Electron transfer to rat liver microsomal cytochrome P-450 of 14 alpha-methyl group demethylation of 24,25-dihydrolanosterol (C30-sterol) has been studied with a new radio-high-performance liquid chromatography assay. The monooxygenase is dependent upon NADPH plus oxygen, insensitive to CN-, and sensitive to CO. Microsomal oxidation is also sensitive to trypsin digestion, and reactivation is dependent upon the addition of purified, detergent-solubilized cytochrome P-450 reductase. Electron transport of C-32 sterol demethylation can be fully supported by very low concentrations of NADPH (approximately 10 microM) only in the presence of saturating concentrations of NADH (approximately 200 microM) suggesting involvement of cytochrome b5-dependent electron transfer in addition to the NADPH-supported pathway. The cytochrome P-450 of 14 alpha-demethylation has been solubilized with detergents, resolved chromatographically from cytochrome P-450 reductase and cytochrome b5, and fully active C-32 demethylase reconstituted. Incubation of intact microsomes with NADH and very low concentrations of NADPH described above leads to interruption of demethylation without 14 alpha-methyl group elimination. Under these conditions, C-32 oxidation products of the C30-sterol substrate accumulate at the expense of formation of demethylated, C29-sterol products. This enzymic interruption of C-32 demethylation, accumulation of oxygenated C30-sterols, along with subsequent demethylation of the isolated C30-oxysterols under similar oxidative conditions supports the suggestion that 14 alpha-hydroxymethyl and aldehydic sterols are metabolic intermediates of sterol 14 alpha-demethylation. Only very modest inductions of the constitutive cytochrome P-450 isozyme of 14 alpha-methyl sterol oxidase can be obtained with just 2 out of 12 known, potent inducers of mammalian hepatic cytochrome P-450s. Alternatively, administration of complete adjuvant in mineral oil drastically reduces amounts of total microsomal cytochrome P-450 while activity of 14 alpha-methyl sterol oxidase is not affected dramatically. Thus, as much as 2.5-fold enhancement of C-32 oxidase specific activity is obtained when expressed per unit of cytochrome P-450.  相似文献

Formation of androstadienone or androstadienol, a delta 16-C19-steroid, from progesterone or pregnenolone is catalyzed by the so-called delta 16-C19-steroid synthesizing enzyme in the pig testicular microsomes. The enzyme activity was also present in the testicular microsomes prepared from neonatal pig. The enzyme activity was considerably inhibited by CO, and such cytochrome P-450 inhibitors as SU 8000, SU 10603, and metyrapone. delta 16-C19-Steroid synthesizing enzyme activity was extracted from the testicular microsomes by sodium cholate in potassium phosphate buffer, pH 7.4, containing EDTA and dithiothreitol, and the solubilized enzyme activity was partially purified by DEAE-cellulose column chromatography. It was shown by reconstitution of the enzyme activity that delta 16-C19-steroid synthesizing enzyme is a cytochrome P-450-linked oxygenase system dependent on cytochrome P-450-reductase and cytochrome b5. In particular, cytochrome b5 was an essential component for the activity of delta 16-C19-steroid synthesizing enzyme.  相似文献

An enzymatic assay for delta 8,14-sterol delta 14-reductase, an enzyme involved in sterol biosynthesis, has been developed for the first time in higher plants. The properties of the microsomal enzyme have been established with respect to cofactor requirements, kinetics and substrate specificity. This enzymatic double-bound reduction is thought to proceed through an electrophilic addition mechanism, involving a C14 putative carbonium ion high-energy intermediate. Using this in vitro assay, ammonium and iminium analogues of this cationic intermediate were shown to be potent inhibitors of the reduction reaction. Thus, compounds of the N-alkyl-8-aza-4 alpha,10-dimethyl-trans-decal-3 beta-ol series strongly inhibited sterol reductase (I50 = 0.07 - 4 microM) (I50/Km = 10(-4) - 10(-3), as did the antimycotic agent 15-azasterol (I50 = 0.03 microM); all of these compounds act as reaction-intermediate analogues of the proposed C14 carbonium ion intermediate. Moreover, the in vitro inhibition of the plant sterol reductase by a series of ammonium-ion-containing fungicides was demonstrated. The relative specificity of these different series of inhibitors toward cycloeucalenol-obtusifoliol isomerase, delta 8----delta 7-sterol isomerase and delta 8,14-sterol delta 14-reductase, was directly studied.  相似文献

Hepatic microsomal NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase was solubilized from rabbit liver microsomes in the presence of detergents and purified to homogeneity by column chromatography. The purified reductase had a molecular weight of 78 000 and contained 1 mol each of FAD and FMN per mol of enzyme. On reduction with NADPH in the presence of molecular oxygen, an 02-stable semiquinone containing one flavin free radical per two flavins was formed, in agreement with previous work on purified trypsin-solubilized reductase. The reduction of oxidized enzyme by NADPH, and autoxidation of NADPH-reduced enzyme by air, proceeded by both one-electron equivalent and two-electron equivalent mechanisms. The reductase reduced cytochrome P-450 (from phenobarbital-treated rabbits) and cytochrome P-448 (from 3-methylcholanthrene-treated rabbits). The rate of reduction of cytochrome P-450 increased in the presence of a substrate, benzphetamine, but that of cytochrome P-448 did not.  相似文献

Aromatase cytochrome P-450, which catalyzes the conversion of androgens to estrogens, was purified from human placental microsomes. The enzyme was extracted with sodium cholate, fractionated by ammonium sulfate precipitation, and subjected to column chromatography in the presence of its substrate, androstenedione, and the nonionic detergent, Nonidet P-40. The preparation exhibits a single major band when analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and has a specific content of 11.5 nmol of P-450/mg of protein. The purified enzyme displays spectroscopic properties typical of the ferric and ferrous forms of cytochrome P-450. Full enzymatic activity can be reconstituted with rabbit liver microsomal cytochrome P-450 reductase and Nonidet P-40. Purified aromatase cytochrome P-450 displays catalytic characteristics similar to the enzyme in intact microsomes in the aromatization of androstenedione, 19-hydroxyandrostenedione and 19-oxoandrostenedione. Testosterone and 16 alpha-hydroxytestosterone are aromatized at maximal rates similar to androstenedione, and all substrates exhibit relative affinities corresponding to those observed in microsomes. We have raised rabbit antibodies to the purified enzyme which show considerable specificity and sensitivity on immunoblots.  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

Microsomal delta 7-sterol 5-desaturase of cholesterol biosynthesis is a multienzyme system which catalyzes the introduction of the delta 5-bond into delta 7-cholestenol to form 7-dehydrocholesterol. The detergent-solubilized 5-desaturase has been purified more than 70-fold and resolved from electron carriers and other rat liver microsomal enzymes of sterol biosynthesis by chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel, CM-Sepharose, and immobilized cytochrome b5; the 5-desaturase had not been fully resolved from cytochrom b5 reductase in earlier work. A functional electron transport system for the 5-desaturase has been reconstituted by combining the purified 5-desaturase and electron carriers with egg phosphatidylcholine liposomes. Optimizations of conditions for reconstitution have been obtained; both cytochrome b5 and NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase serve as electron carriers. A pyridine nucleotide-dependent flavoprotein is required and the requirement can be satisfied with either purified cytochrome b5 reductase or cytochrome P-450 reductase. Cyanide and iron-chelators strikingly inhibit the 5-desaturase activity, thus suggesting that 5-desaturase is a metalloenzyme as are other well-characterized cytochrome b5-dependent oxidases. 5-Desaturase is resolved from 4-methyl sterol oxidase activity of cholesterol biosynthesis by chromatography on the immobilized cytochrome b5. This resolution of the two oxidases not only indicates that introduction of the delta 5-bond and oxidation of 4 alpha-methyl groups are catalyzed by different terminal oxidases, but resolution affords enzymes of sufficient purity to carry out reconstitution experiments. A novel assay based on substrate-dependent increments of oxidation of alpha-NADH has been developed for measurement of 5-desaturase activity. Measurement of stoichiometry of 5-desaturase demonstrates that for each equivalent of cis-desaturation of delta 7-cholestenol, 1 eq of NADH is consumed. Along with strict dependence upon oxygen, this observation confirms, as suggested by previous workers, that the 5-desaturation is catalyzed by a mixed function oxidase rather than a dehydrogenase.  相似文献

Cytochrome P-450 from rat lung microsomes has been solubilized and purified 8-fold by using affinity chromatography on an ω-amino-n-octyl derivative of Sepharose 4B. The purified fraction was free of cytochrome b5 and NADPH-cytochrome c reductase and showed spectral characteristics similar to those of lung microsomal cytochrome P-450. When combined with NADPH-cytochrome c reductase partially purified from liver microsomes, the cytochrome P-450 fraction supported the hydroxylation of benzo (α)pyrene and the activity was proportional to the content of the hemoprotein. No absolute requirement for phosphatidylcholine was found.  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

Aromatase, the cytochrome P-450 that converts androgen to estrogen, has been solubilized from chicken ovarian microsomes with the nonionic detergent Emulgen 913. Following chromatography on gel filtration, anion exchange, dye affinity, and hydrophobic media, ovarian aromatase is purified up to 27-fold with 10-15% recovery. Separation of the cytochrome P-450 aromatase from NADPH cytochrome P-450 reductase is achieved during the purification. The partially purified enzyme is stable for as long as 6 months when frozen in liquid nitrogen in buffer containing dithiothreitol, glycerol, Emulgen and 150 mM KCl.  相似文献

Cytochrome P-450-dependent digitoxin 12 beta-hydroxylase from cell cultures of foxglove (Digitalis lanata) was solubilized from microsomal membranes with CHAPS (3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]propane-1-sulphonic acid). Cytochrome P-450 was separated from NADPH: cytochrome c (P-450) reductase by ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel. NADPH:cytochrome c (P-450) reductase was further purified by affinity chromatography on 2',5'-ADP-Sepharose 4B. This procedure resulted in a 248-fold purification of the enzyme; on SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis after silver staining, only one band, corresponding to a molecular mass of 80 kDa, was present. The digitoxin 12 beta-hydroxylase activity could be reconstituted by incubating partially purified cytochrome P-450 and NADPH:cytochrome c (P-450) reductase together with naturally occurring microsomal lipids and flavin nucleotides. This procedure yielded about 10% of the original amount of digitoxin 12 beta-hydroxylase.  相似文献

The rat liver microsomal enzyme that catalyzes NADPH-dependent reduction of 3-ketosteroid intermediates of cholesterol biosynthesis from lanosterol has been solubilized. Although the specific activity has been enhanced only modestly, 24-fold, the solubilized and partially purified reductase can be obtained free of 4-methyl sterol oxidase (also NAD(P)H dependent) and 4α-steroidoic acid decarboxylase (NAD dependent) that are the other two constitutive enzymes of microsomal sterol 4-demethylation. In addition, the isolated protein can be incorporated into artificial phospholipid membranes with retention of activity. Thus, the partially purified 3-ketosteroid reductase is suitable for reconstitution with other enzymes and electron carriers to achieve the 10-step oxidative removal of the 4-gem-dimethyl group of sterols. Both the solubilized and microsomalbound enzyme are essentially inactive with NADH. Also, similar sterol substrate specificities with 4α-monomethyl- and 4,4-dimethyl-3-ketosteroids, pH optima, and other properties of microsomal-bound and solubilized 3-ketoreductase are observed. As observed for other microsomal enzymes the Km of the solubilized enzyme is significantly lower than that of the membrane-bound enzyme. Membrane-bound 3-ketosteroid reductase is stimulated two- to- threefold by cytosolic Z protein (fatty acid binding protein), but stimulatory activity is lost after solubilization of the microsomal enzyme. Stimulation could not be restored by incorporating the partially purified reductase into an artificial membrane. Stimulation can be reversed by titration of Z-protein with either fatty acids or anti-Z-protein immunoglobulin. Thus, Z protein may modulate several microsomal enzymic activities of sterol biosynthesis in concert by exhibiting affinities for the membrane as well as low-molecular-weight cofactors, substrates, and metabolic effectors.  相似文献

A simple and rapid method for the determination of (S)-mephenytoin 4-hydroxylase activity by human liver microsomal cytochrome P-450 has been developed. [Methyl-14C] mephenytoin was synthesized by alkylation of S-nirvanol with 14CH3I and used as a substrate. After incubation of [methyl-14C]mephenytoin with human liver microsomes or a reconstituted monooxygenase system containing partially purified human liver cytochrome P-450, the 4-hydroxylated metabolite of mephenytoin was separated by thin-layer chromatography and quantified. The formation of the metabolite depended on the incubation time, substrate concentration, and cytochrome P-450 concentration and was found to be optimal at pH 7.4. The Km and Vmax rates obtained with a human liver microsomal preparation were 0.1 mM and 0.23 nmol 4-hydroxymephenytoin formed/min/nmol cytochrome P-450, respectively. The hydroxylation activity showed absolute requirements for cytochrome P-450, NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase, and NADPH in a reconstituted monooxygenase system. Activities varied from 5.6 to 156 pmol 4-hydroxymephenytoin formed/min/nmol cytochrome P-450 in 11 human liver microsomal preparations. The basic system utilized for the analysis of mephenytoin 4-hydroxylation can also be applied to the estimation of other enzyme activities in which phenol formation occurs.  相似文献

Cytochrome P-450 catalysing 25-hydroxylation of vitamin D3 was purified from pig kidney microsomes. The enzyme fraction contained 7 nmol of cytochrome P-450/mg of protein and showed only one protein band with an apparent Mr of 50,500 upon SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. The purified cytochrome P-450 catalysed 25-hydroxylation of vitamin D3 up to 1,000 times more efficiently, and 25-hydroxylation of 1 alpha-hydroxyvitamin D3 up to 4000 times more efficiently, than the microsomes. The cytochrome P-450 required microsomal NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase for catalytic activity. Mitochondrial ferredoxin and ferredoxin reductase could not replace microsomal NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase. The enzyme preparation showed no detectable 25-hydroxylase activity towards vitamin D2 or 1 alpha-hydroxylase activity towards 25-hydroxyvitamin D3. CO inhibited the 25-hydroxylation by more than 85%. Mannitol, hydroquinone, catalase and superoxide dismutase did not affect the 25-hydroxylation. The possible role of the kidney microsomal cytochrome P-450 in the metabolism of vitamin D3 is discussed.  相似文献

The substrate specificity of the reconstituted delta 16-C19-steroid synthetase system, which catalyzes the formation of 5,16-androstadien-3 beta-ol or 4,16-androstadien-3-one from pregnenolone or progesterone, respectively, was studied. The reconstituted system consisted of a partially purified cytochrome P-450, NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase, cytochrome b5 and NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase all from pig testicular microsomes. It was found that 5 alpha-reduced C21 steroids such as 5 alpha-pregnane-3,20-dione, 3 alpha-hydroxy-5 alpha-pregnan-20-one and 3 beta-hydroxy-5 alpha-pregnan-20-one can be substrates for the enzyme system, resulting in the formation of 5 alpha-androst-16-en-3-one, 5 alpha-androst-16-en-3 alpha-ol and 5 alpha-androst-16-en-3 beta-ol, respectively. The results suggest that 5 alpha-reduced delta 16-C19 steroids might be synthesized from pregnenolone and progesterone via 5 alpha-reduced C21 steroids as intermediates. The pathways would bypass 5,16-androstadien-3 beta-ol and 4,16-androstadien-3-one which have been assumed as obligatory intermediates in the formation of 5 alpha-reduced delta 16-C19 steroids from pregnenolone and progesterone.  相似文献

The effect of radiation on the drug-metabolizing enzyme system of microsomes, reconstituted with liposomes of microsomal phospholipids, NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase and cytochrome P-450, was examined to elucidate the role of lipid peroxidation of membranes in radiation-induced damage to membrane-bound enzymes. The reconstituted system of non-irradiated enzymes with irradiated liposomes showed a low activity of hexobarbital hydroxylation, whereas irradiated enzymes combined with non-irradiated liposomes exhibited an activity equal to that of unirradiated controls. Irradiation of liposomes caused a decrease in cytochrome P-450 content by destruction of the haem of cytochrome P-450 and also inhibited the binding capacity of cytochrome P-450 for hexobarbital. The relationship between radiation-induced lipid peroxidation and membrane-bound enzymes is discussed.  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

Steroid-8-ene isomerase that catalyzes isomerization of delta 8- to delta 7-sterols has been solubilized from rat liver microsomes with a mixture of two detergents, octylglucoside and sodium taurodeoxycholic acid. During a 40-fold enrichment of the solubilized enzyme, other enzymes of cholesterol biosynthesis, endogenous lipids, and electron carriers are removed. A comparison of properties of the solubilized and partially purified isomerase with the membrane-bound enzyme shows they are essentially identical with respect to pH profile, effect of inhibitors and cofactors, substrate specificity, and Km values. Addition of phospholipid to the partially purified enzyme stimulates activity as much as 1.8-fold over control rates. Although the relative rate of isomerization of cholesta-8,24-dien-3 beta-ol is six times that observed with cholest-8-en-3 beta-ol, the delta 8 to delta 7 ratio at equilibrium is approximately equal. The reversibility of the reaction has been demonstrated by the direct conversion of cholest-7-en-3 beta-ol to cholest-8-en-3 beta-ol; at equilibrium the delta 7-isomer is predominant (19/1). The purified enzyme does not catalyze isomerization of cholesta-8,14-dien-3 beta-ol and cholest-8(14)-en-3 beta-ol under conditions that result in equilibrium mixtures of isomers from cholest-8(9)-en-3 beta-ol. These results are consistent with the earlier suggestion that delta 8(14)-sterols are neither formed nor metabolized by the same microsomal enzymes that catalyze transformation of lanosterol to cholesterol.  相似文献

Highly selective chromatography of microsomal enzymes has been carried out on columns of immobilized cytochrome b5 that was obtained by detergent solubilization (d-b5) of the complete amphipathic molecule. Several partially purified isozymes of cytochrome P-450 are resolved on d-b5 columns, and one high-affinity isozyme has been readily purified to homogeneity. Chromatographic selectivity and correlation of elution order of isozymes of cytochrome P-450 with direct spectral measurements of affinity constants suggests affinity chromatography on d-b5 columns. Substantial one-step enrichments of NADH-cytochrome-b5 reductase and an unstable cytochrome b5-dependent oxidase of cholesterol synthesis, 4-methyl sterol oxidase, have been obtained on d-b5 columns which further supports this conclusion. Comparison of chromatographic behavior on columns of immobilized cytochrome b5 that was obtained by trypsin solubilization (t-b5) with d-b5 columns shows marked differences which must be attributed to the absence of the hydrophobic domain of the t-b5 molecule. NADH-cytochrome-b5 reductase and the high affinity isozyme of cytochrome P-450 purified by d-b5 affinity chromatography are poorly retained on t-b5 columns. A different cytochrome P-450 isozyme with lower affinity for cytochrome b5 is only retained on d-b5 columns. Cytochrome-P-450 reductase is not retained on either column. Because affinity chromatography is suggested on d-b5 columns, the procedure may be generally applicable for predicting protein-protein interactions of microsomal electron transport components that either donate electrons to, or receive electrons from, cytochrome b5. In addition, the procedure should have considerable utilitarian application for enzyme enrichment.  相似文献

1. Cytochrome P-450LgM2 was purified from sheep lung microsomes in the presence of detergents, Emulgen 913 and cholate. 2. The purification procedure involved the chromatography of the detergent solubilized microsomes on DEAE-cellulose and hydroxylapatite. 3. Cytochrome P-450LgM2 was further purified on second DEAE-cellulose and hydroxylapatite columns. 4. The specific content of the highly purified P-450LgM2 was 16-18 nmol P-450/mg protein and purified 164-fold. 5. The yield was 16% of the initial content in microsomes. 6. The SDS-polyacrylamide slab gel electrophoresis (PAGE) of the purified lung cytochrome P-450LgM2 showed one protein band having the monomer molecular weight of 49,500. 7. The absolute CO-difference spectrum of dithionate-reduced P-450LgM2 gave a peak at 451 nm. 8. When sheep lung cytochrome P-450LgM2 and P-450LM2 purified from liver of phenobarbital (PB)-induced rabbit were subjected to Western Blotting and visualized immunochemically with anti-P-450LM2, they showed identical mobilities. 9. P-450LgM2 was found to be very active in N-demethylation of benzphetamine in a reconstituted system containing purified sheep lung reductase and synthetic lipid. 10. Turnover numbers (min-1) for benzphetamine, aniline, ethylmorphine and p-nitrophenol were determined to be 273, 1.2, 15.5 and 1.05, respectively, in a reconstituted microsomal lung monooxygenase system. 11. Spectral, electrophoretic, biocatalytic and immunochemical properties of sheep lung P-450LgM2 were found to be similar to those of P-450 isozyme 2, purified from PB-treated rabbit liver and of rabbit lung microsomes.  相似文献
