dependent manner. Omission of the glycerol or the microsomes or any of the components of the NADPH-generating system resulted in almost a complete loss of product formation. Apparent Km and Vmax values for glycerol oxidation were about 18 mM and 2.5 nmol formaldehyde per min per mg microsomal protein. Carbon monoxide inhibited glycerol oxidation indicating a requirement for cytochrome P-450. That the Nash-reactive material was formaldehyde was validated by a glutathione-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase positive reaction. These studies indicate that glycerol is not inert when utilized with microsomes or reconstituted mixed function oxidase systems, and that the production of formaldehyde from glycerol may interfere with assays of other substrates which generate formaldehyde as product. 相似文献

Isolation of rat liver microsomes by gel filtration 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
A method was developed for the rapid isolation of liver microsomes by means of gel filtration. Such microsomes were compared to microsomes prepared by conventional centrifugation techniques. Both preparations were of similar composition as regards concentrations and activities of certain microsomal enzymes as well as contamination by other liver cell organelles. The main advantages over conventional techniques are the considerable decrease of time required for isolation of the microsomes, the improved removal of solutes like hemoglobin, the improved suspension stability of the preparation, and that the technique does not require facilities for ultracentrifugation. 相似文献

The composition of rat liver microsomes. The structural proteins of rat liver microsomes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
1. The structural-protein component of microsomal membranes was isolated by three separate methods. Analysis by polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis indicated that the microsomal structural component is made up of a heterogeneous group of proteins. These proteins were further characterized by their phospholipid-binding capacity. The electrophoretic patterns of microsomal structural proteins were found to differ significantly from those of mitochondrial structural proteins. 2. The reticulosomal fraction was also characterized by electrophoresis with reference to total microsomal proteins, microsomal structural proteins and ribosomal proteins. The reticulosomes gave an electrophoretic pattern significantly different from those of the other three preparations examined. It is suggested that reticulosomes consist largely of enzymic proteins of the endoplasmic reticulum. 相似文献

A new method was employed for the purification of cytochrome P-450 from rat liver microsomes. The purified cytochrome was essentially free from possible contaminants and the recovery and degree of purification were high. Although 15% of the original P-450 was recovered through the purification procedure used, only 0.8% of the total original microsomal ethanol oxidation activity was associated with this fraction. Addition of this purified fraction to other fractions isolated did not further stimulate ethanol oxidation. The component of rat liver microsomes that was found most efficient in the oxidation of ethanol was the mixture of catalase and NADPH - cytochrome c - reductase. It is concluded that highly purified cytochrome P-450 by itself does not oxidize ethanol to any appreciable degree. 相似文献

In order to determine whether CCl4, CBrCl3, CBr4 or CHCl3 undergo oxidative metabolism to electrophilic halogens by liver microsomes, they were incubated with liver microsomes from phenobartital pretreated rats in the presence of NADPH and 2,6-dimethylphenol. The analysis of the reaction mixtures by capillary gas chromatography mass spectrometry revealed that 4-chloro-2,6-dimethylphenol was a metabolite of CCl4 and CBrCl3 whereas 4-bromo-2,6-dimethylphenol was a metabolite of CBr4. The formation of the metabolites was significantly decreased when the reactions were conducted with heat denatured microsomes, in the absence of NADPH or under an atmosphere of N2. These results indicate that the chlorines of CBrCl3 and CCl4 and the bromines of CBr4 are oxidatively metabolized by rat liver microsomes to electrophilic and potentially toxic metabolites. 相似文献

The in vitro metabolism of several chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxin congeners (PCDDs) was studied using rat liver microsomes as a source of CYP 1 enzymes. The reactions were kinetically first order in both enzyme and substrate and showed a general trend toward decreasing reactivity with increasing chlorination. Michaelis-Menten kinetics were followed for 1-chlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (1-CDD); the reactivity of the enzyme preparation toward 1-CDD exactly paralleled its activity toward 7-ethoxyresorufin. The unreactive congeners 1,2,3,7,8-pentachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (PeCDD) and 2,2'-dichlorobiphenyl (2,2'-DCB) acted as competitive inhibitors toward 1-CDD, with inhibition constants in the micromolar range, similar to the value of the Michaelis constant of 1-CDD. The inhibitory potency of furafylline, a mechanism-based inhibitor that is selective for CYP 1A2, declined in the order acetanilide (standard) > 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) > 1-CDD. We conclude that 1-CDD and 1,2,3,4-TCDD are oxidized almost exclusively by CYP 1A1, whereas 2,3,7,8-TCDD and 1,2,4,7,8-PeCDD are oxidized mainly by CYP 1A2. 1,2,3,7,8-PeCDD was oxidized too slowly for us to reach any conclusion about the P450 isozyme responsible. 相似文献

Oxidation of 1-O-hexadec-1'-enyl-arachidonoyl glycerophosphocholine (16:0p/20:4-GPC) by hydroxyl radical generated from Cu(II)/H(2)O(2) was found to yield major products corresponding to free carboxylic acids of 5-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid and several 5, 12-dihydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid. These products were characterized by electrospray tandem mass spectrometry based upon characteristic product ion spectra, as well as HPLC retention time. Several products were found to be biologically active in terms of elevating neutrophil intracellular calcium ion concentration. When mixed micelles of 16:0p/20:4-GPC were treated with Cu(II)/H(2)O(2), oxidation of the arachidonate esterified to the plasmalogen glycerophosphocholine lipid resulted in the most abundant products oxidized at carbon-5 of esterified arachidonate, but free carboxylic acid products were not formed. The mechanism of formation of these oxidized products is suggested to involve a cooperation between the sn-1 vinyl ether substituent and the arachidonoyl substituent at sn-2 of the glycerophospholipid to direct oxidation of the arachidonate ester at carbon-5. Since arachidonic acid is found in high abundance within most plasmalogen glycerophospholipids, the susceptibility of plasmalogens to free radical oxidation likely involves concomitant oxidation of the arachidonyl radyl group esterified at the sn-2 position. 相似文献

1. The microsome fraction of rat liver has been fractionated and the ability of the fractions to incorporate ribonucleotides into polyribonucleotides has been studied. Activity was found in the rough-surfaced vesicle (light) fraction and in the free-ribosome fraction and this latter activity has been examined. 2. The free-ribosome fraction contains ribosome monomers, dimers and trimers together with some higher oligomers and ferritin. In addition to catalysing the incorporation of ribonucleotides into acid-insoluble material it contains diesterase activity. It catalyses the incorporation of UMP from UTP, but not UDP, AMP from ATP and CMP from CTP into polyribonucleotide material, and for UTP the product appears to be a homopolymer not more than eight units long attached to the ends of primer polyribonucleotide strands. 3. The activity could not be removed from the free-ribosome fraction by washing or by isolation in the presence of ethylenediaminetetra-acetic acid. 4. Partially hydrolysed polyuridylic acid but not polyadenylic acid could serve as a primer for the incorporation of UMP, but some activity was always associated with an endogenous primer. 5. Analysis of RNA extracted from the free-ribosome fraction after incubation with [3H]UTP showed the presence of 28s, 18s, 5s and transfer RNA types, but no radioactivity was associated with any of these RNA fractions. 相似文献

Myrislignan (1), erythro-(1R,2S)-2-(4-allyl-2,6-dimethoxyphenoxyl)-1-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl) propan-1-ol, is a major acyclic neolignan in seeds of Myristica fragrans. Studies have suggested that myrislignan may deter feeding activity, but little is known about its metabolism. We investigated the biotransformation of myrislignan by rat liver microsomes in vitro. Seven metabolites were produced by liver microsomes from rats pre-treated with sodium phenobarbital. These were identified, using spectroscopic methods, as myrislignanometins A-G (2-8), respectively. 相似文献

Tertiary butyl alcohol has often been used experimentally as a “non-metabolizable” alcohol. In this report, evidence is presented that t-butanol serves as a substrate for rat liver microsomes and that it is oxidatively demethylated to yield formaldehyde. The apparent Km for t-butanol is 30 mM while Vmax is about 5.5 nmol per min per mg microsomal protein. Formaldehyde production is stimulated by azide, which prevents destruction of H2O2 by catalase. Hydroxyl radical scavenging agents, such as benzoate, mannitol, and 2-keto-4-thiomethylbutyrate, suppress formaldehyde production. Therefore, the microsomal reaction pathway appears to involve the interaction of t-butanol with hydroxyl radicals generated from H2O2 by the microsomes. Formaldehyde is also produced when t-butanol is incubated with model hydroxyl radical-generating systems such as the iron-EDTA-stimulated oxidation of xanthine by xanthine oxidase or the iron-EDTA-catalyzed autoxidation of ascorbate. These results indicate that t-butanol cannot be used to distinguish metabolically-linked from non-metabolically-linked actions of ethanol. 相似文献

Lysophosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate has been reported to form ion-conducting channels in artificial membranes. If formed in vivo, mechanisms for its removal from cellular membranes would be required. Thus, possible pathways were explored in rat brain and liver microsomes. Since neither lysophosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate nor lysophosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate were acylated in experiments with [3H]arachidonic acid or [14C]oleoyl CoA, polyphosphoinositides do not participate directly in a deacylation-reacylation cycle as proposed for the postsynthesis enrichment of phosphatidylinositol with arachidonic acid. Similar enrichment in polyphosphoinositides can occur only via the rapid phosphorylation-dephosphorylation cycle linking all three phosphoinositides. Lysophosphatidyl[2-3H]inositol 4,5-bisphosphate and lysophosphatidyl[2-3H]inositol 4-phosphate were rapidly dephosphorylated to 1-acyl-sn-glycero(3)phospho(1)-D-myo-inositol by microsomes from both tissues. Appearance of only trace quantities of radioactive lysophosphatidylinositol monophosphate during the catabolism of lysophosphatidyl[2-3H]inositol 4,5-bisphosphate indicated that the second dephosphorylation step, which was cation independent, was at least as fast as the first step which required Mg2+. In the presence of ATP, CoA, and arachidonic acid, the lysophosphatidylinositol was converted to phosphatidylinositol. This acylation reaction was rate limiting in brain microsomes. Dephosphorylation of lysophosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate was rate limiting in liver microsomes. Neither the lysopolyphosphoinositides nor the lysophosphatidylinositol produced from them in the reactions were degraded by acyl hydrolases or phosphodiesterases in microsomes from either tissue. Therefore, any lysopolyphosphoinositide formed in vivo would probably be removed by dephosphorylation and recycled to phosphatidylinositol. 相似文献
