Digging Deeper into CYP3A Testosterone Metabolism: Kinetic, Regioselectivity, and Stereoselectivity Differences between CYP3A4/5 and CYP3A7.

ABSTRACT: The metabolism of testosterone to 6?-hydroxytestosterone (6?-OH-T) is a commonly used assay to evaluate human CYP3A enzyme activities. However, previous reports have indicated that CYP3A7 also produces 2?-hydroxytestosterone (2?-OH-T) and that a 2?-OH-T/6?-OH-T ratio may be a unique endogenous biomarker of the activity of the enzyme. Until now, the full metabolite and kinetic profile for testosterone hydroxylation by CYP3A7 has not been fully examined. To this end, we performed a complete kinetic analysis of the 6?-OH-T, 2?-OH-T, and 2?-hydroxytestosterone metabolites for recombinant Supersome CYP3A4, CYP3A5, and CYP3A7 enzymes and monitored metabolism in fetal and adult human liver microsomes for comparison. In general, a decrease in the velocity of the reaction was observed between CYP3A4 and the two other enzymes, with CYP3A7 showing the lowest metabolic capacity. Interestingly, we found that the 2?-OH-T/6?-OH-T ratio varied with substrate concentration when testosterone was incubated with CYP3A7, suggesting that this ratio would likely not function well as a biomarker for CYP3A7 activity. In silico docking studies revealed at least two different binding modes for testosterone between CYP3A4 and CYP3A7. In CYP3A4, the most energetically favorable docking mode places testosterone in a position with the methyl groups directed toward the heme iron, which is more favorable for oxidation at C6?, whereas for CYP3A7 the testosterone methyl groups are positioned away from the heme, which is more favorable for an oxidation event at C2? In conclusion, our data indicate an alternative binding mode for testosterone in CYP3A7 that favors the 2?-hydroxylation, suggesting significant structural differences in its active site compared with CYP3A4/5.

The metabolism of testosterone to 6β-hydroxytestosterone (6β-OH-T) is a commonly used assay to evaluate human CYP3A enzyme activities. However, previous reports have indicated that CYP3A7 also produces 2α-hydroxytestosterone (2α-OH-T) and that a 2α-OH-T/6β-OH-T ratio may be a unique endogenous biomarker of the activity of the enzyme. Until now, the full metabolite and kinetic profile for testosterone hydroxylation by CYP3A7 has not been fully examined. T ...[more]

Project description:Peptides presented by MHC molecules on the cell surface, or the immunopeptidome, play an important role in the adaptive arm of the immune response. Antigen processing for MHC class I molecules is a ubiquitous pathway present in all nucleated cells which generates and presents peptides of both self and non-self-origin. Peptides with post-translational modifications represent one category of peptides presented by MHC class I molecules. However, owing to the complexity of self-peptides presented by cells, the diversity of peptides with post-translational modifications is not well-studied. In this study, we carried out MHC Class I immunopeptidomics analysis of Loucy T-cell leukemia and A375 malignant melanoma cell line to characterize the diversity of post-translational modifications of MHC class I-bound peptides. Using high resolution mass spectrometry, we identified 25,761 MHC-bound peptides across both cell lines using Bolt and Sequest search engines. The enrichment method was highly specific as ~ 90% of the peptides were of typical length (8-12 amino acids long) and the motifs were expected based on previously reported motifs for MHC I alleles. Among the MHC-bound peptides, we identified phosphorylation as a major post-translational modification followed by deamidation. We observed site-specific localization of these post-translational modifications, at position P4 for phosphorylated peptides and position P3 for deamidated peptides. We identified a smaller number of peptides with acetylated and methylated lysine, possibly due to very low stoichiometric levels of these PTMs compared to phosphorylation and deamidation. Using PEAKS de novo sequencing algorithm, we identified spliced peptides that accounted for ~ 5-7% of MHC-bound peptides that were otherwise similar in their features as normal MHC-bound peptides. We validated the identity of several post-translationally modified peptides and spliced peptides through mass spectrometric analysis of synthetic peptides. Our study confirms post-translationally modified peptides to be present at low stoichiometric levels along with unusual spliced peptides through unbiased identification using high resolution mass spectrometry.Supplementary informationThe online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s42485-021-00066-x.
