NADPH: cytochrome P-450 reductase in olfactory epithelium. Relevance to cytochrome P-450-dependent reactions.
The presence of a very active cytochrome P-450-dependent drug-metabolizing system in the olfactory epithelium has been confirmed by using 7-ethoxycoumarin, 7-ethoxyresorufin, hexobarbitone and aniline as substrates, and the reasons for the marked activity of the cytochrome P-450 in this tissue have been investigated. The spectral interaction of hexobarbitone and aniline with hepatic and olfacto...
متن کاملCompetition between cytochrome P-450 isozymes for NADPH-cytochrome P-450 oxidoreductase affects drug metabolism.
NADPH-cytochrome P-450 oxidoreductase (CPR) is essential for the catalytic activity of cytochrome P-450 (P-450). On a molar basis, the amount of P-450 exceeds that of CPR in human liver. In this study, we investigated whether drug-drug interactions can occur as a result of competition between P-450 isozymes for this ancillary protein. For this purpose, combinations of P-450 isozymes were coexpr...
متن کاملCharacterization of a phenobarbital - inducible cytochrome P - 450 , NADPH - cytochrome P - 450 reductase and reconstituted cytochrome P - 450 mono - oxygenase system from rat brain
Cytochrome P-450 was purified to apparent homogeneity from the brain microsomes of phenobarbital-treated rats. The specific content of the purified P-450 was 12.7 nmol/mg of protein. NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase (reductase) was also purified to apparent homogeneity from brain microsomes. The specific content was 34.7,mol of cytochrome c reduced/min per mg of protein. The reduced carbon mono...
متن کاملFungal denitrification and nitric oxide reductase cytochrome P450nor.
We have shown that many fungi (eukaryotes) exhibit distinct denitrifying activities, although occurrence of denitrification was previously thought to be restricted to bacteria (prokaryotes), and have characterized the fungal denitrification system. It comprises NirK (copper-containing nitrite reductase) and P450nor (a cytochrome P450 nitric oxide (NO) reductase (Nor)) to reduce nitrite to nitro...
متن کاملRotation of cytochrome P-450. II. Specific interactions of cytochrome P-450 with NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase in phospholipid vesicles.
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 o...
