1. 1,3-Cyclohexadiene exhibits type I binding spectra with microsomal cytochrome P-450 of either untreated, or phenobarbital- or 3-methylcholanthrene-treated mice. In all cases, two values of Ks can be measured, indicating a different affinity of 1,3-cyclohexadiene towards the cytochrome P-450 species. 2. Mouse-liver microsomal mono-oxygenase metabolizes 1,3-cyclohexadiene to the corresponding mono-epoxide, which is rapidly hydrolysed to trans-3-cyclohexene-1,2-diol and trans-2-cyclohexene-1,4-diol. This hydrolysis was proved to be essentially nonenzymic. 3. A simple gas-chromatographic method was used to quantify the diols and to determine the kinetic constants (Km and Vmax) of 1,3-cyclohexadiene mono-epoxidase. 4. Epoxide formation, as determined by diol production from 1,3-cyclohexadiene metabolism, was NADPH- and O2-dependent and was inhibited by CO and SKF-525A.

D009249 NADP Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate. A coenzyme composed of ribosylnicotinamide 5'-phosphate (NMN) coupled by pyrophosphate linkage to the 5'-phosphate adenosine 2',5'-bisphosphate. It serves as an electron carrier in a number of reactions, being alternately oxidized (NADP+) and reduced (NADPH).

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.
