| Research Abstract |
Hepatic microsomal enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of aldehydes to carboxylic acids was characterized. The following results were obtained.
1) Microsomal aldehyde oxygenase (MALDO) in mouse liver catalyzed the oxidation of 9-anthraldehyde, cinnamic aldehyde, cuminaldehyde, myrtenal and 3-phenylpropionaldehyde.
2) A fluometric method for MALDO was established 9-anthraldehyde as a substrate.
3) A cytochrome P450 isozyme (P450 MUT-2) that catalyzes the oxidation 11-oxo-DELTA^8-tetrahydrocannabinol, 9ーanthraldehyde and cinnamic aldehyde was purified from hepatic microsomes of male ddN mice.
4) MALDO in mouse liver catalyzed the oxidation of aliphatic aldehydes.
5) Sex difference was observed in MALDO for 9-anthraldehyde in mouse liver.
6) P450 MUT-2 catalyzed the oxidation of tetrahydrocannabinol, cannabinol and cannabidiol but not those of testosterone and lanosterol.
