Hydrolases metabolism

The metabolism of foreign compounds (xenobiotics) often takes place in two consecutive reactions, classically referred to as phases one and two. Phase I is a functionalization of the lipophilic compound that can be used to attach a conjugate in Phase II. The conjugated product is usually sufficiently water-soluble to be excretable into the urine. The most important biotransformations of Phase I are aromatic and aliphatic hydroxylations catalyzed by cytochromes P450. Other Phase I enzymes are for example epoxide hydrolases or carboxylesterases. Typical Phase II enzymes are UDP-glucuronosyltrans-ferases, sulfotransferases, N-acetyltransferases and methyltransferases e.g. thiopurin S-methyltransferase. [Pg.450]

The microsomal fraction consists mainly of vesicles (microsomes) derived from the endoplasmic reticulum (smooth and rough). It contains cytochrome P450 and NADPH/cytochrome P450 reductase (collectively the microsomal monooxygenase system), carboxylesterases, A-esterases, epoxide hydrolases, glucuronyl transferases, and other enzymes that metabolize xenobiotics. The 105,000 g supernatant contains soluble enzymes such as glutathione-5-trans-ferases, sulfotransferases, and certain esterases. The 11,000 g supernatant contains all of the types of enzyme listed earlier. [Pg.46]

Emphasis is given to the critical role of metabolism, both detoxication and activation, in determining toxicity. The principal enzymes involved are described, including monooxygenases, esterases, epoxide hydrolases, glutathione-5 -transferases, and glucuronyl transferases. Attention is given to the influence of enzyme induction and enzyme inhibition on toxicity. [Pg.64]

Figure 53-1. Simplified scheme showing how metabolism of a xenobiotic can result in cell injury, immunologic damage, or cancer. In this instance, the conversion of the xenobiotic to a reactive metabolite is catalyzed by a cytochrome P450,and the conversion of the reactive metabolite (eg, an epoxide) to a nontoxic metabolite is catalyzed either by a GSH S-transferase or by epoxide hydrolase.

The biosynthesis of adenosine is theoretically controlled by several processes namely (1) the biosynthesis of adenosine from AMP by 5 -nucleotidase [EC 3.1.3.5], (2) from S-adenosyl homocysteine by S-adenosyl homocystine hydrolase [EC 3.3.1.1], (3) the metabolism of adenosine to AMP by adenosine kinase [EC 2.7.1.20], and (4) to inosine by adenosine deaminase (ADA) [EC 3.5.4.2], Interestingly, both 5 -nucleotidase and ADA activities were found to be highest in the leptomeninges of rat brain in contrast, the adenosine kinase activity was widely distributed throughout the brain parenchyma, which has negligible ADA activity... [Pg.372]

Poly(L-malate) [poly(malic acid) (PMA)], is a water-soluble polyanion produced by slime molds and some yeasts such as Physarum polycephalum or Aureobasidium pullulans, respectively. Its function and metabolism has been studied during the last few years [122-125]. Recently, several PMA-degrad-ing bacteria have been isolated, and a cytoplasmic membrane-bound PMA hydrolase was purified from Comamonas acidovans strain 7789 [126] that... [Pg.312]

It was recently reported that. >97% of BaP 4,5-epoxide metabolically formed from the metabolism of BaP in a reconstituted enzyme system containing purified cytochrome P-450c (P-448) is the 4S,5R enantiomer (24). The epoxide was determined by formation, separation and quantification of the diastereomeric trans-addition products of glutathione. Recently a BaP 4,5-epoxide was isolated from a metabolite mixture obtained from the metabolism of BaP by liver microsomes from 3-methylcholanthrene-treated Sprague-Dawley rats in the presence of the epoxide hydrolase inhibitor 3,3,3-trichloropropylene oxide, and was found to contain a 4S,5R/4R,5S enantiomer ratio of 94 6 (Chiu et. al., unpublished results). However, the content of the 4S,5R enantiomer was <60% when liver microsomes from untreated and phenobarbital-treated rats were used as the enzyme sources. Because BaP 4R,5S-epoxide is also hydrated predominantly to 4R,5R-dihydro-... [Pg.29]

It was shown that microsomal epoxide hydrolase-catalyzed trans-addition of water to BaP 9,10-epoxide occurs stereospecifically at the C-9 position (15). Since BaP is metabolized essentially to an optically pure 9R,10R-dihydrodiol (13 and L5 Table I), the 9,10-epoxide formed in BaP metabolism must have 9S,10R absolute stereochemistry (Figure 1). Similarly, the 7,8-epoxide formed in BaP metabolism is hydrated specifically at the C-8 position to form the 7R,8R-dihydrodiol (14.21). Hence the enzymatically formed 7,8-epoxide intermediate has 7R,8S absolute stereochemistry (Figure 1). Although the 7R,8R-dihydrodiol is formed almost exclusively from BaP metabolism in rat liver microsomes (Table I) and in bovine bronchial explants (25). the 7S,8S-dihydrodiol is also formed from BaP metabolism in mouse skin epidermis in vivo (5). [Pg.31]

In contrast to the metabolism of BA and BaP, the 5,6-dihydrodiols formed in the metabolism of DMBA by liver microsomes from untreated, phenobarbital-treated, and 3-methylcholanthrene-treated rats are found to have 5R,6R/5S,6S enantiomer ratios of 11 89, 6 94, and 5 95, respectively (7.49 and Table II). The enantiomeric contents of the dihydrodiols were determined by a CSP-HPLC method (7.43). The 5,6-epoxide formed in the metabolism of DMBA by liver microsomes from 3MC-treated rats was found to contain predominantly (>97%) the 5R,6S-enantiomer which is converted by microsomal epoxide hydrolase-catalyzed hydration predominantly (>95%) at the R-center (C-5 position, see Figure 3) to yield the 5S,6S-dihydrodiol (49). In the metabolism of 12-methyl-BA, the 5S,6S-dihydrodiol was also found to be the major enantiomer formed (50) and this stereoselective reaction is similar to the reactions catalyzed by rat liver microsomes prepared with different enzyme inducers (unpublished results). Labeling studies using molecular oxygen-18 indicate that 5R,68-epoxide is the precursor of the 5S,6S-dihydrodiol formed in the metabolism of 12-methyl-BA (51). [Pg.34]

The 8,9- and 10,11-dihydrodiols formed in the metabolism of BA and DMBA respectively are all highly enriched (>90%) in R,R enantiomers (Table III). Labeling experiments using molecular oxygen-18 in the in vitro metabolism of the respective parent compounds and subsequent mass spectral analyses of dihydrodiol metabolites and their acid-catalyzed dehydration products indicated that microsomal epoxide hydrolase-catalyzed hydration reactions occurred exclusively at the nonbenzylic carbons of the metabolically formed epoxide intermediates (unpublished results). These findings indicate that the 8,9- and 10,11-epoxide intermediates, formed in the metabolism of BA and DMBA respectively, contain predominantly the 8R,9S and 10S,11R enantiomer, respectively. These stereoselective epoxidation reactions are relatively insensitive to the cytochrome P-450 isozyme contents of different rat liver microsomal preparations (Table III). [Pg.35]

In this section, we summarize information about five Ci enzymes involved in metabolism of 5-formyl-THF (5-CHO-THF) and formate, whose existence was predicted from genomics data. 5-Formyltetrahydrofolate cycloligase (5-FCL) and S-formylglutathione hydrolase have since been shown to catalyze the anticipated reactions the other three enzymes (10-formyl-THF deformylase, formamidase, and sarcosine oxidase) are still putative. [Pg.22]

Pure human CESs (hCEl and hCE2), a rabbit CES (rCE), and two rat CESs (Hydrolases A and B) were used to study the hydrolytic metabolism of the following pyrethroids lR-trans-resmethrin (bioresmethrin), 1RS-1runs-permethrin, and 1RS-r/.v-pennethrin [28], hCEl and hCE2 hydrolyzed /ram-pemiethrin 8- and 28-fold more efficiently than m-permethrin (when kcat/Km values were compared), respectively. In contrast, hydrolysis of bioresmethrin was catalyzed efficiently by hCEl, but not by hCE2. The kinetic parameters for the pure rat and rabbit CESs were qualitatively similar to the human CESs when hydrolysis rates of the investigated pyrethroids were evaluated. Further, a comparison of pyrethroid hydrolysis by hepatic microsomes from rats, mice, and humans indicated that the rates for each compound were similar between species. [Pg.122]

NADPH-independent hydrolytic metabolism. The CLint for deltamethrin was estimated to be twice as rapid in humans as in rats on a per kg body weight basis. Metabolism by purified rat and human CESs was used to examine further the species differences in hydrolysis of deltamethrin and esfenvalerate. Results of CES metabolism revealed that hCEl was markedly more active toward deltamethrin than the Class I rat CESs, hydrolase A and B, and the Class II human CES, hCE2 however, hydrolase A metabolized esfenvalerate twice as fast as hCEl, whereas hydrolase B and hCEl hydrolyzed esfenvalerate at equal rates. These studies demonstrated a significant species difference in the in vitro pathways of biotransformation of deltamethrin in rat and human liver microsomes, which was due in part to differences in the intrinsic activities of rat and human CESs. [Pg.124]
