Two different forms of cytochrome P-450, highly active in the omega-hydroxylation of prostaglandin A, and the omega- and (omega-1)-hydroxylation of fatty acids (P-450ka-1 and P-450ka-2), have been purified from kidney cortex microsomes of rabbits treated with di(2-ethylhexyl)-phthalate. On the basis of the peptide map patterns and NH2-terminal amino acid sequence, P-450ka-1 was determined to be a new form of omega-hydroxylase cytochrome P-450, whereas P-450ka-2 is identical to P-450ka reported earlier. The first 20 NH2-terminal amino acid sequence (ALNPTRLPGSLSGLLQVAGL) and (ALSPTRLPGSFSGFLQAAGL) of P-450ka-1 and P-450ka-2 showed 90 and 80% homology with that of the lung prostaglandin omega-hydroxylase, respectively, suggesting that these three cytochromes P-450 are members of the same omega-hydroxylase cytochrome P-450 gene family.

D008861 Microsomes Artifactual vesicles formed from the endoplasmic reticulum when cells are disrupted. They are isolated by differential centrifugation and are composed of three structural features: rough vesicles, smooth vesicles, and ribosomes. Numerous enzyme activities are associated with the microsomal fraction.

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.
