Coexpression of cytochrome P4502A6 and human NADPH-P450 oxidoreductase in the baculovirus system.

چکیده
Heterologous expression using baculovirus vectors has become a popular method for the production of catalytically active cytochrome P450s (CYPs). We have systematically optimized the multiplicity of infection (MOI) for a coinfection approach for the coexpression of CYP2A6 (viral vector designated v2A6) and NADPH-P450 oxidoreductase (OR; viral vector designated vOR) using Sf9 insect cells. A 3000-fold range of MOI was examined in stationary culture and stirred suspension culture. Surprisingly, our results indicate that the best CYP2A6 catalytic activity (850-1300 pmol/ min/mg total lysate protein as measured by coumarin 7-hydroxylase activity) was obtained only when using a low MOI of v2A6 (1.5-3 x 10(-2)) and a vOR of 10- to 20-fold less. This activity was approximately 7- to 11-fold higher than the best activity obtained when infecting cells with v2A6 alone. At this level of coinfection, the P450 content ranged from 180 to 250 pmol/mg total lysate protein, and the NADPH cytochrome c reductase activity ranged from 350 to 520 nmol/min/mg total lysate protein. Increasing the MOI of both viruses to 50-fold higher resulted in lower overall activity with the optimum (250 pmol/min/mg total lysate protein) being seen earlier postinfection (60 vs. 72 hr). Increasing the MOI of vOR to levels comparable with those of v2A6, decreased coumarin 7-hydroxylase activity 14-fold. These results suggest that the best CYP2A6 catalytic activity depends on properly posttranslationally modified proteins accumulating in a right ratio as a result of primary, secondary, and possibly tertiary infection of both viruses. These results also suggest that high OR expression results in degradation of P450.

Microsomal cytochrome P450 monooxygenases of groups 1-3 are mainly expressed in the liver and play a crucial role in phase 1 reactions of xenobiotic metabolism. The cDNAs encoding human CYP2D6 and human NADPH-P450 oxidoreductase (CPR) were transformed into the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris and expressed with control of the methanol-inducible AOX1 promoter. The determined molecular weight...

Molecular cloning, enzymatic characterization, developmental expression, and cellular localization of a mouse cytochrome P450 highly expressed in kidney.
A cDNA encoding a new cytochrome P450 was isolated from a mouse liver library. Sequence analysis reveals that this 1,886-base pair cDNA encodes a 501-amino acid polypeptide that is 69-74% identical to CYP2J subfamily P450s and is designated CYP2J5. Recombinant CYP2J5 was co-expressed with NADPH-cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase in Sf9 cells using a baculovirus system. Microsomal fractions of CYP2J...

Benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) is a human carcinogen that covalently binds to DNA after activation by cytochrome P450 (P450). Here, we investigated whether NADH:cytochrome b5 reductase (CBR) in the presence of cytochrome b5 can act as sole electron donor to human P450 1A1 during BaP oxidation and replace the canonical NADPH:cytochrome P450 reductase (POR) system. We also studied the efficiencies of the c...
