Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Three forms of cytochrome P-450 were purified to homogeneity from liver microsomes of Wistar-strain rats treated with phenobarbital. They had minimum mol.wts. of 52 000, 53 000 and 54 000 as determined by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis and are designated as P-450(L), P-450(M) and P-450(H) respectively. They were shown to be immunoidentical by Ouchterlony double-diffusion analysis. Several criteria, such as isoelectric points, substrate specificities and sensitivities to tryptic digestion, however, indicated that these cytochromes are distinct isoenzymes of cytochrome P-450. Whereas P-450(L) was highly active on various substrates, P-450(H) had generally low catalytic activities, except on aminopyrine. The cytochromes purified by immunoaffinity chromatography using anti-P-450(L) showed a marked variation in their distribution depending on the strain and colony of rat. Limited tryptic digestion of P-450(H) gave one tryptic peptide showing the same mobility as P-450(L) by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis and their primary structures were very similar. The result suggests a possibility that such limited proteolysis is involved in the post-translational modification of the cytochrome or its destruction.
