Purification and characterization of NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase from Lake Van fish liver microsomes and investigation of some chemical and metals’ effects on the enzyme activity

چکیده
NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase was purified from Lake Van fish liver microsomes by primary and secondary DEAE-cellulose column chromatograph with 20.46 μM/min/mg enzyme specific activities, 54.4% purification yield, and purification of 38-fold. The purity of the enzyme was established, and its monomer molecular weight was determined by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. SDS-PAGE results showed a single band and the molecular weight of NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase was 70 kDa. In addition, optimum ionic strength, optimum pH, optimum temperature, and stable pH values were determined for the enzyme in the kinetic studies performed. KM and Vmax were determined for NADPH and cytochrome c. Effects of some metals ions, antibiotics, and some other drugs used in aquarium fisheries on the activity of the enzyme were investigated. IC50 values and K i values of metals showing an inhibitory effect were calculated.

The effects of pantoprazole on xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes in rat liver microsomes were examined. Groups of female Sprague-Dawley rats were orally administered pantoprazole and other proton pump inhibitors, omeprazole and lansoprazole, at 5, 50, or 300 mg/kg/day for 7 days, followed by assays to detect changes in the levels of liver microsomal protein, cytochrome P450, cytochrome b5, NADPH ...
متن کاملImmunochemical characterization of NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase from Jerusalem artichoke and other higher plants.
Polyclonal antibodies were prepared against NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase purified from Jerusalem artichoke. These antibodies inhibited efficiently the NADPH-cytochrome c reductase activity of the purified enzyme, as well as of Jerusalem artichoke microsomes. Likewise, microsomal NADPH-dependent cytochrome P-450 mono-oxygenases (cinnamate and laurate hydroxylases) were efficiently inhibited....
متن کاملMechanism of cytochrome P450 activation by caffeine and 7,8-benzoflavone in rat liver microsomes.
Caffeine and 7,8-benzoflavone activate CYP3A2 in rat liver microsomes. Both activators appear to enhance enzyme activity by an increase in Vmax and to a lesser extent a decrease in Km. Additive effect studies demonstrated that the two activators oppose one another's effect. Electron transfer steps in the cytochrome P450 cycle are involved in the mechanism of cytochrome P450 activation, as indic...

A cDNA encoding a new member of the cytochrome P450 3A subfamily, P450 3A26, has been isolated from phenobarbital-induced canine liver. The sequence encodes a protein of 503 amino acids with 33 nucleotide differences conferring 22 amino acid substitutions when compared with the previously identified canine CYP3A12 enzyme. Nine of the amino acid differences are within the substrate recognition s...

This study evaluated potential effects of a number of capsinoids (ie, capsiate, dihydrocapsiate, nordihydrocapsiate) and a single capsaicinoid (ie, capsaicin) on liver microsomal cytochrome P450 3A4-mediated midazolam 1'-hydroxylase activity. Where possible, an inhibition curve was prepared; the concentration at which enzyme activity dropped to 50% was calculated. Capsaicin clearly inhibited cy...
