چکیده

Transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum cv Xanthi) plants expressing a genetically engineered fused enzyme between rat cytochrome P4501A1 (CYPlAl) and yeast NADPH-cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase were produced. The expression plasmid pCFC2 for the fused enzyme was constructed by insertion of the corresponding cDNA into the expression vector pNCOl under the control of the cauliflower mosaic virus 35.5 promoter and nopaline synthase gene terminator. l h e fused enzyme cDNA was integrated into tobacco genomes by Agrobaderium infection techniques. In transgenic tobacco plants, the fused enzyme protein was localized primarily in the microsomal fraction. l h e microsomal monooxygenase activities were approximately 10 times higher toward both 7-ethoxycoumarin and benzo[a]pyrene than in the control plant. The transgenic plants also showed resistance to the herbicide chlortoluron.

Engineering herbicide metabolism in tobacco and Arabidopsis with CYP76B1, a cytochrome P450 enzyme from Jerusalem artichoke.

The Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus) xenobiotic inducible cytochrome P450, CYP76B1, catalyzes rapid oxidative dealkylation of various phenylurea herbicides to yield nonphytotoxic metabolites. We have found that increased herbicide metabolism and tolerance can be achieved by ectopic constitutive expression of CYP76B1 in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) and Arabidopsis. Transformation with C...

Immunochemical characterization of NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase from Jerusalem artichoke and other higher plants.

Polyclonal antibodies were prepared against NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase purified from Jerusalem artichoke. These antibodies inhibited efficiently the NADPH-cytochrome c reductase activity of the purified enzyme, as well as of Jerusalem artichoke microsomes. Likewise, microsomal NADPH-dependent cytochrome P-450 mono-oxygenases (cinnamate and laurate hydroxylases) were efficiently inhibited....

Transgenic Rice and Potato Plants Expressing Human Cytochrome P450s Show Cross-tolerance to Herbicides by Detoxifying Them

Transgenic plants expressing various species of the detoxifying enzyme, cytochrome P450 monooxigenase from mammals, were bred by Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. The transgenic plants metabolized exogenous chemicals, including herbicides which they were able to tolerate. Because the enzymes had broad substrate specificity, the transgenic plants showed crosstolerance to several herbicides,...

Dynamic mobility of genetically expressed fusion protein between cytochrome P4501A1 and NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase in yeast microsomes.

A fusion protein of rat liver CYP1A1 with NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase was expressed genetically in yeast microsomal membranes. This flavo-cytochrome is active in 6-hydroxylation of zoxazolamine. Rotational diffusion of the fusion protein was examined by observing the flash-induced absorption anisotropy r(t) of the P450.CO complex. Theoretical analysis of r(t) was performed based on a "rotat...
