Assessment of hepatic omega-oxidation of fatty acids by cytochrome P450IV enzymes in toxicology studies can be a means of evaluating test compound effects on peroxisomal proliferation. Routine assay of omega-oxidation, however, requires a simpler method of enzymatic analysis than currently

An enzyme isolated from rat liver cytosol (native molecular mass 78. 3 kDa; polypeptide molecular mass 42.5 kDa) is capable of catalysing the NADH/NADPH-dependent degradation of S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO). The activity utilizes 1 mol of coenzyme per mol of GSNO processed.

Fatty acid (FA) uniport via mitochondrial uncoupling protein (UcP) was detected fluorometrically with PBFI, potassium-binding benzofuran phthalate and SPQ, 6-methoxy-N-(3-sulfopropyl)-quinolinium, indicating K+ and H+, respectively. The FA structural patterns required for FA flip-flop, UcP-mediated FA uniport, activation of UcP-mediated H+

The formation of omega-hydroxylauric acid from lauric acid is an indicator of the activity of cytochrome P-450 IV family proteins. The two main metabolites of lauric acid, (omega-1)-and omega-hydroxylauric acid, have been completely separated by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. Measurement

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering was used as a spectroscopic tool to investigate the changes brought upon cytochrome P450BSss after fatty acid binding. Differences in the spectra of substrate-free and substrate-bound enzyme were observed indicating the potential for this method to be
