Özet

Cytochrome P450LgM2(2B) purified from sheep lung microsomes was treated chemically using ethylacetimidate at pH 8.5 for 2 hours at room temperature. Ethylacetimidate modification of essential lysine residues of lung P450LgM2 caused an inhibition of catalytic activity P450 towards substrate benzphetamine. Benzphetamine N-demethylase activity of the reconstituted system containing modified P450LgM2 and purified sheep lung NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase was inhibited by 93%. This inhibition may be due to an impaired interaction of P450LgM2 and reductase via electrostatic farces.
