The site of synthesis and mechanism of insertion into membranes of several microsomal polypeptides was studied using translation system programmedin vitrowith polysomes or with mRNA extracted from free and membrane‐bound rat liver polysomes. Primary translation products of cytochromeb5, NADH: cytochromeb5oxidoreductase, NADPH: cytochrome P‐450 oxidoreductase and epoxide hydrolase were isolated by specific immunoprecipitation and compared with the mature proteins. The following observations were made:1While cytochromeb5and NADH: cytochromeb5oxidoreductase are synthesized in free polysomes, NADPH: cytochrome P‐450 oxidoreductase and epoxide hydrolase are made in membrane‐bound polysomes.2In all cases the radioactively labelled products synthesizedin vitrocomigrated with the purified native polypeptides. Since these proteins are not glycoproteins, it can be inferred thatin vivothey do not undergo proteolytic cleavage during or after translation.3Levels of translatable mRNA coding for NADPH: cytochrome P‐450 oxidoreductase or epoxide hydrolase were increased by phenobarbital or by various carcinogens respectively.4A comparison of amino‐terminal segments of the native epoxide hydrolase and that synthesizedin vitroshowed that this protein retains an amino‐terminal polypeptide sequence which resembles the transient insertion signal found in presecretory proteins.5The amino‐terminal region of NADPH: cytochrome P‐450 oxidoreductase contains 7 leucine residues in its first 15 amino acids and can, therefore, be presumed to be the hydrophobic portion which anchors this poly‐ peptide to the membrane.Mechanisms which may account for the spatial disposition of the membrane proteins and for their selective accumulation in endoplasmic reticulum membranes are discussed.
