Abstract
A cytochrome P-450 cDNA clone, designated pP450PCN2, homologous to the previously characterized pregnenolone 16 alpha-carbonitrile (PCN)-induced P-450 cDNA (pP450PCN1; F. J. Gonzalez, D. W. Nebert, J. P. Hardwick, and C. B. Kasper, J. Biol. Chem. 260:7435-7441), was isolated from a rat liver cDNA expression library by use of a polyclonal anti-P450PCN1 antibody. This P-450 cDNA contains 2,014 base pairs and yields an open reading frame of a protein consisting of 504 amino acids (Mr = 57,760). P450PCN2 cDNA and protein shared 90% nucleotide and 89% amino acid similarity with P450PCN1 cDNA and protein, respectively. The 5' untranslated, coding, and 3' untranslated regions between the two cDNAs share 94, 93, and 79% similarities, respectively. Nucleotide differences in the coding regions, however, are not evenly distributed. Complete homology exists between the two mRNAs for 425 nucleotides (positions 346 through 771). Other regions of 93 nucleotides containing only one difference and 147 nucleotides containing two differences exist toward the 3' end of the coding regions. These data suggest the possibility that a gene conversion event(s) have occurred subsequent to duplication of the ancestral P450PCN gene. Oligonucleotide probes unique for P450PCN1 and P450PCN2 cDNAs were used to examine the levels of their respective mRNAs in noninduced and PCN-induced liver cells and in male and female rats of various ages. P450PCN1 mRNA was not detectable in either male or female rats at any ages. In contrast, P450PCN2 mRNA was present at a low level in newborn rats and became elevated in both males and females at 1 week of age. Levels of p450PCN2 mRNA continued to increase in males until 12 weeks, whereas the mRNA in females reached peak levels at 2 weeks of age but declined continuously at the onset of puberty (between 4 and 12 weeks). These levels of P45PCN2 mRNA closely parallel the increases in testosterone 6 beta-hydroxylase activity and P450PCN2 protein level, as analyzed by Western blots. P450PCN1 mRNA was induced by PCN, dexamethasone, and phenobarbital in both male and female rats. P450PCN2 mRNA was not significantly induced by PCN or dexamethasone but was readily induced by phenobarbital. Testosterone 6 beta-hydroxylase activity was also induced severalfold by PCN, dexamethasone, and phenobarbital. These data demonstrate that P450PCN1 and P450PCN2 genes are differentially regulated during development and after administration of inducing compounds and furthermore suggest that both enzymes possess testosterone 6 beta-hydroxylase activity.

Abstract
In this study we have characterized, in brain, the expression of a plasma membrane proteolipid protein (PM-PLP) complex that can form cation-selective channels in lipid bilayers. We isolated PLP fractions from synaptic plasma membrane and glial microsomes and found a high degree of similarity in both size and amino acid composition to the complex we had previously isolated from kidney. Antibodies specific to the kidney PM-PLP were prepared, and, on the basis of immunoblot and immunoprecipitation studies, the PM-PLP complex isolated from neural membranes was shown to be immunologically related to the kidney PM-PLP. These proteolipid proteins exhibited a molecular weight of approximately 14K and contained a high percentage of hydrophobic amino acids with an apparent absence of cysteine. The biogenesis of PM-PLP in brain was studied by in vitro translation of free and bound polysomes and total RNA in a rabbit reticulocyte lysate followed by immunoprecipitation of the translation products. From these studies it is concluded that the PM-PLP complex is synthesized on the rough endoplasmic reticulum. On the basis of the identical electrophoretic mobility of material isolated from plasma membranes and material immunoprecipitated after translation of bound polysomes and isolated RNA, it appears that the PM-PLP does not undergo detectable posttranslational processing between its site of synthesis and its incorporation into the plasma membrane.

Abstract
The biosynthesis of human tumor necrosis factor (hTNF) was studied. The amino-terminal extension of the hTNF precursor (26 kDa polypeptide) was not cleaved off in a cell-free system supplemented with dog pancreas microsomes. Correct maturation of pre-hTNF was nevertheless not restricted to the macrophage system: in the medium of a TNF-producing, transformed CHO cell line, a (weak) approximately 20 kDa, an approximately 18.5 kDa (doublet) and a 17 kDa TNF polypeptide, the latter corresponding to mature hTNF, were revealed by specific immunoprecipitation. Similar results were obtained with Xenopus laevis oocytes, injected with hTNF mRNA, except that the 20 kDa band was lacking. The results are discussed in relation to the secretion mechanism of hTNF.

Abstract
The steps involved in the initial assembly of apolipoproteins and lipids into supramolecular arrays (nascent lipoprotein particles) are largely unknown. Examination of the proteolytic processing and compartmentalization of the primary translation products of apolipoprotein mRNAs represents one approach to deciphering the molecular details of lipoprotein assembly. The structures of the primary translation products of seven mammalian apolipoprotein mRNAs has been determined in the past several years. The organization of apolipoprotein signal peptides is typical of eukaryotic prepeptides, although an unusual degree of sequence conservation is present among the signal segments of apo AI, AIV, and E. For those apolipoprotein sequences studied in detail, SRP-dependent cotranslational translocation and proteolytic processing appears to be highly efficient and results in sequestration of the processed protein within the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). However the mechanism by which these lipid-binding proteins avoid arrest during their translocation through the lipid bilayer of the ER membrane remains obscure. The two principal human HDL apolipoproteins undergo novel extracellular post-translational proteolytic processing, which results in removal of nonhomologous propeptides. The proteases responsible for proapo AI and AII processing appear to be different. The processing of these proapolipoproteins provides a potential series of steps for regulating the ordered assembly of HDL constituents.

Abstract
This review concentrates mainly on the translocation of proteins across the endoplasmic reticulum membrane and cytoplasmic membrane in bacteria. It will start with a short historical review and will pinpoint the crucial questions in the field. Special emphasis will be given to the present knowledge on the molecular details of the first steps, i.e., on the function of the signal recognition particle and its receptor. The knowledge on the signal peptidase and the ribosome receptor(s) will also be summarized. The various models for the translocation of proteins across and the integration of proteins into membranes will be critically discussed. In particular, the function of signal, stop-transfer, and insertion sequences will be dealt with and molecular differences discussed. The cotranslational mode of membrane transfer will be compared with the post-translational transport found for mitochondria and chloroplasts. This review will conclude with open questions and an outlook.

Abstract
Ribophorins are two transmembrane glycoproteins characteristic of the rough endoplasmic reticulum, which are thought to be involved in the binding of ribosomes. Their biosynthesis was studied in vivo using lines of cultured rat hepatocytes (clone 9) and pituitary cells (GH 3.1) and in cell-free synthesis experiments. In vitro translation of mRNA extracted from free and bound polysomes of clone 9 cells demonstrated that ribophorins are made exclusively on bound polysomes. The primary translation products of ribophorin messengers obtained from cultured hepatocytes or from regenerating livers co-migrated with the respective mature proteins, but had slightly higher apparent molecular weights (2,000) than the unglycosylated forms immunoprecipitated from cells treated with tunicamycin. This indicates that ribophorins, in contrast to all other endoplasmic reticulum membrane proteins previously studied, contain transient amino-terminal insertion signals which are removed co-translationally. Kinetic and pulse-chase experiments with [35S]methionine and [3H]mannose demonstrated that ribophorins are not subjected to electrophoretically detectable posttranslational modifications, such as proteolytic cleavage or trimming and terminal glycosylation of oligosaccharide side chain(s). Direct analysis of the oligosaccharides of ribophorin l showed that they do not contain the terminal sugars characteristic of complex oligosaccharides and that they range in composition from Man8GlcNAc to Man5GlcNAc. These findings, as well as the observation that the mature proteins are sensitive to endoglycosidase H and insensitive to endoglycosidase D, are consistent with the notion that the biosynthetic pathway of the ribophorins does not require a stage of passage through the Golgi apparatus.

Abstract
We have investigated the responsiveness of established rat hepatocyte cell cultures to inducers of cytochrome P-450. One Reuber hepatoma-derived line (Fu5-C8), which under normal culture conditions produces no detectable cytochrome P-450(MC) or cytochrome P-450(PB)--the major cytochrome P-450 isozymes induced by 3-methylcholanthrene and phenobarbital, respectively--was tested for the ability to accumulate either cytochrome P-450 isozyme in response to treatment with various xenobiotics. By immune-precipitation from [35S]-methionine-labeled cell extracts, using monospecific anticytochrome P-450(MC) antibody or monoclonal anticytochrome P-450(PB) antibody, it was demonstrated that these cells possess the capability to synthesize cytochrome P-450(MC) in response to 3-methylcholanthrene treatment, while none of the drug treatments caused the synthesis of detectable quantities of cytochrome P-450(PB). RNA extracted from Fu5-C8 cells directed the in vitro synthesis of immune-precipitable cytochrome P-450(MC) only after treatment of the cells with 3-methylcholanthrene. Kinetic analysis of the response of these cells to 3-methylcholanthrene induction revealed detectable levels of immune-precipitable cytochrome P-450(MC) 2 h after drug treatment with maximal induction occurring between 12 and 16 h of exposure. Another cell line (HF 1.5), obtained originally by hybridization of Fao X H5 variants of a Reuber H35 hepatoma, produces cytochrome P-450(MC) and also cytochrome P-450(PB) constitutively, as determined by specific immune-precipitation from labeled cell extracts. Exposure of confluent monolayers to either phenobarbital or 3-methylcholanthrene resulted in an induction of cytochrome P-450(PB) or cytochrome P-450(MC), respectively. Double-labeling immunofluorescence studies indicate that all cells in the culture produce albumin and most of the cells produce cytochrome P-450(MC), but only a subset of cells synthesize cytochrome P-450(PB). Our results demonstrate that some continuously dividing hepatocyte cell cultures retain the capacity to respond to xenobiotics, including phenobarbital, a response which is typically exhibited by fully differentiated liver cells. Such established hepatocyte cell cultures should prove useful for investigating the mechanism of induction of cytochrome P-450(PB).

Abstract
Insertion of newly synthesized P-450(1), the major phenobarbital-inducible form of rabbit liver microsomal cytochrome P-450, into microsomal membranes was studied in a wheat germ cell-free translation system programed with total RNA from the liver of a phenobarbital-treated rabbit. P-450(1) synthesized in vitro had the same molecular weight as the mature molecule and was co-translationally inserted into dog pancreas rough microsomal membranes. In the presence of salt-washed microsomes, instead of unwashed ones, the insertion was greatly diminished. It could, however, be restored by supplementation of the system with purified signal recognition particle (SRP), a known component of the membrane translocation machinery for secretory proteins. In the absence of microsomes, SRP inhibited the translation of mRNA encoding P-450(1) and this translation arrest was released by the addition of salt-washed microsomes. On the other hand, SRP did not affect the translation of mRNAs encoding yeast porin and reticulocyte globin, which are mitochondrial and cytosolic proteins, respectively. We conclude that co-translational insertion of P-450(1) into microsomal membranes requires SRP and postulate that P-450(1) possesses an uncleavable signal sequence that can be recognized by SRP.

Abstract
The nucleotide sequence of a 4.8-kilobase mRNA for hamster 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase, the endoplasmic reticulum enzyme that controls cholesterol biosynthesis, shows that it is a protein of 887 amino acids (molecular weight 97,092) which contains three potential sites for asparagine-linked glycosylation. The reductase is a transmembrane glycoprotein, but in contrast to many other transmembrane glycoproteins, it lacks a cleavable or hydrophobic NH2-terminal signal sequence.

Abstract
Poly(A)+ RNA (polyadenylated RNA) isolated from membrane-bound and free polyribosomes was translated in reticulocyte lysates, and the products were analysed by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Several translation products were specific to membrane-bound polyribosomal mRNA, including polypeptides of 47kDa, 35kDa and 21 kDa, whereas others (e.g. of 37 kDa, 17 kDa and 14 kDa) were specific to free polyribosomal mRNA. Although many products were common to both mRNA species, cross-contamination could be ruled out on the basis of the presence of these and other specific products. The common products included a 68 kDa microtubule-associated protein, tubulin, actin, the brain form of creatine kinase, neuron-specific enolase and protein 14-3-3 and calmodulin, all of which were identified on the basis of two-dimensional gel and peptide analyses. The 35 kDa protein product of membrane-specific mRNA was co-translationally processed in vitro by microsomal membranes, resulting in its cleavage to 33 kDa (and partial glycosylation). The 33 kDa processed protein (but not the 35 kDa precursor) was integrated into both dog pancreas and rat brain microsomal membranes. The occurrence of the enzymes and calmodulin as products of membrane-bound polyribosomal mRNA is discussed in the light of their presence on rat brain synaptic plasma membranes [Lim, Hall, Leung, Mahadevan & Whatley (1983) J. Neurochem. 41, 1177-1182] and their existence in a specific component of axonal flow. It is suggested that some of these translation products of the rough endoplasmic reticulum may represent proteins destined for the plasma membrane. However, the identity and location of the 35 kDa membrane-specific product (or its processed form) still remain unestablished.

Abstract
Using a cell line, C100, that overproduces 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase (HMG-CoA reductase; EC 1.1.1.34) 100-fold, we have studied the synthesis and insertion of this protein into the endoplasmic reticulum. The enzyme is synthesized on membrane-bound polysomes. It is cotranslationally but not post-translationally inserted into dog pancreatic microsomes. This cotranslational insertion is dependent upon signal recognition particle. HMG-CoA reductase is glycosylated with an oligosaccharide(s) of the "high-mannose" type sensitive to endo-beta-D-N-acetylglucosaminidase H. Partial determination of the NH2-terminal amino acid sequence of the in vitro translation product and the mature polypeptide indicate they are the same and demonstrate there is no cleavage of an NH2-terminal signal sequence.

Abstract
The E1 glycoprotein of coronavirus mouse hepatitis virus A59 was synthesized in vitro by translation of viral mRNA in the presence of dog pancreatic microsomes. Its disposition in the membrane was investigated by digestion with proteases and by selective NH2-terminal labeling. The protein spans the membrane, but only small portions from the NH2 and COOH terminus are exposed respectively in the lumenal and cytoplasmic domains; the bulk of the molecule is apparently buried in the membrane. The protein lacks a cleavable leader sequence and does not acquire its characteristic O-linked oligosaccharides in rough microsomes. It may enter the membrane at any stage during synthesis of the first 150 amino acid residues. These unusual features of the protein might help to explain why it is not transported to the cell surface in vivo but remains in intracellular membranes, causing the virus to bud there.

Abstract
In the present studies, a novel form of highly purified cytochrome P-450 (cytochrome P-452) isolated from the hepatic microsomes of clofibrate-pretreated rats has been compared to the major isozymes isolated from the hepatic microsomes of rats pretreated with phenobarbital (cytochrome P-450) and 2-naphthoflavone (cytochrome P-447) using a number of biochemical criteria. The results show that these three isozymes exhibit marked structural differences from each other as judged by a complete lack of immunochemical cross-reactivity between the isozymes and the heterologous rabbit serum antibodies using Ouchterlony double diffusion, and non-identity between the limited proteolytic digestion maps of the three isozymes obtained in the presence of chymotrypsin, papain and Staphylococcus aureus V8 proteases. Furthermore, the three isozymes exhibited clear differences in their monomeric molecular weights determined on calibrated sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in gels of varying acrylamide concentration. Substantial differences were also observed in the substrate specificities of the isozymes, which were reflected in differences in the turnover rates and positional selectivities of the hemoproteins for some model substrates. In addition, the isozymes differed in their substrate binding affinities and their ability to interact with purified hepatic microsomal cytochrome b5, as judged using difference spectrophotometry. Finally, subtle differences were detected in the ultraviolet visible absorbance spectra of the hemoproteins in the ferric, ferrous, and carbonmonoxyferrous states. Taken collectively, the above data provides compelling evidence that fundamental differences exist between these cytochrome P-450 isozymes, further establishing the uniqueness of the major form of cytochrome P-450 induced by clofibrate pretreatment.

Abstract
Three forms of cytochrome P-450 were purified to homogeneity from liver microsomes of Wistar-strain rats treated with phenobarbital. They had minimum mol.wts. of 52 000, 53 000 and 54 000 as determined by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis and are designated as P-450(L), P-450(M) and P-450(H) respectively. They were shown to be immunoidentical by Ouchterlony double-diffusion analysis. Several criteria, such as isoelectric points, substrate specificities and sensitivities to tryptic digestion, however, indicated that these cytochromes are distinct isoenzymes of cytochrome P-450. Whereas P-450(L) was highly active on various substrates, P-450(H) had generally low catalytic activities, except on aminopyrine. The cytochromes purified by immunoaffinity chromatography using anti-P-450(L) showed a marked variation in their distribution depending on the strain and colony of rat. Limited tryptic digestion of P-450(H) gave one tryptic peptide showing the same mobility as P-450(L) by sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis and their primary structures were very similar. The result suggests a possibility that such limited proteolysis is involved in the post-translational modification of the cytochrome or its destruction.

Abstract
The biosynthesis of small-intestinal aminopeptidase N (EC 3.4.11.2) was studied in a cell-free translation system derived from rabbit reticulocytes. When dog pancreatic microsomal fractions were present during translation, most of the aminopeptidase N synthesized was found in a membrane-bound rather than a soluble form, indicating that synthesis of the enzyme takes place on ribosomes attached to the rough endoplasmic reticulum. The microsomal fractions process the Mr-115 000 polypeptide, which is the primary translation product of aminopeptidase N, to a polypeptide of Mr 140 000. This was found to be sensitive to the action of endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H (EC 3.2.1.96), showing that aminopeptidase N undergoes transmembrane glycosylation during synthesis. The position of the signal sequence in aminopeptidase N was determined by a synchronized translation experiment. It was found that microsomal fractions should be added before about 25% of the polypeptide was synthesized to ensure processing to the high-mannose glycosylated form. This suggests that the signal sequence is situated in the N-terminal part of the aminopeptidase N. The size of the cell-free translation product in the absence of microsomal fractions was found to be similar to that on one of the forms of the enzyme obtained from tunicamycin-treated organ-cultured intestinal explants.

Abstract
Two isozymes of rat liver microsomal cytochrome P-450--P-450b and P-450e--were compared by micro sequence analyses of their NH2 termini and tryptic fragments. These two phenobarbital-inducible hemoproteins, which are immunochemically indistinguishable with antibody against cytochrome P-450b, have extensive sequence homology. Automated Edman degradation of the native proteins revealed identical amino acids for the first 35 residues. Sequence determinations of the tryptic peptides, which constitute approximately 75% of each protein molecule, have thus far shown 10 amino acid differences between the two isozymes. Results of our amino acid sequence analyses established that two of the cDNAs, pcP-450pb1 and pcP-450pb4, reported by Fujii-Kuriyama et al. [Fujii-Kuriyama, Y., Mizukami, Y., Kamajiri, K., Sogawa, K. & Muramatsu, M. (1982) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 79, 2793-2797] encode cytochrome P-450b whereas pcP-450pb2, a third cDNA whose nucleotide sequence differed slightly from that of the other two (six amino acid substitutions), encodes cytochrome P-450e. In addition to establishing the identity of these cloned cDNAs we provide direct evidence for seven additional amino acid differences between cytochromes P-450b and P-450e that occur beyond the region (Arg358) encoded by the cloned cDNA for cytochrome P-450e. Together, the amino acid sequences determined by micro sequence analysis and recombinant DNA techniques reveal 13 amino acid differences between these two isozymes. This report highlights the complementary nature of two different molecular approaches to elucidation of the amino acid sequences of isozymes with extensive structural homology.

Abstract
The steroid 21-hydroxylase cytochrome P-450 from porcine adrenocortical microsomes was purified to homogeneity. The protein exhibited two NH2-terminal sequences, one of which was identical with the first but lacking the NH2-terminal methionine. The sequence was extremely hydrophobic but had little homology to the 17 alpha-hydroxylase/C17,20-lyase isolated from neonatal porcine testes or to rat or rabbit liver microsomal cytochromes P-450. The cysteine-containing fragments of the S-carboxymethylated protein were purified by high-performance liquid chromatography and sequenced. Three of the cysteine-containing peptides exhibited significant sequence homology with peptides from the major phenobarbital-induced rat liver cytochrome P-450 (P-450b) and two with peptides from cytochrome P-450cam (camphor methylene hydroxylase from Pseudomonas putida). The presence of conserved regions in the primary sequences of these proteins appears likely to provide clues to the nature of their heme-binding domains.

Abstract
Liver endoplasmic reticulum contains as NADPH-dependent electron transport complex where the family of hemeproteins, termed cytochrome P-450, serve as catalysts for the oxidation of a variety of different organic chemicals. The content and inventory of the types of cytochrome P-450 is readily modified following in vivo treatment of animals with 'inducing agents' such as barbiturates, steroids and polycyclic hydrocarbons. Recent studies have applied the methods of molecular biology to evaluate changes in the transcription and translation of genomic information occurring concomitant with the initiation of synthesis of various types of cytochrome P-450. The ability to isolate unique cytochrome P-450 proteins and to prepare specific antibodies now permits the study of in vitro translation of mRNA and the preparation of specific cDNAs. The present review summarizes the historic background leading to current concepts of cytochrome P-450 induction and describes recent advances in our knowledge of the regulation of cytochrome P-450 synthesis in the liver.

Abstract
Hepatic microsomal cytochrome P-450 was elevated in 17-day chick embryos by combined administration of the porphyrinogenic drugs 2-allyl-2-isopropylacetamide and 3,5-diethoxycarbonyl-1,4-dihydrocollidine. Increased apoprotein levels were the result of de novo protein synthesis; in vitro obtained translation data suggested that cytochrome P-450 mRNA levels were elevated. A 1000-base cDNA sequence for the drug-induced cytochrome P-450 mRNA was isolated from a chick embryo cDNA 'library' and this was used as a specific probe to investigate drug-mediated induction of cytochrome P-450 mRNA. RNA-DNA 'dot' hybridisation studies demonstrated that drug treatment led to a 3-5-fold increase in the level of this mRNA and that the mRNA was predominantly associated with membrane-bound polyribosomes. Treatment of embryos with the drugs individually demonstrated that both of them induced synthesis of the same mRNA. These studies show directly that treatment of chick embryos with 2-allyl-2-isopropylacetamide or 3,5-diethoxycarbonyl-1,4-dihydrocollidine caused increased levels of cytochrome P-450 mRNA and suggest that this involved increased transcription of the gene.

Abstract
1. Eight different forms of cytochrome P-450 have been purified to electrophoretic homogeneity. Electrophoretic, spectral and catalytic properties of these cytochrome P-450s are presented and comparison is made with preparations presented elsewhere in the literature. 2. The levels of these forms of cytochrome P-450 present in liver microsomes of rats treated with various compounds have now been quantified. Several forms of cytochrome P-450 are induced, in a more or less coordinate manner, while levels of other cytochrome P-450s are lowered, during administration of commonly used inducing agents. 3. The role of cytochrome P-450 purification and characterization studies in the understanding of the total field is discussed, along with directions in which future research is needed.

Abstract
1. Cytochromes P-450sec and P-450(11) beta, adrenodoxin and adrenodoxin reductase, mitochondrial components of the adrenocortical steroid hydroxylase pathway, are synthesized as higher molecular weight precursors; cytochrome P-450C-21, a microsomal component of this pathway, is synthesized as the mature form. 2. Synthesis of the above mitochondrial components is induced by ACTH in a co-ordinated fashion. Synthesis of cytochrome P-450C-21 and NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase is also induced by ACTH, however, the induction of these microsomal components is not co-ordinated with that of the mitochondrial components. 3. Following treatment of cultured cells with ACTH, the pattern of glucocorticoid output changes from approximately equal amounts of cortisol and corticosterone to predominately cortisol within 24 h. This change results from a large induction of cytochrome P-450(17) alpha activity in response to ACTH. 4. Bovine adrenocortical cells in culture become refractory to continued treatment with ACTH. This refractoriness is manifested in terms of steroid output; synthesis of cytochromes P-450scc, P-450(11) beta and P-450C-21, adrenodoxin and adrenodoxin reductase; and activities of cholesterol side-chain cleavage, 11 beta-hydroxylase and 17 alpha-hydroxylase.

Abstract
The distribution of newly synthesized proteolipid protein (PLP, 23 kdaltons) and myelin basic proteins (MBPs, 14-21.5 kdaltons) was determined in microsomal and myelin fractions prepared from the brainstems o1 10-30 d-old rats sacrificed at different times after an intracranial injection of 35S-methionine. Labeled MBPs were found in the myelin fraction 2 min after the injection, whereas PLP appeared first in the rough microsomal fraction and only after a lag of 30 min in the myelin fraction. Cell-free translation experiments using purified mRNAs demonstrated that PLP and MBPs are synthesized in bound and free polysomes, respectively. A mechanism involving the cotranslational insertion into the ER membrane and subsequent passage of the polypeptides through the Golgi apparatus is consistent with the lag observed in the appearance of the in vivo-labeled PLP in the myelin membrane. Newly synthesized PLP and MBPs are not proteolytically processed, because the primary translation products synthesized in vitro had the same electrophoretic mobility and N-terminal amino acid sequence as the mature PLP and MBP polypeptides. It was found that crude myelin fractions are highly enriched in mRNAs coding for the MBPs but not in mRNA coding for PLP. This suggests that whereas the bound polysomes synthesizing PLP are largely confined to the cell body, free polysomes synthesizing MBPs are concentrated in oligodendrocyte processes involved in myelination, which explains the immediate incorporation of MBPs into the developing myelin sheath.

Abstract
1. Five hepatic microsomal cytochrome P-450 isozymes (cytochromes P-450a, P-450b, P-450c, P-450d, P-450e) have been purified to apparent homogeneity from immature male rats treated with various xenobiotics. 2. The unique electrophoretic properties, substrate specificities and spectral characteristics of these haemoproteins have been compared and contrasted. 3. Structural studies of these cytochrome P-450 isozymes have included NH2-terminal amino acid sequence analyses, as well as electrophoretic profiles of limited proteolytic digests and cyanogen bromide fragments of the haemoproteins. 4. Specific antibodies have been prepared against four of the isozymes and used to evaluate immunochemical relationships among these cytochrome P-450s by Ouchterlony double-diffusion analyses. 5. The levels of some of these cytochrome P-450 isozymes have been quantified immunologically in hepatic microsomal preparations from untreated rats and following induction by phenobarbital, 3-methylcholanthrene or Aroclor 1254. 6. Antibodies directed against cytochromes P-450a and P-450b have been used to establish the presence of more than one 7 alpha- and 16 alpha-testosterone hydroxylase in rat hepatic microsomes. The relative contributions of cytochromes P-450c and P-450d to the overall microsomal metabolism of benzo[a]pyrene have been evaluated using antibodies to these haemoproteins.
