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.

The classical pathway for induction of cytochrome P4501A (CYP1A) by xenobiotics is ligand binding to the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR). However, several studies with mammalian cell systems point out a range of xenobiotics including imidazole derivatives, which are able to

Organic hydroperoxides are believed to be primarily detoxified in cells by the GSH peroxidase/GSSG reductase system and activated to cytotoxic radical species by non-heme iron. However, organic hydroperoxides seem to be bioactivated by cytochrome P450 (P450) in isolated hepatocytes as

Equilibrium dialysis studies established that 1-[4'-(3H)-phenyl]imidazole (PI) was bound to hepatic microsomal suspensions from control, phenobarbital (PB)- and 3-methylcholanthrene (3MC)-treated rats and that the binding was directly related to the cytochrome P-450 content.
