Study of the composition and organization of cytochrome P450 system by covalent crosslinking
 Koberová, Monika ; Hodek, Petr (advisor) ; Hansíková, Hana (referee)
The system of mixed function oxygenase (MFO system) participates in significant roles in the metabolism of endogenous compounds and xenobiotics. This system contains cytochrome P450, NADPH:cytochrome P450 reductase, and also there are assigned NADH: cytochrome b5 reductase and cytochrome b5. It was proved that cytochrome b5 can stimulate or inhibit cytochrome P450 (CYP)-dependent reactions and even change the ratio of resulting metabolites. The mechanism of cytochrome b5 action has not been fully elucidated yet. Elucidation of protein-protein interactions in MFO system and determination of topology of this system could explain the mechanism of cyt b5 action. The covalent cross- linking technique is suitable method for identifying protein-protein interactions within the membrane. Cytochrome b5 contains 3 methionines and in 2 cases the methionines are localized in a short hydrophobic C-terminal membrane anchor. Interactions with cytochrome P450 in the membrane environment can be identified by substitution of two methionine for photoactivatable analogue of methionine (photo-methionine) and subsequent photoactivation. This work is focused on expression and isolation of photo-cytochrome b5 (photo- cyt b5), cytochrome b5 analogue with incorporated photo-methionine. Conditions for photo-methionine...
