    Abstract The author describes studies that led to the resolution and reconstitution of the cytochrome P450 enzyme system in microsomal membranes. The review indicates how purification and characterization of the cytochromes led to rigorous evidence for multiple isoforms of the oxygenases with distinct chemical and physical properties and different but somewhat overlapping substrate specificities. Present knowledge of the individual steps in the P450 and reductase reaction cycles is summarized, including evidence for the generation of multiple functional oxidants that may contribute to the exceptional diversity of the reactions catalyzed.

    Abstract Enzymes that effect with ease one of the most difficult chemical reactions, hydroxylation of an unfunctionalized alkyl group, are of particular interest because highly reactive intermediates must be produced. A typical example, the hydroxylation of fatty acids in the omega position, is now known to occur widely in nature. The catalysts, which can be called "omega-oxygenases," also insert molecular oxygen into a variety of other substrates at positions removed from activating functional groups, as in steroids, eicosanoids, and numerous drugs and other xenobiotics. Progress in the characterization of bacterial nonheme-iron enzymes, and plant, bacterial, and mammalian P450 cytochromes that catalyze fatty acid omega-oxidation, and evidence for multiple functional oxidants are summarized.

    Abstract We report here the unexpected finding that recombinant or hepatic microsomal NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase catalyzes the oxidative deformylation of a model xenobiotic aldehyde, 2-phenylpropionaldehyde, to the n-1 alcohol, 1-phenylethanol, in the absence of cytochrome P450. The flavoprotein and NADPH are absolute requirements, and the reaction displays a dependence on time and on NADPH and reductase concentration. Not surprisingly, the hydrophobic tail of the flavoprotein is not required for catalytic competence. The reductase domain of neuronal nitric oxide synthase is about 30% more active than P450 reductase, and neither flavoprotein catalyzes conversion of the aldehyde to the carboxylic acid, by far the predominant metabolite with P450s in a reconstituted system. Reductase-catalyzed deformylation is unaffected by metal ion chelators and oxygen radical scavengers, but is strongly inhibited by catalase, and the catalase-mediated inhibition is prevented by azide. These results, together with observed parallel increases in 1-phenylethanol and H(2)O(2) formation as a function of NADPH concentration, are evidence that free H(2)O(2) is rate-limiting in aldehyde deformylation by the flavoprotein reductases. This contrasts sharply with the P450-catalyzed reaction, which is brought about by iron-bound peroxide that is inaccessible to catalase.

  7. Article: Ipso-substitution by cytochrome P450 with conversion of p-hydroxybenzene derivatives to hydroquinone: evidence for hydroperoxo-iron as the active oxygen species.

    Abstract Evidence for multiple functional active oxidants in cytochrome P450-catalyzed reactions was previously obtained in this laboratory with mutants in which proton delivery was perturbed by replacement of the highly conserved threonine residue in the active site by alanine, thus apparently interfering with the conversion of the peroxo-iron to the hydroperoxo-iron and the latter to the oxenoid-iron species. These enzymes have now been employed to examine the reaction in which cytochrome P450 in liver microsomes is known to effect ipso-substitution, the elimination of p-substituents in phenols to yield hydroquinone. As shown with purified NH(2)-truncated cytochromes in a reconstituted enzyme system, the reaction exhibits an absolute requirement for cytochrome P450 and NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase. Under optimal conditions truncated cytochrome P450 2E1 is active with 10 of the p-substituted phenols examined. Of particular interest, the corresponding cytochrome with threonine-303 replaced by alanine is from 1.5- to 50-fold higher in activity with the p-chloro, -bromo, -nitro, -cyano, -hydroxymethyl, -formyl, and -acetyl derivatives, and the reaction with the p-benzoyl, -methyl, and -t-butyl compounds is catalyzed by the mutant enzyme only. The results implicate the hydroperoxo-iron species as an electrophilic active oxidant in cytochrome P450-catalyzed aromatic ipso-substitution.

    Abstract The NADPH-dependent consumption of O(2) by cytochrome P450 BM3 was stimulated by either laurate or perfluorolaurate, but the NADPH/O(2) molar consumption ratios were approximately 1 and 2, respectively, indicating that perfluorolaurate does not become oxygenated by BM3 and oxygen undergoes full reduction to water. The nature of this catalytic cycle uncoupled to hydroxylation was explored using bilirubin as a molecular probe. During uncoupling with perfluorolaurate bilirubin was degraded and stimulated O(2) uptake by an approximately equimolar amount. No stimulation of oxygen uptake was caused by bilirubin in presence of NADPH alone or in presence of laurate together with NADPH; under these conditions little degradation of bilirubin was observed. Mesobilirubin was also degraded during uncoupling with perfluorolaurate, whereas biliverdin (which lacks the central methene bridge present in rubins) was unaffected. It is suggested that the CYP ferryl oxygen species abstracts a hydrogen atom from the central methene bridge of bilirubin to generate a radical, which is further dehydrogenated to biliverdin or else binds O(2) and undergoes fragmentation. We conclude that the uncoupled catalytic cycle of cytochrome P450 has properties resembling those of a peroxidase and that bilirubin is rapidly oxidized as a peroxidase substrate. The potential toxicological significance of cytochrome P450 uncoupling is considered.

    Abstract A fundamental aspect of cytochrome P450 function is the role of the strictly conserved axial cysteine ligand, replacement of which by histidine has invariably resulted in mammalian and bacterial preparations devoid of heme. Isolation of the His-436 variant of NH2-truncated P450 2B4 partly as the holoenzyme was achieved in the present study by mutagenesis of the I-helix Ala-298 residue to Glu and subsequent conversion of the axial Cys-436 to His. The expressed A298E/C436H double mutant, cloned with a hexahistidine tag, had a molecular mass equivalent to that of the primary structure of His-tagged truncated 2B4 and the sum of the two mutated residues, and contained a heme group which, when released on HPLC, showed a retention time and spectrum identical to those of iron protoporphyrin IX. The absolute spectra of A298E/C436H indicate a change in heme coordination structure from low- to high-spin, and, as expected for a His-ligated hemeprotein, the Soret maximum of the ferrous CO complex is at 422 nm. The double mutant has no oxygenase activity with representative substrates known to undergo transformation by the oxene [(FeO)3+] or peroxo activated oxygen species, but catalyzes significant H2O2 formation that is NADPH- and time-dependent, and directly proportional to the concentration of A298E/C436H in the presence of saturating reductase. Moreover, the catalytic efficiency of A298E/C436H in the H2O2-supported peroxidation of pyrogallol is more than two orders of magnitude greater than that of wild-type 2B4 or the A298E variant. The results unambiguously demonstrate that the proximal thiolate ligand is essential for substrate oxygenation by P450.
