General description

1-Phenylimidazole is an imidazole derivative. It induces 7-ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase (EROD) activity in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) hepatocytes. The S(1)→S(0) transition of 1-phenylimidazole has been investigated in a supersonic jet expansion by resonant two-photon ionization. 1-Phenylimidazole is reported to be inhibitor of calmodulin-dependent nitric-oxide synthase from bovine brain and GHs pituitary cells.

Application

1-Phenylimidazole is a suitable reagent used to investigate its effect on the citrulline formation by bovine brain nitric-oxide synthase.

The camphor-degrading microorganism, Pseudomonas putida strain ATCC 17453, is an aerobic, gram-negative soil bacterium that uses camphor as its sole carbon and energy source. The genes responsible for the catabolic degradation of camphor are encoded on the extra-chromosomal CAM plasmid.

Nitric oxide synthase catalyzes the pyridine nucleotide-dependent oxidation of L-arginine to nitric oxide and L-citrulline. It is a specialized cytochrome P450 monooxygenase that is sensitive to inhibition by imidazole. Steady-state kinetic studies on recombinant human inducible nitric oxide synthase (rH-iNOS)
