Abstract
In this paper, the structure and function of a new tetrameric carbonyl reductase (TCR) is reviewed. TCRs were purified from rabbit and pig heart, using 4-benzoylpyridine as a substrate. Partial peptide sequencing and cDNA cloning of rabbit and pig TCRs revealed that both enzymes belonged to the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase family and that their subunits consisted of 260 amino acid residues. Rabbit and pig TCRs catalyzed the reduction of alkyl phenyl ketones, alpha-dicarbonyl compounds, quinones and retinals. Both enzymes were potently inhibited by flavonoids and fatty acids. 9,10-Phenanthrenequinone, which is efficiently reduced by rabbit and pig TCRs, mediated the formation of superoxide radical through its redox cycling in pig heart. The C-terminal sequences of rabbit and pig TCRs comprised a type 1 peroxisomal targeting signal (PTS1) Ser-Arg-Leu, suggesting that the enzymes are localized in the peroxisome. In fact, pig TCR was targeted into the peroxisomal matrix, in the case of transfection of HeLa cells with vectors expressing the enzyme. However, when the recombinant pig TCR was directly introduced into HeLa cells, the enzyme was not targeted into the peroxisomal matrix. The crystal structure of recombinant pig TCR demonstrated that the C-terminal PTS1 of each subunit of the enzyme was buried in the interior of the tetrameric molecule. These findings indicate that pig TCR is imported into the peroxisome as a monomer and then forms an active tetramer within this organelle.

Abstract
Carbonyl reduction of aldehydes, ketones, and quinones to their corresponding hydroxy derivatives plays an important role in the phase I metabolism of many endogenous (biogenic aldehydes, steroids, prostaglandins, reactive lipid peroxidation products) and xenobiotic (pharmacologic drugs, carcinogens, toxicants) compounds. Carbonyl-reducing enzymes are grouped into two large protein superfamilies: the aldo-keto reductases (AKR) and the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR). Whereas aldehyde reductase and aldose reductase are AKRs, several forms of carbonyl reductase belong to the SDRs. In addition, there exist a variety of pluripotent hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases (HSDs) of both superfamilies that specifically catalyze the oxidoreduction at different positions of the steroid nucleus and also catalyze, rather nonspecifically, the reductive metabolism of a great number of nonsteroidal carbonyl compounds. The present review summarizes recent findings on carbonyl reductases and pluripotent HSDs of the SDR protein superfamily.

Abstract
Pig heart peroxisomal carbonyl reductase (PerCR) belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase family, and its sequence comprises a C-terminal SRL tripeptide, which is a variant of the type 1 peroxisomal targeting signal (PTS1) Ser-Lys-Leu. PerCR is imported into peroxisomes of HeLa cells when the cells are transfected with vectors expressing the enzyme. However, PerCR does not show specific targeting when introduced into the cells with a protein transfection reagent. To understand the structural basis for peroxisomal localization of PerCR, we determined the crystal structure of PerCR. Our data revealed that the C-terminal PTS1 of each subunit of PerCR was involved in intersubunit interactions and was buried in the interior of the tetrameric molecule. These findings indicate that the PTS1 receptor Pex5p in the cytosol recognizes the monomeric form of PerCR whose C-terminal PTS1 is exposed, and that this PerCR is targeted into the peroxisome, thereby forming a tetramer.

Abstract
Dog liver contains an oligomeric NADPH-dependent carbonyl reductase (CR) with substrate specificity for alkyl phenyl ketones, but its endogenous substrate and primary structure remain unknown. In this study, we examined the molecular weight and substrate specificity of the enzyme purified from dog liver. The enzyme is a ca. 100-kDa tetramer composing of 27-kDa subunit, and reduces all-trans-retinal and alpha-dicarbonyl compounds including isatin, which are substrates for pig peroxisomal tetrameric carbonyl reductase (PTCR). In addition, the dog enzyme resembles pig PTCR in inhibitor sensitivity to flavonoids, myristic acid, lithocholic acid, bromosulfophthalein and flufenamic acid. Furthermore, the amino acid sequence of dog CR determined by protein sequencing and cDNA cloning was 84% identical to that of pig PTCR and had a C-terminal peroxisomal targeting signal type 1, Ser-His-Leu. The immunoprecipitation using the anti-pig PTCR antibody shows that the dog enzyme is a major form of soluble NADPH-dependent all-trans-retinal reductase in dog liver. Thus, dog oligomeric CR is PTCR, and may play a role in retinoid metabolism as a retinal reductase.

Abstract
A member of the aldo-keto reductase superfamily, AKR1C15, was isolated via cDNA cloning, but its physiological function remains unknown. Here, we show that recombinant AKR1C15 is an NADPH-dependent reductase with broad substrate specificity for aromatic, alicyclic and aliphatic carbonyl compounds, including acetoin, 2,5-hexanedione, methylglyoxal, farnesal, retinals, 17-ketosteroids and monosaccharides. Especially, all-trans-retinal, alpha-diketones and lipid-derived aldehydes including 4-hydroxynonenal were excellent substrates showing low K(m) values (0.3-5.5 microM). Immunohistochemical and reverse transcription-PCR analyses revealed that AKR1C15 is highly expressed in rat bronchiolar Clara cells, type II alveolar cells, gastric parietal cells, the epithelial cells of the stomach and colon, and the brown adipocytes. The enzyme was not detected in cells of other rat tissues, but is consistently expressed in the vascular endothelial cells. These results suggest that AKR1C15 plays a role in retinoid, steroid, isoprenoid and carbohydrate metabolism, as well as a defense system, protecting against reactive carbonyl compounds.

Abstract
We report mapping of proteins of adenocarcinomas of the lung as a result of overexpression of the oncogenically activated N-terminal deletion mutant c-raf-1 BxB through usage of the human SP-C promotor. Proteins from non-transgenic controls and tumors were extracted with a lysis buffer containing 5 mol/L urea, 2 mol/L thiourea, 40 mmol/L Tris, 4% CHAPS, 100 mmol/L DTT, 0.5% BioLyte 3-10, separated by 2-DE and studied by image analysis. On average, 300-600 protein spots per gel were excised and analyzed by MALDI-TOF and -TOF/TOF MS. More than 1000 of the CBB-stained proteins were identified and traced back to 100 different gene products, including many of their isoforms. We observed significant changes in the expression of proteins involved in cellular defense or glycolysis, and this included glutathione S-transferase, peroxiredoxin 6, and alpha-enolase, among others. Proteins associated with lung tumor growth and/or metastasis, i.e., lung carbonyl reductase, differed in expression, as did tumor-associated expression of cell adhesion and membrane-bound proteins such as vinculin. This map provides valuable insight into expression of pulmonary proteins associated with lung adenocarcinomas, some of which may be of utility as diagnostic markers in clinical trials.

Abstract
A variety of carbonyl compounds are present in foods, environmental pollutants, and drugs. These xenobiotic carbonyl compounds are metabolized into the corresponding alcohols by many mammalian NAD(P)H-dependent reductases, which belong to the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase (SDR) and aldo-keto reductase superfamilies. Recent genomic analysis, cDNA isolation and characterization of the recombinant enzymes suggested that, in humans, the six members of each of the two superfamilies, i.e., total of 12 enzymes, are involved in the reductive metabolism of xenobiotic carbonyl compounds. They comprise three types of carbonyl reductase, dehydrogenase/reductase (SDR family) member 4, 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1, L-xylulose reductase, two types of aflatoxin B1 aldehyde reductase, 20alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, and three types of 3alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase. Accumulating data on the human enzymes provide new insights into their roles in cellular and molecular reactions including xenobiotic metabolism. On the other hand, mice and rats lack the gene for a protein corresponding to human 3alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 3, but instead possess additional five or six genes encoding proteins that are structurally related to human hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases. Characterization of the additional enzymes suggested their involvement in species-specific biological events and species differences in the metabolism of xenobiotic carbonyl compounds.

Abstract
In this study, we isolated a cDNA for tetrameric carbonyl reductase (CR) from pig heart. The pig CR showed high amino acid sequence identity (81%) with rabbit NADP(+)-dependent retinol dehydrogenase (NDRD). The purified recombinant pig CR and NDRD were about 100-kDa homotetramers and exhibited high reductase activity towards alkyl phenyl ketones, alpha-dicarbonyl compounds and all-trans-retinal. The identity of NDRD with the tetrameric CR was verified by protein sequencing of CR purified from rabbit heart. Both tetrameric CR and its mRNA were ubiquitously expressed in pig and rabbit tissues. The pig and rabbit enzymes belonged to the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase family, and their sequences comprise a C-terminal SRL tripeptide, which is a variant of the type 1 peroxisomal targeting signal, SKL. Transfection of HeLa cells with vectors expressing pig CR demonstrated that the enzyme is localized in the peroxisomes. Thus, the tetrameric form of CR represents the first mammalian peroxisomal enzyme that reduces all-trans-retinal as the endogenous substrate.

Abstract
Sequence analysis of a cDNA for D-erythrulose reductase from chicken liver showed that the deduced open reading frame encodes the protein with a molecular mass of 26 kDa consisting of 246 amino acids. Although the reductase shares more than 60% identity in the amino acid sequence with the mouse tetrameric carbonyl reductase, these two enzymes have many biochemical differences; their substrate specificity, subcellular localization, organ distribution, etc. A three-dimensional structure of D-erythrulose reductase was predicted by comparative modeling based on the structure of the tetrameric carbonyl reductase (PDB entry = 1CYD). Most of the residues at the active site (within 4 A from the ligand) of the carbonyl reductase were also conserved in the D-erythrulose reductase. Nevertheless, Val190 and Leu146 in the active site of the tetrameric carbonyl reductase were substituted in the D-erythrulose reductase by Asn192 and His148, respectively. The substitutions in the active sites may be related to the difference in substrate specificity of the two enzymes. The phylogenic analysis of D-erythrulose reductase and the other related proteins suggests that the protein described as a carbonyl reductase D-erythrulose reductase.

Abstract
Carbonyl reductase (secondary-alcohol:NADP(+) oxidoreductase, EC 1.1. 1.184) belongs to the family of short chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR). Carbonyl reductases (CBRs) are NADPH-dependent, mostly monomeric, cytosolic enzymes with broad substrate specificity for many endogenous and xenobiotic carbonyl compounds. They catalyze the reduction of endogenous prostaglandins, steroids, and other aliphatic aldehydes and ketones. They also reduce a wide variety of xenobiotic quinones derived from polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. CBR reduces the anthracycline anticancer drugs, daunorubicin(dn) and doxorubicin (dox) to their C-13 hydroxy metabolites, changing the pharmacological properties of these drugs. Emerging data on CBRs over the last several years is generating new insights on the potential involvement of CBRs in a variety of cellular and molecular reactions associated with drug metabolism, detoxication, drug resistance, mutagenesis, and carcinogenesis.

Abstract
Carbonyl reductase-like 20β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (CR/20β-HSD) is an enzyme that converts 17α-hydroxyprogesterone to 17α,20β-dihydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one (the maturation-inducing hormone of salmonid fish). We have previously isolated two types of CR/20β-HSD cDNAs from ovarian follicle of rainbow trout (
Oncorhynchus mykiss
). Recombinant proteins produced by expression in
Escherichia coli
in vitro
showed that one (type A) had CR and 20β-HSD activity but that the other (type B) did not. Among the three distinct residues between the protein products encoded by the two cDNAs, two residues (positions 15 and 27) are located in the N-terminal Rossmann fold, the coenzyme binding site. To investigate the structure/function relationships of CR/20β-HSDs, we generated mutants by site-directed mutagenesis at the following positions: MutA/I15T, MutB/T15I, and MutB/Q27K. Enzyme activity of wild-type A was abolished by substitution of Ile-15 by Thr (MutA/I15T). Conversely, enzyme activity was acquired by the replacement of Thr-15 with Ile in type B (MutB/T15I). MutB/T15I mutant showed properties similar to the wild-type A in every aspect tested. Mutation MutB/Q27K had only partial enzyme activity, indicating that Ile-15 plays an important role in enzyme binding of cofactor NADPH.

Abstract
6-tert-Butyl-2,3-epoxy-5-cyclohexene-1,4-dione (TBE), a metabolite of 3-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyanisole, was converted to 6-tert-butyl-2, 3-epoxy-4(R)-hydroxy-5-cyclohexen-1-one ((4R)-TBEH) and 6-tert-butyl-2,3-epoxy-4(S)-hydroxy-5-cyclohexen-1-one ((4S)-TBEH) by TBE-reducing enzymes in rat liver cytosol. Two TBE-reducing enzymes (TBE-R1 and TBE-R2) were purified 18- and 117-fold, respectively, to apparent homogeneity from rat liver cytosol using DEAE-Sephacel, Blue Sepharose CL-6B, hydroxylapatite, and Sephadex G-100 column chromatography. Gel filtration and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis indicated that both enzymes were monomeric. The purified TBE-R1 and TBE-R2 had molecular weights of 37 and 35 kDa and isoelectric points of 6.5 and 5.8, respectively. Both enzymes had an optimum pH of about 5.5 with TBE as substrate. TBE-R1 utilized NADH or NADPH equally as cofactor, and the Km values of NADH and NADPH for TBE with TBE-R1 were estimated to be 15 and 29 microM, respectively. On the other hand, TBE-R2 specifically utilized NADPH and the Km value for TBE was estimated to be 92 microM in the presence of NADPH. Both enzymes reduced aromatic aldehydes, ketones, and quinones at higher rates. In addition, TBE-R2 reduced and oxidized 3-ketosteroids at a higher rate in the presence of NAD(H) and/or NADP(H). Both enzyme activities were inhibited by quercitrin or p-chloromercuribenzoic acid, but little inhibition was observed with phenobarbital or pyrazole. Dicoumarol inhibited significantly TBE-R1 activity but not TBE-R2 activity. In the conversion of TBE to TBEH, TBE-R1 preferentially reduced TBE to (4R)-TBEH, whereas TBE-R2 preferred the reduction of TBE to (4S)-TBEH.

Abstract
Mouse lung carbonyl reductase, a member of the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase (SDR) family, exhibits coenzyme specificity for NADP(H) over NAD(H). Crystal structure of the enzyme-NADPH complex shows that Thr-38 interacts with the 2'-phosphate of NADPH and occupies the position spatially similar to an Asp residue of the NAD(H)-dependent SDRs that hydrogen-bonds to the hydroxyl groups of the adenine ribose of the coenzymes. Using site-directed mutagenesis, we constructed a mutant mouse lung carbonyl reductase in which Thr-38 was replaced by Asp (T38D), and we compared kinetic properties of the mutant and wild-type enzymes in both forward and reverse reactions. The mutation resulted in increases of more than 200-fold in the Km values for NADP(H) and decreases of more than 7-fold in those for NAD(H), but few changes in the Km values for substrates or in the kcat values of the reactions. NAD(H) provided maximal protection against thermal and urea denaturation of T38D, in contrast to the effective protection by NADP(H) for the wild-type enzyme. Thus, the single mutation converted the coenzyme specificity from NADP(H) to NAD(H). Calculation of free energy changes showed that the 2'-phosphate of NADP(H) contributes to its interaction with the wild-type enzyme. Changing Thr-38 to Asp destabilized the binding energies of NADP(H) by 3.9-4.5 kcal/mol and stabilized those of NAD(H) by 1.2-1.4 kcal/mol. These results indicate a significant role of Thr-38 in NADP(H) binding for the mouse lung enzyme and provide further evidence for the key role of Asp at this position in NAD(H) specificity of the SDR family proteins.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mouse lung carbonyl reductase (MLCR) is a member of the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase (SDR) family. Although it uses both NADPH and NADH as coenzymes, the structural basis of its strong preference for NADPH is unknown. RESULTS The crystal structure of the ternary complex of MLCR (with NADPH and 2-propanol) has been determined at 1.8 A resolution. This is the first three-dimensional structure of a carbonyl reductase, and MLCR is the first member of the SDR family to be solved in complex with NADPH (rather than NADH). Comparison of the MLCR ternary complex with three structures reported previously for enzymes of the SDR family (all crystallized as complexes with NADH) reveals a pair of basic residues (Lys17 and Arg39) making strong electrostatic interactions with the 2'-phosphate group of NADPH. This pair of residues is well conserved among the NADPH-preferring enzymes of the SDR family, but not among the NADH-preferring enzymes. In the latter, an aspartate side chain occupies the position of the two basic side chains. The aspartate residue, which would come into unacceptably close contact with the 2'-phosphate group of the adenosine moiety of NADPH, is replaced by a threonine or alanine in the primary sequences of NADPH-preferring enzymes of the SDR family. CONCLUSIONS The cofactor preferences exhibited by the enzymes of the SDR family are mainly determined by the electrostatic environment surrounding the 2'-hydroxyl (or phosphate) group of the adenosine ribose moiety of NADH (or NADPH). Thus, positively charged and negatively charged environments correlate with preference for NADPH and NADH respectively.

Abstract
The immunocytochemical localization of tetrameric carbonyl reductase in the mouse lung was determined by an electron-microscopical immunogold procedure using monospecific antibodies against the enzyme. The labelling of carbonyl reductase was observed within the mitochondria of the ciliated and non-ciliated cells of the bronchioles and the type II alveolar pneumocytes, and the density of labelling in the non-ciliated cells was higher than those in the other cells. No significant labelling was detected over other compartments of the epithelial cells. The labelling was undetectable in the type I alveolar cells, alveolar macrophages and connective tissue cells of the lung. These results clearly indicate the localization of carbonyl reductase to the mitochondrial matrix of these epithelial cells, of which the non-ciliated bronchiolar cells contained particularly high amounts of the enzyme.

Abstract
The NADPH-linked reductase activity of pig lung carbonyl reductase was activated two- to fivefold by fatty acids with a carbon chain length greater than nine at pH 7.0. cis-Unsaturated fatty acids of C:18 and C:20 were potent activators, showing Ka values of 2-14 microM which were lower than the values of 21-125 microM for saturated fatty acids (C:9 to C:16). Of the fatty acids arachidonic acid (C20:4) gave the highest activation. No significant stimulatory effect was observed with acyl CoAs, fatty alcohols, phospholipids, and nonionic detergents. Anionic detergents (sodium dodecyl sulfate and sarkosyl) stimulated the enzyme activity more than ninefold, but the Ka values for them were much higher than those for the cis-unsaturated fatty acids. Although no change in molecular weight or in subunit composition was observed in the enzyme activated by C20:4, the activation led to a decrease in thermal stability of the enzyme. The binding of C20:4 to the enzyme was instantaneous and reversible, shifted the pH optimum of the activity from 5.8 to 6.5, and changed the inhibitor sensitivity. In addition, C20:4 acted as an allosteric effector abolishing the negative interaction of the enzyme with carbonyl substrates which was seen without the fatty acid, but the activation increased both Vmax and [S]0.5 values for the substrates. Kinetic analysis with respect to NADPH concentration, in which no cooperativity was detected with or without C20:4, indicated that C20:4 was a nonessential activator of mixed type showing a binding constant of 10 microM. These results suggest that cis-unsaturated fatty acids may be potential modulators of pulmonary carbonyl reductase.
