Phospholipid requirement for 2-acetamidofluorene N-and ring-hydroxylation by hamster liver microsomal cytochrome P-450 enzyme system.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: A phospholipid requirement of 2-acetamidofluorene N- and ring-hydroxylation was investigated with partially delipidated microsomal fraction from livers of 3-methylcholanthrene-pretreated hamsters. Butan-1-ol extraction of microsomal fraction removed 90% of the total lipid content without any appreciable effect on microsomal proteins. Such extracted microsomal fractions had much lower capacity to N- and ring-hydroxylate 2-acetamidofluorene: 25 and 44% of control respectively. Addition of butan-1-ol-extracted total lipid restored both oxidations to some extent, whereas addition of phosphatidylcholine fraction restored both oxidations almost completely. Addition of synthetic phospholipid, dilauroyl phosphatidylcholine, restored both oxidations to a large extent, whereas synthetic dipalmitoyl or distearoyl phosphatidylcholine was ineffective in restoring these oxidations.
