title: N-terminal truncated cytochrome P450 2B4: catalytic activities and reduction with alternative electron sources.
abstract: It was shown that riboflavin binds to the truncated cytochrome P450 2B4 and forms a complex with the K(d) = 26 microM. Noncovalent complex of truncated (Delta2-27) cytochrome P450 2B4 with riboflavin was essential for electron transfer realization and catalyzed the NADH-dependent and hydrogen peroxide-supported monooxygenase reactions of aminopyrine N-demethylation and aniline p-hydroxylation. Flavocytochrome molecular maquette was capable of supporting photoactivatable electron transfer and could be photoreduced and electroreduced quantitatively in the absence of pyridine nucleotides.
