Cooperativity of cytochrome P450 monooxygenase system in view of the modulation of drug and carcinogen metabolism
Dědič, Jan ; Hodek, Petr (advisor) ; Ječmen, Tomáš (referee)
System of mixed function oxidases and oxygenases is very much involved in metabolism of xenobiotics and endogenous compounds. System consists of several components: cytochrome P450, NADPH: cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (CPR), cytochrome b5 and NADH: cytochrome b5 oxidoreductase. It was found, that all these components interact with each other, thus ensuring operation of the entire system. Cooperativity of the system is then dependent on many factors, notably the nature of the interactions between the components. Apparently the most frequently discussed are the interactions between CPR, cytochrome b5 and cytochrome P450. The main redox partner of cytochrome P450 is CPR that during the electron transport undergoes a significant conformational change. Cytochrome b5 may have both inhibitory and stimulatory effects on the enzymatic reaction and its mechanism of action has not been fully elucidated. Cytochrome P450 can interact among themselves to create complexes which presence may have significant influence on enzymatic reaction. However cooperativity of the system in terms of character of enzymatic reaction does not depend only on quantitative effects, such as inhibition and stimulation. It turns out, that also depends on qualitative effects, because it has been shown, that certain changes in the...
