Layer-by-Layer Assembly of Nanosized Membrane Fractions for the Assessment of Cytochrome P450 Xenobiotic Metabolism.

ABSTRACT: Herein, we report the use of sequential layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly to design nanostructured films made of recombinant bacterial membrane fractions (MF), which overexpress cytochrome P450 (CYP) and cytochrome P450 reductase. The ability to incorporate MF in LbL multilayered films is demonstrated by an in situ quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring using poly-l-lysine or poly-l-ornithine as a polycation. Results show that MF preserve a remarkable CYP1A2 catalytic property in the adsorbed phase. Moreover, atomic force microscopy images reveal that MF mostly adopt a flattened conformation in the adsorbed phase with an extensive tendency to aggregate within the multilayered films, which is more pronounced when increasing the number of bilayers. Interestingly, this behavior seems to enhance the ability of embedded MF to remain active after repeated uses. The proposed strategy constitutes a practical alternative for the immobilization of active CYP enzymes. Besides their fundamental interest, MF-based multilayers are useful nano-objects for the creation of new biomimetic reactors for the assessment of xenobiotic metabolism.

Project description:Genes vary greatly in their long-term phylogenetic stability and there exists no general explanation for these differences. The cytochrome P450 (CYP450) gene superfamily is well suited to investigating this problem because it is large and well studied, and it includes both stable and unstable genes. CYP450 genes encode oxidase enzymes that function in metabolism of endogenous small molecules and in detoxification of xenobiotic compounds. Both types of enzymes have been intensively studied. My analysis of ten nearly complete vertebrate genomes indicates that each genome contains 50-80 CYP450 genes, which are about evenly divided between phylogenetically stable and unstable genes. The stable genes are characterized by few or no gene duplications or losses in species ranging from bony fish to mammals, whereas unstable genes are characterized by frequent gene duplications and losses (birth-death evolution) even among closely related species. All of the CYP450 genes that encode enzymes with known endogenous substrates are phylogenetically stable. In contrast, most of the unstable genes encode enzymes that function as xenobiotic detoxifiers. Nearly all unstable CYP450 genes in the mouse and human genomes reside in a few dense gene clusters, forming unstable gene islands that arose by recurrent local gene duplication. Evidence for positive selection in amino acid sequence is restricted to these unstable CYP450 genes, and sites of selection are associated with substrate-binding regions in the protein structure. These results can be explained by a general model in which phylogenetically stable genes have core functions in development and physiology, whereas unstable genes have accessory functions associated with unstable environmental interactions such as toxin and pathogen exposure. Unstable gene islands in vertebrates share some functional properties with bacterial genomic islands, though they arise by local gene duplication rather than horizontal gene transfer.
