Modeling of interactions between xenobiotics and cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes
The adverse effects to humans and environment of only few chemicals are well known. Absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) are the steps of pharmaco/toxicokinetics that determine the internal dose of chemicals to which the organism is exposed. Of all the xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes, the cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes are the most important due to their abundance and versa...
متن کاملHeterologous expression of human drug-metabolizing enzymes.
This article is a report on a symposium held at the March 1997 meeting of the American Society for Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics in San Diego. Current developments in the heterologous expression of cytochrome P450, NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase, glutathione transferase, and UDP-glucuronosyltransferase enzymes are described. Systems include bacteria, insect cells, and transient an...
متن کاملHeterologous expression of two trichothecene P450 genes in Fusarium verticillioides.
Fusarium graminearum Z-3639 and F. sporotrichioides NRRL3299 produce the trichothecene mycotoxins 15-acetyldeoxynivalenol and T-2 toxin, respectively. These toxins differ in oxygenation at C-4, C-7, and C-8. In F. sporotrichioides, Tri1 (FsTri1) controls C-8 hydroxylation. To determine the function of an apparent F. graminearum Tri1 (FgTri1) homolog, both FsTri1 and FgTri1 genes were heterologo...
متن کاملmRNA distribution and heterologous expression of orphan cytochrome P450 20A1.
Cytochrome P450 (P450) 20A1 is one of the so-called "orphan" P450s without assigned biological function. mRNA expression was detected in human liver, and extrahepatic expression was noted in several human brain regions, including substantia nigra, hippocampus, and amygdala, using conventional polymerase chain reaction and RNA dot blot analysis. Adult human liver contained 3-fold higher overall ...
متن کاملProtocol for Heterologous Expression of Insect Odourant Receptors in Drosophila
Insect olfactory receptors (ORs) are tuned to volatile chemicals, they are expressed in the membrane of olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs), housed in sensilla on the antenna. The olfactory apparatus is under strong selection and ORs are tuned to vital chemical signals, mediating social communication, feeding and oviposition, and avoidance of predators and pathogens. An emerging technique to relia...
