Detergent-solubilized liver microsomal NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase retains the ability to catalyze electron transfer to cytochrome P-450, whereas the trypsin-solubilized reductase does not. Treatment of the highly purified detergent-solubilized rabbit liver enzyme (MW 77,700) with trypsin was shown to yield a small peptide (MW 6100) as well as the large peptide (MW 71,200) which retains the flavin prosthetic groups. The small peptide, which is hydrophobic in nature as shown by its amino acid composition and solubility properties, is apparently the moiety in the native reductase involved in binding to cytochrome P-450 and to the microsomal membrane. The C-terminal amino acid sequences of the native reductase and large fragment are identical [-Trp-(Leu, Val)-Asp-Ser-COOH], indicating that the hydrophobic peptide is located in the N-terminal region of the enzyme.
