چکیده

A gene for cytochrome P450 (moxA) from Nonomuraea recticatena, coexpressed with camAB for pseudomonad redox partners in Escherichia coli, hydroxylated oleanolic acid to produce queretaroic acid. When we used the P450-induced whole-cell as a catalyst, only a small amount of queretaroic acid was produced, probably due to poor permeability of oleanolic acid into the E. coli cell. In an alternative approach with the cell-free reaction system, the conversion ratio increased up to 17%.

Crystal structure of cytochrome P450 MoxA from Nonomuraea recticatena (CYP105).

Cytochrome P450 MoxA (P450moxA) from a rare actinomycete Nonomuraea recticatena belongs to the CYP105 family and exhibits remarkably broad substrate specificity. Here, we demonstrate that P450moxA acts on several luciferin derivatives, which were originally identified as substrates of the human microsomal P450s. We also describe the crystal structure of P450moxA in substrate-free form. Structur...

Effect of oleanolic acid on hepatic toxicant-activating and detoxifying systems in mice.

We have previously shown that oleanolic acid (OA) protects mice against the hepatotoxicity of carbon tetrachloride, acetaminophen, bromobenzene, thioacetamide, furosemide, phalloidin, colchicine, cadmium, D-galactosamine and endotoxin. This study was designed to examine whether OA modulates hepatic toxicant-activating and detoxifying systems as a means of protection. Mice were treated with OA (...

Enantioselective alpha-hydroxylation of 2-arylacetic acid derivatives and buspirone catalyzed by engineered cytochrome P450 BM-3.

Here we report that an engineered microbial cytochrome P450 BM-3 (CYP102A subfamily) efficiently catalyzes the alpha-hydroxylation of phenylacetic acid esters. This P450 BM-3 variant also produces the authentic human metabolite of buspirone, R-6-hydroxybuspirone, with 99.5% ee.

Substrate recognition and molecular mechanism of fatty acid hydroxylation by cytochrome P450 from Bacillus subtilis. Crystallographic, spectroscopic, and mutational studies.

Cytochrome P450 isolated from Bacillus subtilis (P450(BSbeta); molecular mass, 48 kDa) catalyzes the hydroxylation of a long-chain fatty acid (e.g. myristic acid) at the alpha- and beta-positions using hydrogen peroxide as an oxidant. We report here on the crystal structure of ferric P450(BSbeta) in the substrate-bound form, determined at a resolution of 2.1 A. P450(BSbeta) exhibits a typical P...

Involvement of cytochrome P450 2E1 in the (omega-1)-hydroxylation of oleic acid in human and rat liver microsomes.

In vitro techniques have been used to investigate the nature of microsomal cytochrome P450 involved in the metabolism of oleic acid, a physiological monounsaturated fatty acid. Like lauric acid, which is currently used as a model substrate of fatty acid metabolism, the alkyl chain of oleic acid is hydroxylated on its omega and (omega-1) carbons. The identity of these hydroxylated metabolites wa...
