title: Purification and NH2-terminal sequence of cytochrome P-450 from kidney microsomes of untreated male rats.
abstract: The major form of cytochrome P-450, P-450K-5, was purified from kidney microsomes of untreated male rats with high-performance liquid chromatography with anion-exchange and hydroxylapatite columns. The monomeric molecular weight of P-450K-5 was 52000 on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and the CO-reduced absorption maximum was at 452 nm. P-450K-5 catalyzed the omega- and (omega-1)-hydroxylation of lauric acid, but was inefficient in the N-demethylation of benzphetamine and the O-dealkylation of 7-ethoxycoumarine. The NH2-terminal sequence of P-450K-5 was quite different from cytochrome P-450s purified from rat hepatic microsomes.
