| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Fourteen CYPs which are drug metabolizing enzymes in human liver were reacted to more than eight kinds of adrenal steroids and their metabolites were identified. As a result, only CYP3A4 showed a various metabolite on HPLC chart. Production of androstendion from 17alpha-hydroxyprogesterone and 11-deoxycortisol by CYP3A4 was confirmed by GC-MS. It was revealed that CYP3A4 can catalyze side chain cleavage reaction (Lyase activity) to the steroids. 6beta-Hydoxy metabolite which were main metabolite from 11-deoxycortisol was identified. Then, Km and Vmax of 6beta-hydroxylase activity and Lyase activity against 11-deoxycortisol were determined and compared.
