Beschreibung

General description

Research area: IMMUNO AND CKS

Cytochrome P450 (CYP450) is a membrane-bound hemoprotein that constitutes a vast superfamily of heme-thiolate proteins engaged in the metabolism of exogenous and endogenous compounds. These CYP450 enzymes feature an active heme iron center that is bound to a protein molecule via a highly conserved cysteine thiolate ligand.

Application

Cytochrome P450 human has been used in in vitro binding assays to understand protein dimerization via haem–haem stacking and its significance in cancer.[1] It has also been used to study in vitro binding between PGRMC1 and CYP3A4.[2]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Cytochrome P450 is a heterogeneous family of isozymes whose primary function is to oxidize small molecules, both as a function of intermediary metabolism (e.g., fatty acids) and to detoxify exogenous compounds (drugs or toxins). Some isoforms have narrow substrate specificity, while others are promiscuous. The CYP1A1 isoform catalyzes 7-deethylation of ethoxyresorufin. Cytochrome P450 (CYP) plays an important role in detoxifying xenobiotics, cellular metabolism and homeostasis. One of the main mechanisms of drug-drug interactions is the induction or inhibition of these enzymes. CYP enzymes are transcriptionally activated by a variety of xenobiotics and by endogenous substrates via receptor-dependent pathways. Inhibition of these enzymes is a major factor in metabolism-based drug-drug interactions, and many chemotherapeutic medications can cause drug interactions by either inhibiting or inducing the cytochrome p450 enzyme system.

Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes are associated with many reactions including O-dealkylation, epoxidation, S-oxidation, and hydroxylation.
