Incubation of rat liver microsomal fractions with arachidonic acid in the presence of NADPH results in the formation of three novel monohydroxylated fatty acid metabolites. Utilizing chromatographic and mass spectral techniques, these metabolites have been identified as 16-, 17-, and 18-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids. The NADPH-dependent microsomal metabolism of arachidonic acid to 16-, 17-, 18-, and 19-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids is induced after animal treatment with beta-naphthoflavone. Reconstitution of the arachidonic acid oxygenase utilizing individual purified cytochrome P-450 enzymes demonstrates regioselectivity, controlled by the protein catalyst, for the hydroxylation of the sp3 carbon atoms adjacent to the methyl end of the fatty acid.

D010084 Oxidation-Reduction A chemical reaction in which an electron is transferred from one molecule to another. The electron-donating molecule is the reducing agent or reductant; the electron-accepting molecule is the oxidizing agent or oxidant. Reducing and oxidizing agents function as conjugate reductant-oxidant pairs or redox pairs (Lehninger, Principles of Biochemistry, 1982, p471). Redox,Oxidation Reduction

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.
