Research Abstract |
A family of protoheme-containing enzymes, collectively called cytochrome P-450(P-450), are involved in a variety of oxidative reactions. Eukaryotic P-450 is a membranebound enzyme, and thus its tertiary structure may differ somewhat from the crystal structure of the soluble bacterial P-450_<cam> decided by Poulos. We had previously developed an efficient expression system for rat liver P-450_d in the Saccharomyces cerevisiae. With site-directed mutageneses, the roles of each amino acids were clarified.
