The present study characterizes the profile of cDNAs from the human P450IIC subfamily in a library from one individual, and it describes three new members of this subfamily (IIC17, IIC18, and IIC19) isolated from two human cDNA libraries. cDNA libraries were constructed from two human livers which differed phenotypically in the hepatic content of P450 HLx (IIC8). The library from the phenotypically low HLx individual was screened by using a cDNA for rat liver P450IIC13 and an oligonucleotide probe for human IIC8. One clone, 245c, was isolated which clearly represents a new member of the human P450IIC subfamily (IIC17). This clone lacked the first 358 nucleotides at the N-terminus but was only 91% homologous in its nucleic acid sequence to IIC9 and 79% homologous to IIC8. Near-full-length clones for IIC9 were also isolated from this library, but no clones for IIC8 were found. Northern blots indicated that the mRNA for IIC8 was low or absent in this individual. A second cDNA library (from a liver phenotypically high in HLx) was then screened. Eighty-three essentially full-length (greater than 1.8 kb) clones belonging to the IIC subfamily were isolated from this library. These include full-length clones for two additional new members of the IIC subfamily. Clones 29c and 6b appear to be allelic variants (IIC18), differing by one nucleotide (one amino acid change) in the coding region. Clone 11a represents a full-length clone for a third new P450 (IIC19).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

D003577 Cytochrome P-450 Enzyme System A superfamily of hundreds of closely related HEMEPROTEINS found throughout the phylogenetic spectrum, from animals, plants, fungi, to bacteria. They include numerous complex monooxygenases (MIXED FUNCTION OXYGENASES). In animals, these P-450 enzymes serve two major functions: (1) biosynthesis of steroids, fatty acids, and bile acids; (2) metabolism of endogenous and a wide variety of exogenous substrates, such as toxins and drugs (BIOTRANSFORMATION). They are classified, according to their sequence similarities rather than functions, into CYP gene families (>40% homology) and subfamilies (>59% homology). For example, enzymes from the CYP1, CYP2, and CYP3 gene families are responsible for most drug metabolism.

D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D005810 Multigene Family A set of genes descended by duplication and variation from some ancestral gene. Such genes may be clustered together on the same chromosome or dispersed on different chromosomes. Examples of multigene families include those that encode the hemoglobins, immunoglobulins, histocompatibility antigens, actins, tubulins, keratins, collagens, heat shock proteins, salivary glue proteins, chorion proteins, cuticle proteins, yolk proteins, and phaseolins, as well as histones, ribosomal RNA, and transfer RNA genes. The latter three are examples of reiterated genes, where hundreds of identical genes are present in a tandem array.

D006899 Mixed Function Oxygenases Widely distributed enzymes that carry out oxidation-reduction reactions in which one atom of the oxygen molecule is incorporated into the organic substrate; the other oxygen atom is reduced and combined with hydrogen ions to form water. They are also known as monooxygenases or hydroxylases. These reactions require two substrates as reductants for each of the two oxygen atoms. There are different classes of monooxygenases depending on the type of hydrogen-providing cosubstrate (COENZYMES) required in the mixed-function oxidation.
