  • Identification and Developmental Expression of the Full Complement Of
    Goldstone et al. BMC Genomics 2010, 11:643 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2164/11/643 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Identification and developmental expression of the full complement of Cytochrome P450 genes in Zebrafish Jared V Goldstone1, Andrew G McArthur2, Akira Kubota1, Juliano Zanette1,3, Thiago Parente1,4, Maria E Jönsson1,5, David R Nelson6, John J Stegeman1* Abstract Background: Increasing use of zebrafish in drug discovery and mechanistic toxicology demands knowledge of cytochrome P450 (CYP) gene regulation and function. CYP enzymes catalyze oxidative transformation leading to activation or inactivation of many endogenous and exogenous chemicals, with consequences for normal physiology and disease processes. Many CYPs potentially have roles in developmental specification, and many chemicals that cause developmental abnormalities are substrates for CYPs. Here we identify and annotate the full suite of CYP genes in zebrafish, compare these to the human CYP gene complement, and determine the expression of CYP genes during normal development. Results: Zebrafish have a total of 94 CYP genes, distributed among 18 gene families found also in mammals. There are 32 genes in CYP families 5 to 51, most of which are direct orthologs of human CYPs that are involved in endogenous functions including synthesis or inactivation of regulatory molecules. The high degree of sequence similarity suggests conservation of enzyme activities for these CYPs, confirmed in reports for some steroidogenic enzymes (e.g. CYP19, aromatase; CYP11A, P450scc; CYP17, steroid 17a-hydroxylase), and the CYP26 retinoic acid hydroxylases. Complexity is much greater in gene families 1, 2, and 3, which include CYPs prominent in metabolism of drugs and pollutants, as well as of endogenous substrates.

  • Conformational Changes in Binding of Substrates with Human Cytochrome P450 Enzymes
    Book of oral abstracts 100 Conformational changes in binding of substrates with human cytochrome P450 enzymes F. Peter Guengerich, Clayton J. Wilkey, Michael J. Reddish, Sarah M. Glass, and Thanh T. N. Phan Department of Biochemistry, Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, Nashville, TN, USA Introduction. Extensive evidence now exists that P450 enzymes can exist in multiple conformations, at least in the substrate-bound forms (e.g., crystallography). This multiplicity can be the result of either an induced fit mechanism or conformational selection (selective substrate binding to one of two or more equilibrating P450 conformations). Aims. Kinetic approaches can be used to distinguish between induced fit and conformational selection models. The same energy is involved in reaching the final state, regardless of the kinetic path. Methods. Stopped-flow absorbance and fluorescence measurements were made with recombinant human P450 enzymes. Analysis utilized kinetic modeling software (KinTek Explorer®). Results. P450 17A1 binding to its steroid ligands (pregnenolone and progesterone and the 17-hydroxy derivatives) is dominated by a conformational selection process, as judged by (a) decreasing rates of substrate binding as a function of substrate concentration, (b) opposite patterns of the dependence of binding rates as a function of varying concentrations of (i) substrate and (ii) enzyme, and (c) modeling of the data in KinTek Explorer. The inhibitory drugs orteronel and abiraterone bind P450 17A1 in multi-step processes, apparently in different ways. The dye Nile Red is also a substrate for P450 17A1 and its sequential binding to the enzyme can be resolved in fluorescence and absorbance changes. P450s 2C8, 2D6, 2E1, and 4A11 have also been analyzed with regard to substrate binding and utilize primarily conformational selection models, as revealed by analysis of binding rates vs.

  • Mitochondrial Endocrinology – Mitochondria As Key to Hormones and Metabolism
    Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology 379 (2013) 1–1 Contents lists available at SciVerse ScienceDirect Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/mce Editorial Mitochondrial endocrinology – Mitochondria as key to hormones and metabolism Mitochondria are puzzling organelles, which provided exciting insights into cellular function as recently reviewed by one of its pio- neers (Schatz, 2013). But still many of their features in (patho)phys- iologic conditions and in disease states are not fully understood. Despite their critical role for all animal organisms, their impact on several endocrine and metabolic functions is of specific importance. Not do they only host several metabolic pathways, including the tri- carboxylic (Krebs) cycle and b-oxidation, mitochondria are also the key to lipid, cholesterol and hormone biosynthesis as well as main- tain the cytosolic free calcium concentration. Free cytosolic calcium in turn serves as cellular signal in divergent pathways, such as hor- monal signaling (Stark and Roden, 2007). On the other hand, certain hormones exert their central endocrine action directly or indirectly via affecting mitochondrial function in various tissues and diver- gent cell-types. The growing interest of current research in this field stimulated us to compile contributions to hot topics addressing aspects of so- called mitochondrial endocrinology (Wrutniak-Cabello et al., 2002). First, studies of humans with genetically confirmed mito- chondrial abnormalities, commonly called mitochondrial diseases, can serve as nature’s proof of the importance of mitochondria also for endocrine function, which is not limited to the pancreatic ß cell by causing mitochondrial diabetes. These inborn diseases might therefore help to better understand abnormal mitochondrial func- References tion in humans.

(1999) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 369, 1-10. Nelson et al. 2004 Comparison of cytochrome P450 (CYP) genes from the mouse and human genomes, including nomenclature recommendations for genes, pseudogenes, and alternative-splice variants Pharmacogenetics 14, 1-18 Objectives: This lecture provides a survey of the importance of cytochrome P450s in humans. Please do not memorize the pathways or structures given in the notes or in the lecture. Do be aware of the major categories of P450 function in human metabolism, like synthesis and elimination of cholesterol, regulation of blood hemostasis, steroid and arachidonic acid metabolism, drug metabolism. Be particularly aware of drug interactions and the important role of CYP2D6 and CYP3A4 in this process. You will not be asked historical questions about P450 discovery. You will not be asked what enzyme causes what disease. Understand that P450s are found in two different compartments and that they have two different electron transfer chains in these compartments. Understand that P450s are often phase I drug metabolism enzymes and what this means. Be aware that rodents and humans are quite different in their P450 content. The same P450 families are present but the number of genes is much higher in the mouse. What is the relevance to drug studies? Understand that P450s can be regulated or induced by certain hormones or chemicals. Know that the levels of individual P450s can be monitored by non-invasive procedures.

In the last few decades CYP11B1 (11-β-hydroxylase) and CYP11B2 (aldosterone synthase), key enzymes CYP11B1 (11-β-hydroxylase) in the biosynthesis of cortisol and aldosterone, respectively, have been also investigated as targets for the CYP11B2 (aldosterone synthase) identification of new potent and selective agents for the treatment of Cushing's syndrome, impaired wound Wound healing Cortisol healing and cardiovascular diseases. Steroidogenesis In an effort to improve activity and synthetic feasibility of our different series of xanthone-based CYP11B1 and CYP11B2 inhibitors, a small series of imidazolylmethylbenzophenone-based compounds, previously re- ported as CYP19 inhibitors, was also tested on these new targets, in order to explore the role of a more flexible scaffold for the inhibition of CYP11B1 and -B2 isoforms.

  • The Catalytic Mechanism of Steroidogenic Cytochromes P450
    catalysts Review The Catalytic Mechanism of Steroidogenic Cytochromes P450 from All-Atom Simulations: Entwinement with Membrane Environment, Redox Partners, and Post-Transcriptional Regulation Angelo Spinello , Ida Ritacco and Alessandra Magistrato * CNR-IOM-Democritos c/o International School for Advanced Studies (SISSA), Via Bonomea 265, 34136 Trieste, Italy; [email protected] (A.S.); [email protected] (I.R.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +39-040-378-7520 Received: 29 November 2018; Accepted: 4 January 2019; Published: 14 January 2019 Abstract: Cytochromes P450 (CYP450s) promote the biosynthesis of steroid hormones with major impact on the onset of diseases such as breast and prostate cancers. By merging distinct functions into the same catalytic scaffold, steroidogenic CYP450s enhance complex chemical transformations with extreme efficiency and selectivity. Mammalian CYP450s and their redox partners are membrane-anchored proteins, dynamically associating to form functional machineries. Mounting evidence signifies that environmental factors are strictly intertwined with CYP450s catalysis. Atomic-level simulations have the potential to provide insights into the catalytic mechanism of steroidogenic CYP450s and on its regulation by environmental factors, furnishing information often inaccessible to experimental means. In this review, after an introduction of computational methods commonly employed to tackle these systems, we report the current knowledge on three steroidogenic CYP450s—CYP11A1, CYP17A1, and CYP19A1—endowed

  • Gene Profiling of Human Fetal and Adult Adrenals
    209 Gene profiling of human fetal and adult adrenals W E Rainey, B R Carr, Z-N Wang and C R Parker Jr1 Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Division of Reproductive Endocrinology, University of Texas, Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, Texas 75390, USA 1Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, Alabama 35294, USA (Requests for offprints should be addressed to W E Rainey) Abstract The mechanisms that lead to the steroidogenic differences differences were observed for transcripts that encode in the human fetal adrenal (HFA) and adult adrenal gland IGF-II (25-fold higher in HFA) and 3-hydroxysteroid are not known. However, gene expression clearly plays a dehydrogenase (24-fold higher in adult). Among the other critical role in defining their distinct steroidogenic and genes, transcripts related to sterol biosynthesis or to growth structural phenotypes. We used DNA microarrays to and development were higher in the HFA than adult compare expression levels of several thousand transcripts adrenals. Transcripts concerned with cellular immunity between the HFA and adult adrenal gland. Total RNA and signal transduction were preferentially expressed in was isolated from 18 HFA and 12 adult adrenal glands. the adult adrenal.
