Purification and properties of a bovine adrenal 21-dehydrosteroid reductase.
نویسندگان
چکیده
An enzyme that catalyzes the reduction of Il-dehydrosteroids has been purified approximately 250-fold from acetone powder extracts of bovine adrenal glands. The reaction is specific for DPNH, but no structural requirements of substrate other than the steroid nucleus were evident. Steroids are competitive inhibitors with respect to 21-dehydrocortisol reduction. The reaction catalyzed was shown to be

Purification and Characterization of the Ferredoxin Component of 25-Hydroxycholecalciferol la-Hydroxylase
The chick kidney mitochondrial iron-sulphur protein (ferredoxin), a component of the NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase functional in the 1 a-hydroxylation of 25-hydroxycholecalciferol, was purified to homogeneity by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, gel filtration on Sephadex G-100 and preparative electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gel. A novel NADPH-cytochrome c reductase assay utilizing crude r...
متن کاملRapid purification and properties of protein kinase C from bovine adrenal medulla.
Protein kinase C was purified from bovine adrenal medulla using a rapid procedure which resulted in an approximate 1500-fold increase in specific activity. The characteristics of the enzyme are reported and for the first time it is possible to compare the effects of TPA on secretion from intact and permeabilized cells with the effect of TPA on protein kinase C purified from the same secretory t...
متن کاملStructure of a bovine gene for P-450c21 (steroid 21-hydroxylase) defines a novel cytochrome P-450 gene family.
P-450c21, a cytochrome P-450 enzyme [steroid 21-monooxygenase (steroid 21-hydroxylase), EC 1.14.99.10], mediates the 21-hydroxylation of glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid hormones in the adrenal gland. The complete sequence of a bovine P-450c21 gene shows it is 3447 base pairs long and contains 10 exons. The intron/exon organization and encoded amino acid sequence indicate that P-450c21 repr...
متن کاملImmunochemical studies on electron transport chains involving cytochrome P-450. I. Effects of antibodies to pig liver microsomal reduced triphosphopyridine nucleotide-cytochrome c reductase and the non-heme iron protein from bovine adrenocortical mitochondria.
An antibody preparation to purified, homogeneous TPNHcytochrome c reductase from pig liver microsomes was shown to inhibit concomitantly TPNH-cytochrome c reductase (NADPH-cytochrome c oxidoreductase, EC 1.6.2.3) and ethyhnorphine N-demethylase activities in pig liver microsomes. The antibody also inhibited TPNH-cytochrome c reductase and TPNH-cytochrome P-450 reductase activities in rat and pi...

The present study was undertaken to obtain information on the involvement of cytochrome P-450 in the 26-hydroxylation on bile acid intermediates and in the 25-hydroxylation of vitamin D3 in human liver mitochondria. Cytochrome P-450 was solubilized from human liver mitochondria and purified two times to a specific content of 0.125 nmol per mg protein. Furthermore, a ferredoxin was isolated from...
