title: Comparative study of monomeric reconstituted and membrane microsomal monooxygenase systems of the rabbit liver. I. Properties of NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase and cytochrome P450 LM2 (2B4) monomers.
abstract: Oligomers and monomers of NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase and cytochrome P450 LM2 (2B4) isolated from the liver microsomes of phenobarbital-treated rabbits were examined for physicochemical properties and catalytic activities. As measured using laser correlation spectroscopy the particle sizes of NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase and cytochrome P450 LM2 oligomers were 14.8 +/- 1.7 and 19.2 +/- 1.4 nm, respectively. Twenty-four-hour incubation with Emulgen 913 at 4 degrees C at a molar ratio of 1:100 led to the monomerization of NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase and cytochrome P450 LM2 oligomers, the particle sizes diminishing to 6.1 +/- 1.3 and 5.2 +/- 0.4 nm, respectively. The thermal stability of NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase monomers was the same as that of oligomers, whereas cytochrome P450 LM2 monomers were less thermostable than oligomers and cytochrome P450 in microsomes. Similar to cytochrome P450 LM2 oligomers and the microsomal hemoprotein, cytochrome P450 LM2 monomers formed complexes with type I and II substrates, but with Kd values higher than those of microsomes and cytochrome P450 LM2 oligomers. Kinetic parameters (Vmax and Km) of H2O2- and cumene hydroperoxide-dependent oxidation of benzphetamine and aniline in the presence of cytochrome P450 LM2 oligomers, monomers, and microsomes were determined. Peroxidase activities of the oligomers and monomers were the same, but were lower than those of microsomes. Thus the substitution of protein-protein interactions in cytochrome P450 LM2 oligomers with protein-detergent interactions in the monomers did not influence the catalytic properties of the hemoprotein.
