Pedroni L, Louisse J, Dorne JLCM, Dall'Asta C, Dellafiora L. A computational study on the biotransformation of alkenylbenzenes by a selection of CYPs: Reflections on their possible bioactivation. Toxicology 2023; 488:153471. [PMID: 36863505 DOI: 10.1016/j.tox.2023.153471] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2023] [Revised: 02/23/2023] [Accepted: 02/27/2023] [Indexed: 03/03/2023]
Abstract
Alkenylbenzenes are aromatic compounds found in several vegetable foods that can cause genotoxicity upon bioactivation by members of the cytochrome P450 (CYP) family, forming 1'-hydroxy metabolites. These intermediates act as proximate carcinogens and can be further converted into reactive 1'-sulfooxy metabolites, which are the ultimate carcinogens responsible for genotoxicity. Safrole, a member of this class, has been banned as a food or feed additive in many countries based on its genotoxicity and carcinogenicity. However, it can still enter the food and feed chain. There is limited information about the toxicity of other alkenylbenzenes that may be present in safrole-containing foods, such as myristicin, apiole, and dillapiole. In vitro studies showed safrole as mainly bioactivated by CYP2A6 to form its proximate carcinogen, while for myristicin this is mainly done by CYP1A1. However, it is not known whether CYP1A1 and CYP2A6 can activate apiole and dillapiole. The present study uses an in silico pipeline to investigate this knowledge gap and determine whether CYP1A1 and CYP2A6 may play a role in the bioactivation of these alkenylbenzenes. The study found that the bioactivation of apiole and dillapiole by CYP1A1 and CYP2A6 is limited, possibly indicating that these compounds may have limited toxicity, while describing a possible role of CYP1A1 in the bioactivation of safrole. The study expands the current understanding of safrole toxicity and bioactivation and helps understand the mechanisms of CYPs involved in the bioactivation of alkenylbenzenes. This information is essential for a more informed analysis of alkenylbenzenes toxicity and risk assessment.

ZNF165 Is Involved in the Regulation of Immune Microenvironment and Promoting the Proliferation and Migration of Hepatocellular Carcinoma by AhR/CYP1A1. J Immunol Res 2022; 2022:4446805. [PMID: 35692498 PMCID: PMC9177304 DOI: 10.1155/2022/4446805] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2022] [Revised: 04/13/2022] [Accepted: 04/15/2022] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
The strong tumorigenic capacity and treatment resistance made hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) a huge threat to public health. ZNF165, the kruppel family of zinc-finger-containing transcription factors, is expressed in HCC; however, its specific role in HCC and the molecular mechanism are yet to be elucidated. In this study, we observed that ZNF165 was overexpressed in liver cancer tissues and the immune microenvironment; higher ZNF165 expression was correlated with lower overall survival in liver cancer patients. The ZNF165 knockdown in Bel7402 cells revealed the impairment of the tryptophan/kynurenine/AhR/CYP1A1 axis. Moreover, the knockdown of CYP1A1 significantly inhibited the proliferation and migration of HCC cells, and ZNF165 promoted the transcriptional activity of AhR by facilitating the nuclear translocation of CYP1A1. In conclusion, the present study argued that ZNF165 was highly expressed in liver tissues and the immune microenvironment. ZNF165 promoted the proliferation and migration of HCC cells by activating the tryptophan/kynurenine/AhR/CYP1A1 axis and promoting the expression of CYP1A1.

Abstract
Melatonin (MLT) is a well-known pineal hormone possessed with remarkable biological activities. However, its low oral bioavailability and high first-pass metabolism rate are important pharmacokinetics problems. Therefore, 5 MLT derivatives (1-5) were designed and synthesised in our group to solve these problems. In this work, in silico analysis of all synthetic derivatives for pharmacokinetic and drug-likeness parameters were predicted by SwissADME software. The results revealed that all derivatives (1-5) met the requirements for ideal oral bioavailability and CNS drugs. The molecular docking showed that the acetyl-MLT derivative (1) and the un-substitution at N1-position derivative 5 would be substrates of CYP1A2, while the lipophilic substituted N1-position derivatives 2-4 could not be metabolised by CYP1A2. Moreover, all N-amide derivatives (1-4) were hydrolysed and released less than 2.33% MLT after 4-hour incubation in 80% human plasma. It seemed that these derivatives preferred to behave like drugs rather than prodrugs of MLT. These findings confirmed that the addition of bulky groups at the N1-position of the MLT core could prolong the half-life, increase drug absorption and penetrate the blood brain barrier into the CNS.

Abstract
Cytochromes P450 are a class of metalloproteins which are responsible for electron transfer in a wide spectrum of reactions including metabolic biotransformation of endogenous and exogenous substrates. The superfamily of cytochromes P450 consists of families and subfamilies which are characterized by a specific structure and substrate specificity. Cytochromes P450 family 1 (CYP1s) play a distinctive role in the metabolism of drugs and chemical procarcinogens. In recent decades, these hemoproteins have been intensively studied with the use of computational methods which have been recently developed remarkably to be used in the process of drug design by the virtual screening of compounds in order to find agents with desired properties. Moreover, the molecular modeling of proteins and ligand docking to their active sites provide an insight into the mechanism of enzyme action and enable us to predict the sites of drug metabolism. The review presents the current status of knowledge about the use of the computational approach in studies of ligand-enzyme interactions for CYP1s. Research on the metabolism of substrates and inhibitors of CYP1s and on the selectivity of their action is particularly valuable from the viewpoint of cancer chemoprevention, chemotherapy, and drug-drug interactions.

Abstract
In the present study, full-length CYP1A cDNA from Catla catla (Catla) has been identified, and its real-time quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) expression has been evaluated in different tissues, developmental stages (0, 3, 6, 12 and 24 h and 5, 7 and 9 days post-fertilization) and copper sulphate and benzo(a)pyrene (BaP)-treated 5-day post-fertilization (dpf) larvae (6 to 6.5 mm). Various structural, comparative and phylogenetic analyses of the deduced amino acid sequence revealed that the identified gene of Catla belongs to the CYP1A1 subfamily. Among different tissues of Catla, the highest CYP1A expression was observed in the kidney followed by the liver, muscle, gill, intestine and brain. CYP1A mRNA expression was detected during all the larval developmental stages, including the unfertilized egg with the highest expression on 9 dpf. BaP (3.5 ppb) and copper sulphate (sublethal dose 0.516 ppm) challenge test for 96 h to Catla larvae revealed the highest CYP1A1 expression at 48 h post-challenge. CYP1A1 transcript also showed a concentration-dependent increase in expression following exposure at 1.75 and 3.5 ppb of BaP for 48 h. Its expression profiling indicates that it is functional at early developmental stages. It can also be used to develop a specific biomarker tool for monitoring environmental pollution.

Abstract
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and DDT are widespread environmental persistent organic pollutants that have various adverse effects on reproduction, development and endocrine function. In order to elucidate effects of PCBs and DDT on thyroid hormone homeostasis, Sprague-Dawley rats were dosed with PCB153 and p,p'-DDE intraperitoneally (ip) for five consecutive days and sacrificed within 24 h after the last dose. Results indicated that after combined exposure to PCB153 and p,p'-DDE, total thyroxine , free thyroxine, total triiodothyronine, and thyroid-stimulating hormone in serum were decreased, whereas free triiodothyronine and thyrotropin-releasing hormone were not affected. Thyroglobulin and transthyretin levels in serum were significantly reduced. mRNA expression of deiodinases 2 (D2) was also suppressed, while D1 and D3 levels were not significantly influenced after combined exposure. PCB153 and p,p'-DDE induced hepatic enzymes, UDPGTs, CYP1A1, CYP2B1, and CYP3A1 mRNA expressions being significantly elevated. Moreover, TRα1, TRβ1, and TRHr expressions in the hypothalamus displayed increasing trends after combined exposure to PCB153 and p,p'-DDE. Taken together, observed results indicate that PCB153 and p,p'-DDE could disorder thyroid hormone homeostasis via thyroglobulin, deiodinase 2, transthyretin, hepatic enzymes, and hormone receptors.

Abstract
Animals and humans are exposed to a wide array of xenobiotics and have developed complex enzymatic mechanisms to detoxify these chemicals. Detoxification pathways involve a number of biotransformations, such as oxidation, reduction, hydrolysis and conjugation reactions. The intermediate substances created during the detoxification process can be extremely toxic compared with the original toxins, hence metabolism should be accounted for when hazard effects of chemicals are assessed. Alternatively, metabolic transformations could detoxify chemicals that are toxic as parents. The aim of the present paper is to describe specificity of eukaryotic metabolism and its simulation and incorporation in models for predicting skin sensitization, mutagenicity, chromosomal aberration, micronuclei formation and estrogen receptor binding affinity implemented in the TIMES software platform. The current progress in model refinement, data used to parameterize models, logic of simulating metabolism, applicability domain and interpretation of predictions are discussed. Examples illustrating the model predictions are also provided.

Abstract
To obtain chemical clues on the process of bioactivation by cytochromes P450 1A1 and 1B1, some QSAR studies were carried out based on cellular experiments of the metabolic activation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and heterocyclic aromatic compounds by those enzymes. Firstly, the 3D structures of cytochromes 1A1 and 1B1 were built using homology modelling with a cytochrome 1A2 template. Using these structures, 32 ligands including heterocyclic aromatic compounds, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and corresponding diols, were docked with LigandFit and CDOCKER algorithms. Binding mode analysis highlighted the importance of hydrophobic interactions and the hydrogen bonding network between cytochrome amino acids and docked molecules. Finally, for each enzyme, multilinear regression and artificial neural network QSAR models were developed and compared. These statistical models highlighted the importance of electronic, structural and energetic descriptors in metabolic activation process, and could be used for virtual screening of ligand databases. In the case of P450 1A1, the best model was obtained with artificial neural network analysis and gave an r (2) of 0.66 and an external prediction [Formula: see text] of 0.73. Concerning P450 1B1, artificial neural network analysis gave a much more robust model, associated with an r (2) value of 0.73 and an external prediction [Formula: see text] of 0.59.

Abstract
Human CYP1A2 is one of the major CYPs in human liver and metabolizes a number of clinical drugs (e.g., clozapine, tacrine, tizanidine, and theophylline; n > 110), a number of procarcinogens (e.g., benzo[a]pyrene and aromatic amines), and several important endogenous compounds (e.g., steroids). CYP1A2 is subject to reversible and/or irreversible inhibition by a number of drugs, natural substances, and other compounds. The CYP1A gene cluster has been mapped on to chromosome 15q24.1, with close link between CYP1A1 and 1A2 sharing a common 5'-flanking region. The human CYP1A2 gene spans almost 7.8 kb comprising seven exons and six introns and codes a 515-residue protein with a molecular mass of 58,294 Da. The recently resolved CYP1A2 structure has a relatively compact, planar active site cavity that is highly adapted for the size and shape of its substrates. The architecture of the active site of 1A2 is characterized by multiple residues on helices F and I that constitutes two parallel substrate binding platforms on either side of the cavity. A large interindividual variability in the expression and activity of CYP1A2 has been observed, which is largely caused by genetic, epigenetic and environmental factors (e.g., smoking). CYP1A2 is primarily regulated by the aromatic hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) and CYP1A2 is induced through AhR-mediated transactivation following ligand binding and nuclear translocation. Induction or inhibition of CYP1A2 may provide partial explanation for some clinical drug interactions. To date, more than 15 variant alleles and a series of subvariants of the CYP1A2 gene have been identified and some of them have been associated with altered drug clearance and response and disease susceptibility. Further studies are warranted to explore the clinical and toxicological significance of altered CYP1A2 expression and activity caused by genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 (CYP450) enzymes are predominantly involved in the Phase I metabolism of xenobiotics. Metabolic inhibition and induction can give rise to clinically important drug-drug interactions. Metabolic stability is a prerequisite for sustaining the therapeutically relevant concentrations, and very often drug candidates are sacrificed due to poor metabolic profiles. Computational tools such as quantitative structure-activity relationships are widely used to study different metabolic end points successfully to accelerate the drug discovery process. There are a lot of computational studies on clinically important CYPs already reported in recent years. But other clinically significant families are to yet be explored computationally. Powerfulness of quantitative structure-activity relationship will drive computational chemists to develop new potent and selective inhibitors of different classes of CYPs for the treatment of different diseases with least drug-drug interactions. Furthermore, there is a need to enhance the accuracy, interpretability and confidence in the computational models in accelerating the drug discovery pathways.

Abstract
Comparative Quantitative Structure Activity Relationship (QSAR) analyses have been performed with 21 naturally occurring flavonoids for their inhibitory effects on cytochrome P450 1A2 enzyme using two-dimensional (topological, structural, and thermodynamic) and three-dimensional (spatial) descriptors. The chemometric tools used for the analyses are stepwise multiple linear regression, partial least squares, genetic function approximation, and genetic partial least squares. The data set was divided into a training set (n = 15) and test set (n = 6), based on K-means clustering technique applied on standardized two-dimensional descriptor matrix, and models were developed from the training set compounds. The best model (genetic partial least squares model using two-dimensional descriptors) was selected based on the highest external predictive R(2) (R(2)(pred)) value (0.840) and the lowest root mean square error of prediction value (0.351). The developed QSAR equations suggest the importance of the double bond present at 2 and 3 positions and requirement of absence of hydroxyl substituent or glycosidic linkage at 3 position of the 1,4-benzopyrone nucleus. Furthermore, the phenyl ring present at 2 position of the 1,4-benzopyrone ring should not be substituted with hydroxyl group. Moreover, hydroxyl groups present at 5 and 7 positions of the benzopyran nucleus should not be glycosylated for good cytochrome P450 1A2 enzyme inhibitory activity.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 1B1 (CYP1B1) is a heme-containing monooxygenase that metabolizes various polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and aryl amines, as well as retinoic acid and steroid hormones. Here we report the cloning of an ortholog of CYP1B1 from zebrafish and the demonstration that transcription of zebrafish CYP1B1 was modulated by two types of mechanisms during different developmental stage. First in late pharyngula stage before hatching, CYP1B1 was constitutively transcribed in retina, midbrain-hindbrain boundary and diencephalon regions through a close coordination between aryl hydrocarbon receptor 2 (AHR2)-dependent and AHR2-independent pathways. After hatching, the basal transcription was attenuated and it could not be elicited upon 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) exposure. In contrast, TCDD exposure induced de novo CYP1B1 transcription in larval branchial arches and heart tissues via an AHR2-dependent pathway. Blocking AHR2 translation completely eliminated the TCDD-mediated CYP1B1 transcription. However, we did not detect any types of CYP1B1 transcription in liver and kidney tissues through the developmental stage. It suggests that the constitutive and TCDD-inducible types of CYP1B1 transcriptions are modulated by distinct pathways with different tissue specificities. Finally, we investigated the role of CYP1B1 in TCDD-mediated embryonic toxicity. Because knockdown of CYP1B1 did not prevent TCDD-induced pericardial edema and cranial defects, it suggests that CYP1B1 is not involved in the developmental toxicity of dioxin.

Abstract
A comparison of all known mammalian CYP1A sequences identifies nineteen sequence regions that are conserved within all 1A1s or within all 1A2s but at the same time systematically differ between any 1A1 and any 1A2. The purpose of this study was to explore links between these specific CYP1A sequence signatures and substrate specificity shift through the kinetic analysis of combinatorial variants of increasing complexity. The less complex variants correspond to multiple mutations within a short segment of their sequence. The more complex variants correspond to mosaic P450s recombining 1A1 and 1A2 sequences (up to 5 crossovers per sequence). Fifty-eight such functional CYP1A variants and parental wild-type enzymes were expressed in yeast and assayed with 7-alkoxyresorufins and ethoxyflurorescein ethyl ester as substrates. Observed kinetic data were analyzed by multivariate statistical analyses and hierarchical clustering in order to highlight correlations and identify potential sequence-activity relationships within the three-dimensional function space investigated. Several variants are outliers in these representations and show a redistribution of their substrate specificity compared to wild-type CYP1As. Some combinations of sequence elements were identified that significantly discriminate between 1A1 and 1A2 for these three substrates. The comparison of this combinatorial approach with previous results of site-directed mutagenesis is discussed.

Abstract
TCDD (2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin) induces cytochromes P450 (CYPs) such as CYP1A1 and CYP1A2 via activation of the aromatic hydrocarbon receptor (AHR). Herein we describe the TCDD-dependent enrichment of CYPs in liver microsomes and mitoplasts from C57BL/6J mice. TCDD-induced accumulation of CYP1A1 and CYP1A2 was observed in microsomes and mitoplasts after treatment with 15 microg TCDD/kg/d for 3d. While microsomal CYP1 proteins peaked at 1 week and diminished thereafter, mitoplast CYP1 proteins persisted 8 weeks at high levels. TCDD also induced microsomal CYP2A5, but not microsomal proteins immunoreactive to CYP2C11, CYP3A2 or CYP4A1 antibodies. Nevertheless, each of these proteins increased in mitoplasts following TCDD exposure. These results suggest that TCDD increases mitochondrial CYP immunoreactive proteins under the transcriptional control of the AHR, as well as CYPs that are not under AHR control. We speculate that such mitochondrial CYPs may be involved in the generation, or mitigation, of the well-known TCDD-inducible oxidative stress response.

Abstract
Quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSARs) within substrates, inducers and inhibitors of cytochromes P450 involved in xenobiotic metabolism are reported, together with QSARs associated with induction, inhibition and metabolic rate. The importance of frontier orbitals and shape descriptors, such as planarity (estimated by the area/depth(2) parameter) and rectangularity (estimated by the length/width parameter) is discussed, particularly in the context of the COMPACT system which discriminates between several P450 families associated with the activation and detoxication of xenobiotics. The use of parameters, particularly those derived from homology modelling of mammalian (especially human) P450s that are involved in exogenous metabolism, in generating QSARs for P450 substrates is discussed in the context of explaining differences in the binding affinities of human P450 substrates which are pharmacologically active.

Abstract
As a part of the studies conducted by the Pharma SNPs Consortium (PSC), the enzyme activities of CYP1A2, CYP2A6 and CYP2B6 variants with altered amino acids as a result of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) found among the Japanese population were analyzed under a unified protocol using the same lots of reagents by the laboratories participating in the PSC. Mutations in CYP1A2, CYP2A6 and CYP2B6 were introduced by site-directed mutagenesis and the wild type and mutated CYP molecules were expressed in Escherichia coli. The expressed cytochrome P450s were purified and the enzyme activities were measured in reconstitution systems. CYP1A2 and CYP1A2Gln478His did not show any differences in 7-ethoxyresorufin O-deethylase activity. CYP2A6 and CYP2A6Glu419Asp metabolized coumarin to form 7-hydroxycoumarin in a similar manner, whereas CYP2A6Ile471Thr showed low activity compared to the wild-type CYP2A6. CYP2B6, CYP2B6Pro167Ala and CYP2B6Arg487Cys showed the same activity for 7-ethoxy-4-triflouromethyl-coumarin O-deethylation. However, CYP2B6Gln172His was roughly twice as active as CYP2B6 and the other CYP2B6 variants for 7-ethoxy-4-triflouromethylcoumarin O-deethylation activity. Although higher inter- and intra-laboratory variations were observed for the calculated Km and V(max) values because the studies were conducted in several different laboratories, the degree of variations was reduced by the increased number of analyses and the adoption of a simple analysis system.

Abstract
Derivatives of a CYP1A2 inhibitor rutaecarpine were synthesized to have potent and selective inhibition of human CYP1 members. Structural modelling shows a good fitting of rutaecarpine with the putative active site of human CYP1A2. Among the derivatives, 10- and 11-methoxyrutaecarpine are the most selective CYP1B1 inhibitors. 1-Methoxyrutaecarpine and 1,2-dimethoxyrutaecarpine are the most selective CYP1A2 inhibitors.

Abstract
Molecular modelling of human CYP1B1 based on homology with the mammalian P450, CYP2C5, of known three-dimensional structure is reported. The enzyme model has been used to investigate the likely mode of binding for selected CYP1B1 substrates, particularly with regard to the possible effects of allelic variants of CYP1B1 on metabolism. In general, it appears that the CYP1B1 model is consistent with known substrate selectivity for the enzyme, and the sites of metabolism can be rationalized in terms of specific contacts with key amino acid residues within the CYP1B1 heme locus. Furthermore, a mode of binding interaction for the inhibitor, alpha-naphthoflavone, is presented which accords with currently available information. The current paper shows that a combination of molecular modelling and experimental determinations on the substrate metabolism for CYP1B1 allelic variants can aid in the understanding of structure-function relationships within P450 enzymes.

Abstract
In vivo investigation of E-2-(4'-methoxybenzylidene)-1-benzosuberone (4a) on the 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA)-induced onco/tumor suppressor gene expressions suggested that inhibition of metabolic activation of DMBA might play a role in the observed activity of the compound. In order to explore this possible biological action we have investigated whether 4a and some of its structurally related analogues had inhibitory effects on the CYP1A enzymes. During our study 7-ethoxyresorufin O-dealkylation activity of CYP1A isoenzymes was measured in liver microsomes prepared from 3-methylcholanthrene treated male rats. Inhibition constants (K(i) values) were determined by using different concentrations of 7-ethoxyresorufin and the investigated chalcones (1), E-2-benzylidene-1-indanones (2), -tetralones (3) and -benzosuberones (4). Each compound was found to be a strong competitive inhibitor of the CYP1A enzymes. Their inhibitory activity was comparable with or even higher than that of 7,8-benzoflavone, the known strong CYP1A inhibitor used as reference substance. By proper selection of the substituents on the benzylidene moiety we investigated how the inhibitory activity (K(i) value) of 1-4 varied as a function of the ring size (n=0, 5, 6, 7) carbon atoms, and the nature as well as the position of the substituents. To test applicability of the previously set structural requirements for binding of xenobiotics to the CYP1A enzymes we compared some topological, physico-chemical and quantum mechanical parameters of 1-4 with 7-ethoxyresorufin and 7,8-benzoflavone, the investigated CYP1A substrate and inhibitor, respectively.

Abstract
Human cytochrome P450 1A1, which is present in lungs, plays an important role in the metabolic activation of chemical carcinogens, and in particular, is thought to be linked to lung cancer. The mechanism of carcinogenesis is related to the enzyme's ability to oxidize highly toxic compounds, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), to their carcinogenic derivatives. In order to better understand P450 1A1 function, a homology model of this enzyme has been constructed. The model has been based on the structure of P450 2C5, the first mammalian P450 to be crystallized. The coordinates of the model have been calculated using a consensus strategy, and the resulting structure has been evaluated with the ProStat and Profiles-3D programs. P450 1A1 substrates, such as benzo[a]pyrene, ethoxyresorufin and methoxyresorufin, were then docked into the active site of the model, and key amino acid residues able to interact with the substrate, have been identified. The analysis of enzyme-substrate interactions indicated that hydrophobic interactions are mainly responsible for binding of these substrates in the active site. Moreover, the non-bond enzyme-substrate interaction energy for ethoxyresorufin was lower than that for methoxyresorufin, which is consistent with higher activity of 1A1 towards the former substrate. Key residue Val-382 may play an important role in these interactions. Additionally, we performed binding free energy calculations for the three substrates. The obtained values were similar to those observed experimentally, which suggests that this approach might be useful for prediction of binding constants.

Abstract
A historical background to homology modelling of human P450s involved in drug metabolism is outlined, showing that the progress in crystallographic studies of bacterial forms of enzyme and, latterly, determination of a mammalian P450 crystal structure, has enabled the production of increasingly satisfactory models of human P450 enzymes. The methodology for the generation of P450 models by homology with crystallographic template structures is summarized, and recent results of CYP2C5-constructed models of P450s are described. These indicate that selective substrates are able to fit within the putative active sites of each enzyme, where key contacts with complementary amino acid residues are largely consistent with the results of site-directed mutagenesis experiments and metabolic studies. Consequently, the CYP2C5 crystal structure can be regarded at the current paradigm for homology modelling of the drug metabolizing P450s, especially those from the CYP2 family.

Abstract
The results of homology modeling of 10 human cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes involved in the Phase 1 metabolism of drugs and other foreign compounds are reported. The models have been constructed from the CYP102 hemoprotein domain template for which the substrate-bound crystallographic coordinates are available. Selective substrates of individual human P450s: CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP2E1, CYP3A4, and CYP4A11 are all shown to fit within the corresponding enzymes' active sites in such a manner that is consistent with reported experimental data for both known pathways of substrate metabolism and from the results of site-directed mutagenesis, either in those particular human P450 enzymes concerned or for ones within the same subfamily. The self-consistency of these homology models indicates that they may have potential utility for the pre-screening of novel drug structures.

Abstract
Criteria governing the avidity of substrate binding to human hepatic cytochromes P450 (CYP) associated with Phase 1 metabolism of drugs are described. The results of extensive quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) analyses are reported for substrates of human P450s: CYPIA2, CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP2E1, and CYP3A4, representing the enzymes exhibiting major involvement in the metabolism of drug substrates in Homo sapiens. In particular, it is shown that hydrogen bond properties in each class of enzyme-substrate complex are especially important factors in determining substrate binding affinity towards those human P450s which are involved in drug metabolism.

Abstract
The results of quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) analyses are reported for structurally diverse series of chemicals which act as substrates or inhibitors for human hepatic microsomal cytochromes P450 (CYP). In particular, this study focuses on the major catalysts of drug metabolism in man, namely CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6 and CYP3A4. It is found that good correlations (with correlation coefficients ranging from R = 0.94 to 0.99) with P450 binding affinity (Km and K(D)) or competitive inhibition (Ki) values are obtained in each case, especially when consideration of hydrogen bonding parameters are included in the QSAR analysis, together with the number of pi-pi stacking interactions.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes represent the major catalysts for the Phase 1 metabolism of drugs and other xenobiotics in Mammalia, including Homo sapiens. There is considerable current interest in evaluating and, consequently, predicting the metabolic fate of new chemical entities (NCEs) via modelling molecular interactions with P450 constructs, such that sites of metabolism, particular CYP involvement and binding affinities, can be estimated. This paper focuses on the principles for homology modelling of typical enzyme-substrate interactions within the putative active sites of major P450s associated with drug metabolism in man. It also represents an update on previously published work in this journal /1/.

Abstract
Replacement of phenylalanine 87 with alanine or glycine (mutant F87A or F87G) greatly increased the H2O2-supported substrate hydroxylation activity of cytochrome P450BM-3, whose original H2O2-supported activity is hardly detectable. On the other hand, replacement of phenylalanine 87 with valine (mutant F87V) did not. In the oxidation of p-nitrophenoxydodecanoic acid (12-pNCA), the turnover numbers of the mutant F87A in the presence of NADPH and O2, or H2O2 were 493 and 162 nmol/min/nmol, respectively. The H2O2-supported F87A hydroxylation activity was further confirmed with free fatty acids as substrates. Moreover, the stability of F87A in H2O2 solutions also largely increased. The order of the stability of the wild type (WT), F87A, and their substrate (12-pNCA)-binding complexes in H2O2 solutions listed from high to low was F87A, WT, F87A substrate-binding complex, and WT substrate-binding complex. We propose that the free space size in the vicinity of the heme iron significantly influences P450BM-3 H2O2-supported activity and H2O2 inactivation.

Abstract
Tetrapod cytochrome P4501 family (CYP1A1, CYP1A2 and CYP1B1) enzymes are most active in hydroxylating a variety of environmental contaminants including polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), planar polychlorinated biphenyls and arylamines and thus play a pivotal role in the toxicology of these compounds. Mammalian CYP1A1 and CYP1A2 genes appear to have diverged after the evolutionary emergence of mammals, whereas fish species apparently possess only one CYP1A family gene, and fish CYP1A enzymes exhibit properties of both of the mammalian isoforms. We have isolated a further CYP1 family gene from a marine flatfish (plaice; Pleuronectes platessa), which, on the basis of exon organisation and sequence similarity, can be assigned as a piscine CYP1B. Its deduced amino acid sequence shows the closest (54%) identity to mammalian CYP1B1 proteins and, on the basis of molecular modeling studies, shows a high degree of positional and structural conservation of the substrate contacting amino acid residues in its putative active site when compared to other CYP1 enzymes. Phylogenetic analysis of fish and mammalian CYP1 family sequences indicates that the plaice CYP1B and mammalian CYP1B1 genes share a common ancestry. Plaice CYP1B has a more restricted tissue expression profile than the previously isolated plaice CYP1A, only being detectable, by Northern blotting, in gill tissue. In contrast to CYP1A, which shows extensive PAH-dependent induction in a variety of tissues, plaice CYP1B appears unresponsive to treatment with a prototypical PAH-type inducer, beta-naphthoflavone (BNF).

Abstract
The factors with human P450 substrate selectivity are reviewed, together with extensive tabulation of quantitative relationships between structure and activity for many species of P450 substrates, inducers and inhibitors. In addition, the physicochemical characteristics (logP and pK(a) values) of heptic microsomal P450 substrates are collated, such that comparisons can be made on the grounds of compound lipophilicities.
