Cloning, primary sequence, and chromosomal mapping of a human flavin-containing monooxygenase (FMO1).
cDNA clones that code for a pig and human flavin-containing monooxygenase (FMO) have been isolated. The full-length sequence of the human cDNAs revealed that they encode a polypeptide of 532 amino acid residues containing putative FAD- and NADP-binding sites. The deduced amino acid sequence has 88 and 86% identity, respectively, with the pig and rabbit "hepatic" forms of FMO, but is only 58% si...
متن کاملCloning, primary sequence and chromosomal localization of human FMO2, a new member of the flavin-containing mono-oxygenase family.
We have previously reported the cloning of cDNAs for a flavin-containing mono-oxygenase (FMO) of man, designated FMO1 [Dolphin, Shephard, Povey, Palmer, Ziegler, Ayesh, Smith & Phillips (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 12379-12385], that is the orthologue of pig and rabbit hepatic FMOs. We now describe the isolation and characterization of cDNA clones for a second human FMO, which we have designated ...
متن کاملBacterial flavin-containing monooxygenase is trimethylamine monooxygenase.
Flavin-containing monooxygenases (FMOs) are one of the most important monooxygenase systems in Eukaryotes and have many important physiological functions. FMOs have also been found in bacteria; however, their physiological function is not known. Here, we report the identification and characterization of trimethylamine (TMA) monooxygenase, termed Tmm, from Methylocella silvestris, using a combin...
متن کاملRegulation of Flavin-Containing Monooxygenase
The flavin-containing monooxygenases (FMOs) are important for the oxidation of a variety of environmental toxicants, natural products, and therapeutics. Consisting of six family members (FMO1–5), these enzymes exhibit distinct but broad and overlapping substrate specificity and are expressed in a highly tissueand species-selective manner. Corresponding to previously identified regulatory domain...
متن کاملDevelopmental Regulation of Flavin - Containing Monooxygenase
approved: David E. Williams The mammalian FMO represents a multigene family which oxygenates a large number of xenobiotics. No physiological role has been determined for FMO, although synthesis of disulfide bonds and detoxification of dietary chemicals have been suggested. Five FMO gene subfamilies, each containing a single gene, have been identified. In this study, we determined the patterns o...
