NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase, an obligatory component of the cytochrome P450 dependent monooxygenase system, was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity from beef liver microsomes. The purification procedure involved the ion exchange chromatography of the detergent-solubilized microsomes on first and second DEAE-cellulose columns, followed by 2',5'-ADP Sepharose affinity chromatography. Further concentration of the enzyme and removal of Emulgen 913 and 2'-AMP were accomplished on the final hydroxylapatite column. The enzyme was purified 239-fold and the yield was 13.5%. Monomer molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be 76000 +/- 3000 (N = 5) by SDS-PAGE. The absolute absorption spectrum of beef reductase showed two peaks at 455 and 378 nm, with a shoulder at 478 mn, characteristics of flavoproteins. The effects of cytochrome c concentration, pH, and ionic strength on enzyme activity were studied. Reduction of cytochrome c with the enzyme followed Michaelis-Menten kinetics, and the apparent K(m) of the purified enzyme was found to be 47.7 muM for cytochrome c when the enzyme activity was measured in 0.3 M potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7.7). Stability of cytochrome c reductase activity was examined at 25 and 37degreesC in the presence and absence of 20% glycerol. The presence of glycerol enhanced the stability of cytochrome c reductase activity at both temperatures. Sheep lung microsomal cytochrome P4502B and NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase were also purified by the already existing methods developed in our laboratory Both beef liver and sheep lung reductases were found to be effective in supporting benzphetamine and cocaine N-demethylation reactions in the reconstituted systems containing purified sheep lung cytochrome P4502B and synthetic lipid, phosphatidylcholine dilauroyl.

Purification of CYP2B-like protein from feral leaping mullet (Liza saliens) liver microsomes and its biocatalytic, molecular, and immunological characterization
BOZCAARMUTLU, AZRA; Arinc, Emel (Wiley, 2008-01-01)
In this study, CYP2B-immunoreactive protein was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity from the liver microsomes of leaping mullet. The purified cytochrome P450 (CYP) gave a single band on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis having a M, of 49,300 Da. Absolute absorption spectrum of the purified CYP showed a maximum at 417 nm and CO-difference spectrum of dithionite-reduced cytochrome P450 gave a peak at 450 nm. The purified CYP was found to be active in N-demethylation of benzphetamin...
STIMULATORY EFFECTS OF BENZENE ON RABBIT LIVER AND KIDNEY MICROSOMAL CYTOCHROME-P-450 DEPENDENT DRUG-METABOLIZING-ENZYMES
ARINC, E; Adalı, Orhan; ISCAN, M; Güray, Nülüfer Tülün (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 1991-01-01)
Treatment of rabbits with benzene (880 mg/kg/day), s.c. for 3 consecutive days, caused 3.8- and 5.7-fold increases in aniline 4-hydroxylation rates of liver and kidney microsomes, respectively. Benzene treatment markedly enhanced hydroxylation rates of p-nitrophenol by liver and kidney by 7.2- and 4.2-fold, respectively. Both of these enzymes are associated with cytochrome P-450 LM3a. In contrast, the activity of benzphetamine N-demethylase, associated with P-450 LM2, was not altered significantly in eit...
Biomarkers of marine pollution observed in species of mullet living in two eastern Mediterranean harbours
Karakoc, FT; Hewer, A; Phillips, DH; Gaines, AF; Yuregir, G (Informa UK Limited, 1997-09-01)
The activities of enzymes associated with xenobiotic metabolism and/or oxidative processes, and the levels of aromatic-DNA adducts, have been determined in the livers of grey mullet (Oedalechilus labeo and Lisa ramada) living in two eastern Mediterranean harbours. Glutathione peroxidase (GSH-P) activity was 2.5 times higher (similar to 9 IU g(-1) liver) and glutathione reductase (GSSG-R) activity was twice as high (similar to 2.5 id g(-1) liver) in fish from the more polluted harbour at Mersin than in the h...
Nutritional and cultural parameters influencing antidipteran delta endotoxin production
ÖZKAN, MELEK; Dilek, Filiz Bengü; Yetiş, Ülkü; Özcengiz, Gülay (Elsevier BV, 2003-01-01)
In this study, various nutritional and cultural parameters influencing diptera-specific delta-endotoxin synthesis by Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. israelensis HD500 were investigated. Of various inorganic nitrogen sources, the highest yields of Cry11Aa and Cry4Ba proteins were obtained on (NH4)(2)HPO4. Among carbon sources, inulin, dextrin, maltose, lactose, sucrose, whey and glycerol were all stimulatory, while glucose, starch and molasses were suppressive. High concentrations of inorganic phosphate (50 to...
Differential effects of diabetes on CYP2E1 and CYP2B4 proteins and associated drug metabolizing enzyme activities in rabbit liver
Arinc, E; Arslan, S; Adalı, Orhan (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2005-08-01)
The effects of diabetes on cytochrome P450 (CYP)-dependent drug metabolizing enzymes are yet to be clarified. The most widely used animals in these studies have been rats, and information on the effects of diabetes on rabbit liver drug metabolizing enzymes have been unavailable until now. In this study, for the first time, a significant induction of liver CYP2E1 is demonstrated via immunoblot analysis in alloxan-induced rabbits. The CYP2E1 content of diabetic microsomes was highly correlated with the activi...
