title: Metabolism of 32-oxo-24,25-dihydrolanosterols by partially purified cytochrome P-450(14DM) from rat liver microsomes.
abstract: Metabolism of 32-oxo-24,25-dihydrolanosterols (3 beta-hydroxylanost-8-en-32- al (4,delta 8-CHO) and 3 beta-hydroxylanost-7-en-32-al (5,delta 7-CHO)) was studied in a reconstituted system consisting of rat liver partially purified cytochrome P-450, which catalyzes lanosterol 14-demethylation (P-450(14DM)), and reduced nicotineamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH)-cytochrome P-450 reductase. The reconstituted system converted delta 8-CHO to 4,4-dimethyl-5 alpha-cholesta-8,14-dien-3 beta-ol (2, 8, 14-Diene), which corresponds to the 14-deformylated product. delta 7-CHO, the isomer of delta 8-CHO, was not converted to the corresponding 14-deformylated product. The apparent Km value of cytochrome P-450(14DM) for delta 8-CHO was about 1/20 of that for 24,25-dihydrolanosterol (1, DHL). The metabolism of delta 8-CHO was inhibited by 7-oxo-24,25-dihydrolanosterol (6, 7-oxo-DHL), which is a potent inhibitor of cholesterol biosynthesis from lanosterol or DHL. However, the metabolism of delta 8-CHO was less inhibited by 7-oxo-DHL than that of DHL.
