Estrone andp-nitrophenol UDP-glucuronyltransferases from rabbit liver microsomes have been separated and purified to homogeneity by DEAE-cellulose chromatography and affinity chromatography on UDP-hexanolamine Sepharose-4B. Both enzyme preparations exhibited subunit molecular weights of 57,000. Estrone andp-nitrophenol UDP-glucuronyltransferases appear to exist as tetramers with an apparent molecular weight of 230,000 as determined by gel chromatography. Estrone UDP-glucuronyltransferase was completely inactive unless assayed in the presence of phosphatidylcholine. In the absence of phospholipid, considerablep-nitrophenol UDP-glucuronyltransferase enzyme activity could be detected; however, a fourfold increase in specific activity occurred in the presence of phospholipid. Estrone UDP-glucuronyltransferase could not catalyze the glucuronidation ofp-nitrophenol, whereas thep-nitrophenol UDP-glucuronyltransferase displayed slight activity toward estrone. Characterization of these enzymes revealed that estrone andp-nitrophenol UDP-glucuronyltransferases are clearly different proteins. Both enzymes demonstrated charge heterogeneity on polyacrylamide isoelectric focusing, with estrone andp-nitrophenol UDP-glucuronyltransferases exhibiting isoelectric points of 7.6 and 6.8, respectively. Amino acid analysis of the purified enzymes demonstrated that estrone UDP-glucuronyltransferase contained 60% hydrophobic amino acids whilep-nitrophenol UDP-glucuronyltransferase contained 53% hydrophobic amino acids. Limited proteolysis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate resulted in clear differences in the peptide map composition of the respective transferase. Also, each enzyme exhibited a different pH optima for the expression of maximal catalytic activity.
