چکیده

Lauric acid omega-hydroxylase (cytochrome P-450LA omega) was purified from livers of rats that had been given the hypolipidemic drug clofibrate. Immunoblot analysis with anti-cytochrome P-450LA omega antibody revealed the presence of two clofibrate-induced cytochrome P-450 proteins in both liver and kidney. This antibody was used to screen a lambda gt11 expression library constructed from liver mRNA isolated from rats given clofibrate. The clone, pP-450LA omega, was isolated and found to contain 2062 base pairs with an open reading frame of 509 amino acids (Mr 58,222). The pP-450LA omega cDNA insert was placed in the yeast expression vector pAAH5, and the resultant plasmid expressed a protein of the same size and activity as cytochrome P-450LA omega. The mechanism of the regulation of the cytochrome P-450LA omega gene by hypolipidemic agents was examined. The rate of cytochrome P-450LA omega gene transcription was increased as early as 1 h after administration of clofibrate, and this increase was followed by an elevation of cytochrome P-450LA omega mRNA, immunochemically detectable protein, and cytochrome P-450LA omega activity. In contrast, no increase in transcriptional activity was detected after clofibrate administration for the cytochrome P-450PCN or P-450b/e genes. The cytochrome P-450LA omega has several structural features in common with other cytochrome P-450s, including a conserved cysteine-containing heme-binding fifth ligand fragment and a hydrophobic amino terminus. Overall, cytochrome P-450LA omega shared less than 35% cDNA nucleotide and amino acid similarity with cytochromes P-450c, P-450d, P-450e, and P-450PCN, indicating that it is a member of a new cytochrome P-450 gene family. Southern blot analysis indicates that this family contains two or three genes.

Cloning and expression of two novel pig liver and kidney fatty acid hydroxylases [cytochrome P450 (CYP)4A24 and CYP4A25].

A new member of the cytochrome P450 (CYP) 4A subfamily (CYP4A21) was recently cloned by PCR from pig liver [Lundell, Hansson, and Wikvall (2001) J. Biol. Chem. 276, 9606-9612]. This enzyme does not catalyse omega- or (omega-1)-hydroxylation of lauric acid, the model substrate for CYP4A enzymes. Instead, CYP4A21 participates in bile acid biosynthesis in the pig. Extensive studies, primarily cond...

Cytochrome P-450-Dependent omega-Hydroxylation of Lauric Acid by Microsomes from Pea Seedlings.

Microsomes from apical buds of pea (Pisum sativum L. var. Téléphone à rames) seedlings hydroxylate lauric acid at the omega-position. This oxidation is catalyzed by a cytochrome P-450 enzyme which differs from laurate hydroxylases previously described in microorganisms and mammals by its strict substrate specificity and the ability of low NADH concentrations to support unusually high oxidation ...

Prostaglandin and fatty acid omega- and (omega-1)-oxidation in rabbit lung. Acetylenic fatty acid mechanism-based inactivators as specific inhibitors.

Terminal acetylenic fatty acid mechanism-based inhibitors (Ortiz de Montellano, P. R., and Reich, N. O. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 4136-4141) were used as probes in determining the substrate specificity of rabbit lung cytochrome P-450 isozymes of pregnant animals in both microsomes and reconstituted systems. Lung microsomal and reconstituted P-450 form 5-catalyzed lauric acid omega- and (omega-...

Functional expression in yeast and characterization of a clofibrate-inducible plant cytochrome P-450 (CYP94A1) involved in cutin monomers synthesis.

The chemical tagging of a cytochrome P-450-dependent lauric acid omega-hydroxylase from clofibrate-treated Vicia sativa seedlings with [1-14C]11-dodecynoic acid allowed the isolation of a full-length cDNA designated CYP94A1. We describe here the functional expression of this novel P-450 in two Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains overproducing their own NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase or a reducta...

[omega]-Hydroxylation of Oleic Acid in Vicia sativa Microsomes (Inhibition by Substrate Analogs and Inactivation by Terminal Acetylenes).

Oleic acid (18:1) is hydroxylated exclusively on the terminal methyl by a microsomal cytochrome P-450-dependent system ([omega]-OAH) from clofibrate-induced Vicia sativa L. (var minor) seedlings (F. Pinot, J.-P. Salaun, H. Bosch, A. Lesot, C. Mioskowski, F. Durst [1992] Biochem Biophys Res Commun 184: 183-193). This reaction was inactivated by two terminal acetylenes: (Z)-9-octadecen-17-ynoic a...
