项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The long-term objective of this proposal is to better understand how the proteins of the P450 monooxygenase system are organized in the endoplasmic reticulum, the role of P450-P450 interactions on the function of these enzymes, and how these interactions may make individuals susceptible to alkylbenzene-induced toxicity by alterations in P450-mediated hydrocarbon metabolism. Alkylbenzenes are produced in extensive quantities throughout the world, with simple aromatic hydrocarbons being major components of gasoline and used in a wide variety of consumer products. The P450 system is responsible for both aliphatic and aromatic hydroxylation of the aromatic hydrocarbons, with several forms, CYP1A2, CYP2B4, and CYP2E1, being implicated in hydrocarbon metabolism. This process requires a functional interaction between P450 and the flavoprotein NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase. However, total P450 levels exceed those of reductase by a ratio of 20:1. These conditions raise basic questions as to how the enzymes of this microsomal electron transport chain are organized. During the previous grant period we demonstrated that P450s interact through the formation of heteromeric P450 complexes. We have identified complexes between CYP2B4-CYP1A2 as well as CYP1A2-CYP2E1. These interactions were shown to have a profound effect on xenobiotic metabolism, largely due to an alteration in the manner in which NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase transfers electrons to P450s in the heteromeric complex. Interestingly, we did not observe an effect on P450 function from CYP2B4-CYP2E1 complexes. The proposed studies are designed to extend our investigation and address questions related to the organization of reductase and P450, their interactions within the endoplasmic reticulum, and how these interactions affect xenobiotic metabolism, including the metabolism of alkylbenzenes. We plan to continue our characterization of these interactions, examining (1) the functional consequences of P450-P450 interactions, (2) the structural basis for these interactions by identifying the region(s) responsible for P450-P450 complex formation, and (3) the organizational consequences to P450-P450 complex formation (i.e. how do such interactions affect their regional distribution in the endoplasmic reticulum). These studies will increase our understanding of how the P450 electron transport chain is organized, and will provide new important information on the role of the P450 system in the bioactivation of aromatic hydrocarbons and the generation of reactive oxygen - a process that can have a significant influence on chemical toxicity. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The purpose of this proposal is to examine the organization of the enzymes of the P450 system in membranes within the cell. How the P450s are organized will govern not only their effectiveness in removing foreign compounds from the body, but also their ability to form reactive compounds that can lead to toxicity, cancer, and aging.

描述（由申请人提供）：本提案的长期目标是更好地了解P450单加氧酶系统的蛋白质如何在内质网中组织，P450-P450相互作用对这些酶功能的作用，以及这些相互作用如何通过改变P450介导的碳氢化合物代谢使个体容易受到烷基苯诱导的毒性。烷基苯在世界各地大量生产，简单的芳烃是汽油的主要成分，并广泛用于各种消费品。P450系统负责芳烃的脂肪和芳香羟基化，有几种形式，CYP1A2， CYP2B4和CYP2E1，与碳氢化合物代谢有关。这个过程需要P450和黄素蛋白nadph -细胞色素P450还原酶之间的功能相互作用。然而，总P450水平超过还原酶的比例为20:1。这些情况提出了微粒体电子传递链的酶是如何组织的基本问题。在之前的授权期间，我们证明了P450通过形成异质P450复合物相互作用。我们已经确定了CYP2B4-CYP1A2以及CYP1A2-CYP2E1之间的复合物。这些相互作用被证明对异种代谢有深远的影响，主要是由于nadph -细胞色素P450还原酶将电子转移到异质复合物中的P450的方式发生了改变。有趣的是，我们没有观察到CYP2B4-CYP2E1复合物对P450功能的影响。拟议的研究旨在扩展我们的研究，并解决与还原酶和P450的组织，它们在内质网内的相互作用，以及这些相互作用如何影响包括烷基苯代谢在内的外源代谢有关的问题。我们计划继续表征这些相互作用，检查(1)P450-P450相互作用的功能后果，(2)通过确定负责P450-P450复合物形成的区域来确定这些相互作用的结构基础，以及(3)P450-P450复合物形成的组织后果（即这种相互作用如何影响它们在内质网中的区域分布）。这些研究将增加我们对P450电子传递链如何组织的理解，并将提供P450系统在芳烃生物活化和活性氧生成中的作用的新重要信息-这一过程可能对化学毒性产生重大影响。公共卫生相关性：本提案的目的是检查细胞膜中P450系统酶的组织。p450的组织方式不仅决定了它们清除体内外来化合物的有效性，还决定了它们形成可导致毒性、癌症和衰老的活性化合物的能力。
