Revised Manuscript Received August 30, 1988 abstract: The secondary structure of 52 aligned cytochrome P450 sequences, all of which are membrane bound, is predicted and collectively compared with the crystal structure of the soluble cytochrome P450eam. Ten of 13 helical regions, 6 of 7/3-pair regions, and/3-structure corresponding to a known/3-bulge near the active site of P450cam are predicted to exist in the membrane-bound P450s. Three turns associated with/3-structure in the soluble enzyme are also predicted for the membrane-bound forms. A strong structural similarity is evident between membrane P450s and the soluble P450cam. Consequently, a multitransmembrane structure involving much of P450 seems highly unlikely. A structure with two N-terminal transmembrane segments is compatible with these observations.(Cytochrome P450 designates a diverse class of 6-type cy-tochromes that activate molecular oxygen. The activated oxygen then reacts in situ with many lipophilic substrates (Ortiz de Montellano, 1986; Black & Coon, 1987). There is considerable interest in the structure and function of these enzymes. Since 1982, over 100 P450 sequences have been published, representing at least 53 unique P450 proteins and
