Epoxide hydrolase activity in isolated peroxisomes of mouse liver.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Using trans-stilbene oxide as substrate, the subcellular distribution of epoxide hydrolase was investigated in livers from DBA/2 mice. The highest specific activities were found in cytosolic and light mitochondrial fractions. Isopycnic subfractionation of the light mitochondrial fraction showed that the organelle-bound trans-stilbene oxide hydrolase is localized in peroxisomes.

Endogenous, constitutive soluble epoxide hydrolase in mice 3T3 cells was localized via immunofluorescence microscopy exclusively in peroxisomes, whereas transiently expressed mouse soluble epoxide hydrolase (from clofibrate-treated liver) accumulated only in the cytosol of 3T3 and HeLa cells. When the C-terminal lie of mouse soluble epoxide hydrolase was mutated to generate a prototypic putativ...
متن کاملDesign, Synthesis and Biological Activity of 4,6-disubstituted Pyridin-2(1H)-ones as Novel Inhibitors of Soluble Epoxide Hydrolase
Soluble epoxide hydrolase enzyme is a promising therapeutic target for hypertension, vascular inflammation, pain and some other risk factors of cardiovascular diseases. The most potent sEH inhibitors reported in the literature are urea-based ones which often have poor bioavailability. In this study, in a quest for finding potent inhibitors of soluble epoxide hydrolase, some 4,6-disubstituted py...

متن کاملEpoxide hydrolase in human and rat peroxisomes: implication for disorders of peroxisomal biogenesis.
To understand the basis of excretion of excessive amounts of epoxydicarboxylic fatty acids (EDFA) in urine of patients with disorders of peroxisomal biogenesis (Pitt, J. J., and A. Poulos. 1993. Clin. Chim. Acta. 223: 23-29), the activity of epoxide hydrolase (EH) was measured in cultured skin fibroblasts from control subjects and patients with peroxisomal disorders. EH activity was approximate...
متن کاملMolecular cloning and expression of murine liver soluble epoxide hydrolase.
A clofibrate-induced mouse liver cDNA library was prepared and used to isolate the coding sequence for soluble epoxide hydrolase. A 1668-base pair (bp) clone was isolated and found to contain a 1269-bp open reading frame coding for 423 amino acids. Subsequent RNA polymerase chain reaction resulted in the isolation of 396 bp of additional 5'-sequence. Translation of the resulting 1659-bp open re...
