Characterization of the cytochrome P-450IID subfamily in bovine liver. Nucleotide sequences and microheterogeneity.
To elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying drug detoxification, the structures of the members of the microsomal cytochrome P-450IID subfamily were analyzed by isolating, mapping and sequencing cytochrome P-450IID (CYP2D) cDNA clones from bovine liver. The screening was performed under nonstringent conditions so that most of the P-450IID subfamily members could be obtained. 114 of the 147 positive clones were classified into four groups on the basis of their restriction-enzyme maps. The maps of the four groups were highly similar, however, the clones of one group contained an insertion of approximately 500 bp in the coding region. Analysis of partial nucleotide sequences of several representative clones from each group showed that the bovine P-450IID subfamily in liver consisted of several, not many, highly similar members, differing by less than 7% in their nucleotide sequences. The location of the insertion found in the minor group corresponded to intron 7 and the GT/AG rule was found at the exon/intron boundary, suggesting that intron 7 was retained in this group. The complete nucleotide sequences of two clones from the major group were examined to determine the structures of the P-450IID subfamily in bovine liver. A full-length cDNA clone (1615 bp) and a partial cDNA clone (1538 bp) contained open reading frames encoding 500 and 487 amino acid residues, respectively. The partial clone lacked the nucleotide sequence corresponding to the first 13 N-terminal amino acid residues. The deduced amino acid sequences of the two clones were 98% similar, and 80% and 68% similar to those from human CYP2D6 and rat CYP2D1, respectively. Comparisons of the amino acid sequences of the P-450IID subfamily members showed the highly conserved C-terminal region of their molecules and the high similarity between the members in one species, especially in cattle and man.
