Abstract: | The kinetics of product formation by cytochrome P450 2B4 were compared in the presence of cytochrome b(5) (cyt b(5)) and NADPH-cyt P450 reductase (CPR) under conditions in which cytochrome P450 (cyt P450) underwent a single catalytic cycle with two substrates, benzphetamine and cyclohexane. At a cyt P450:cyt b(5) molar ratio of 1:1 under single turnover conditions, cyt P450 2B4 catalyzes the oxidation of the substrates, benzphetamine and cyclohexane, with rate constants of 18 +/- 2 and 29 +/- 4.5 s(-1), respectively. Approximately 500 pmol of norbenzphetamine and 58 pmol of cyclohexanol were formed per nmol of cyt P450. In marked contrast, at a cyt P450:CPR molar ratio of 1:1, cyt P450 2B4 catalyzes the oxidation of benzphetamine congruent with100-fold (k = 0.15 +/- 0.05 s(-1)) and cyclohexane congruent with10-fold (k = 2.5 +/- 0.35 s(-1)) more slowly. Four hundred picomoles of norbenzphetamine and 21 pmol of cyclohexanol were formed per nmol of cyt P450. In the presence of equimolar concentrations of cyt P450, cyt b(5), and CPR, product formation is biphasic and occurs with fast and slow rate constants characteristic of catalysis by cyt b(5) and CPR. Increasing the concentration of cyt b(5) enhanced the amount of product formed by cyt b(5) while decreasing the amount of product generated by CPR. Under steady-state conditions at all cyt b(5):cyt P450 molar ratios examined, cyt b(5) inhibits the rate of NADPH consumption. Nevertheless, at low cyt b(5):cyt P450 molar ratios
