Abstract
Phenytoin has been an effective anticonvulsant agent for over 60 years, although its clinical use is complicated by nonlinear pharmacokinetics, a narrow therapeutic index, and metabolically based drug-drug interactions. Although it is well established that CYP2C9 is the major cytochrome P450 enzyme controlling metabolic elimination of phenytoin through its oxidative conversion to (S)-5-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-5-phenylhydantoin (p-HPPH), nothing is known about the amino acid binding determinants within the CYP2C9 active site that promote metabolism and maintain the tight stereocontrol of hydroxy metabolite formation. This knowledge gap was addressed here through the construction of nine active site mutants at amino acid positions Phe100, Arg108, Phe114, Leu208, and Phe476 and in vitro analysis of the steady-state kinetics and stereochemistry of p-HPPH formation. The F100L and F114W mutants exhibited 4- to 5-fold increases in catalytic efficiency, whereas the F100W, F114L, F476L, and F476W mutants lost >90% of their phenytoin hydroxylation capacity. This pattern of effects differs substantially from that found previously for (S)-warfarin and (S)-flurbiprofen metabolism, suggesting that these three ligands bind within discrete locations in the CYP2C9 active site. Only the F114L, F476L, and L208V mutants altered phenytoin's orientation during catalytic turnover. The L208V mutant also uniquely demonstrated enhanced 6-hydroxylation of (S)-warfarin. These latter data provide the first experimental evidence for a role of the F-G loop region in dictating the catalytic orientation of substrates within the CYP2C9 active site.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450s constitute a highly fascinating superfamily of enzymes which catalyze a broad range of reactions. They are essential for drug metabolism and promise industrial applications in biotechnology and biosensing. The constant search for cytochrome P450 enzymes with enhanced catalytic performances has generated a large body of research. This review will concentrate on two key aspects related to the identification and improvement of cytochrome P450 biocatalysts, namely the engineering and assaying of these enzymes. To this end, recent advances in cytochrome P450 development are reported and commonly used screening methods are surveyed.

Abstract
We indicated that two P450s (1A9 and 1C1) from Japanese eel (Anguilla japonica) metabolized 7-ethoxycoumarin, 7-ethoxyresorufin, and flavanone. At first, we constructed expression vectors for two types of P450 (1A9 and 1C1). The reduced CO-difference spectra of Escherichia coli cells transformed with these plasmids showed Soret peaks (450 nm) that were typical of P450s. We performed bioconversion experiments in which substrates were added directly to incubation medium. The resulting metabolite(s) were extracted and analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography and spectrofluorometer. Incubation of 50 nmol 7-ethoxyresorufin with P450 1C1 yielded 0.773 nmol of deethylated product, whereas 50 nmol 7-ethoxycoumarin resulted in 4.76 nmol. P450 1A9 metabolized 50 nmol of 7-ethoxyresorufin and 7-ethoxycoumarin to yield 6.54 and 20.9 nmol of deethylated product, respectively. Incubation of 50 nmol flavanone with P450 1C1 yielded 1.46 nmol and 0.69 nmol of products, whereas 50 nmol flavanone with P450 1A9 resulted in 1.10 nmol. In this system, 4'-hydroxy flavanones were formed by P450 1A9 and P450 1C1. P450 1A9 also metabolized 50 nmol of 17 beta-estradiol to yield 4.25 nmol of product. In this system, 2-hydroxy estradiol was formed by P450 1A9 using 17 beta-estradiol as a substrate. This study is the first to identify the substrates that P450 1C1 and 1A9 metabolize.

Abstract
The human lung cytochrome P450 2A13 (CYP2A13) activates the nicotine-derived procarcinogen 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK) into DNA-altering compounds that cause lung cancer. Another cytochrome P450, CYP2A6, is also present in human lung, but at much lower levels. Although these two enzymes are 93.5% identical, CYP2A13 metabolizes NNK with much lower K(m) values than does CYP2A6. To investigate the structural differences between these two enzymes the structure of CYP2A13 was determined to 2.35A by x-ray crystallography and compared with structures of CYP2A6. As expected, the overall CYP2A13 and CYP2A6 structures are very similar with an average root mean square deviation of 0.5A for the Calpha atoms. Like CYP2A6, the CYP2A13 active site cavity is small and highly hydrophobic with a cluster of Phe residues composing the active site roof. Active site residue Asn(297) is positioned to hydrogen bond with an adventitious ligand, identified as indole. Amino acid differences between CYP2A6 and CYP2A13 at positions 117, 300, 301, and 208 relate to different orientations of the ligand plane in the two protein structures and may underlie the significant variations observed in binding and catalysis of many CYP2A ligands. In addition, docking studies suggest that residues 365 and 366 may also contribute to differences in NNK metabolism.

Abstract
We developed a system for bioconverting diverse compounds using P450s produced in Escherichia coli. Vectors for the expressing various P450 cDNAs quickly and easily in E. coli were developed by using several restriction enzyme sites. Three types of P450 (2C2, 2C29, and 2D22) were produced using these plasmids. Substrates were directly added to the incubation medium and metabolized. To obtain pure product from the medium, we first tried production of P450 in synthetic medium. The amount of another P450 2C43 produced in the synthetic medium was similar to the amount produced in Luria broth (LB) medium. Next, estradiol, a steroid, was added as a substrate, incubated, and the metabolite was extracted and analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography. The metabolite extracted from synthetic medium was purer than that obtained from LB medium. Three P450s (2C29, 2C2, and 2A4) metabolized testosterone at different positions. P450 2C29 metabolized 7-ethoxycoumarin, androstendione, and dehydroepiandrosterone in this medium. P450s produced in the synthetic medium may be useful for producing various modified compounds for high-throughput screening.

Abstract
Human cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2A6 and 2A13 play an important role in catalyzing the metabolism of many environmental chemicals including coumarin, nicotine, and several tobacco-specific carcinogens. Both CYP2A6 and CYP2A13 proteins are composed of 494 amino acid residues. Although CYP2A13 shares a 93.5% identity with CYP2A6 in the amino acid sequence, it is only about one-tenth as active as CYP2A6 in catalyzing coumarin 7-hydroxylation. To identify the key amino acid residues that account for such a remarkable difference, we generated a series of CYP2A6 and CYP2A13 mutants by site-directed mutagenesis/heterologous expression and compared their coumarin 7-hydroxylation activities. In CYP2A6, the amino acid residues at position 117 and 372 are valine (Val) and arginine (Arg), respectively; whereas in CYP2A13, they are alanine (Ala) and histidine (His). Kinetic analysis revealed that the catalytic efficiency (Vmax/Km) of the CYP2A6 Val(117)--> Ala and Arg(372)--> His mutants was drastically reduced (0.41 and 0.64 versus 3.23 for the wild-type CYP2A6 protein). In contrast, the catalytic efficiency of the CYP2A13 Ala(117) --> Val and His(372) --> Arg mutants was greatly increased (2.65 and 2.60 versus 0.31 for wild-type CYP2A13 protein). These results clearly demonstrate that the Val at position 117 and Arg at position 372 are critical amino acid residues for coumarin 7-hydroxylation. Based on the crystal structure of CYP2C5, we have generated the homology models of CYP2A6 and CYP2A13 and docked the substrate coumarin to the active site. Together with the kinetic characterization, our structural modeling provides explanations for the amino acid substitution results and the insights of detailed enzyme-substrate interactions.

Abstract
The regioselectivity for progesterone hydroxylation by cytochrome P450 2B1 was re-engineered based on the x-ray crystal structure of cytochrome P450 2C5. 2B1 is a high K(m) progesterone 16alpha-hydroxylase, whereas 2C5 is a low K(m) progesterone 21-hydroxylase. Initially, nine individual 2B1 active-site residues were changed to the corresponding 2C5 residues, and the mutants were purified from an Escherichia coli expression system and assayed for progesterone hydroxylation. At 150 microm progesterone, I114A, F297G, and V363L showed 5-15% of the 21-hydroxylase activity of 2C5, whereas F206V showed high activity for an unknown product and a 13-fold decrease in K(m). Therefore, a quadruple mutant, I114A/F206V/F297G/V363L (Q), was constructed that showed 60% of 2C5 progesterone 21-hydroxylase activity and 57% regioselectivity. Based on their 2C5-like testosterone hydroxylation profiles, S294D and I477F alone and in combination were added to the quadruple mutant. All three mutants showed enhanced regioselectivity (70%) for progesterone 21-hydroxylation, whereas only Q/I477F had a higher k(cat). Finally, the remaining three single mutants, V103I, V367L, and G478V, were added to Q/I477F and Q/S294D/I477F, yielding seven additional multiple mutants. Among these, Q/V103I/S294D/I477F showed the highest k(cat) (3-fold higher than that of 2C5) and 80% regioselectivity for progesterone 21-hydroxylation. Docking of progesterone into a three-dimensional model of this mutant indicated that 21-hydroxylation is favored. In conclusion, a systematic approach to convert P450 regioselectivity across subfamilies suggests that active-site residues are mainly responsible for regioselectivity differences between 2B1 and 2C5 and validates the reliability of 2B1 models based on the crystal structure of 2C5.

Abstract
The porcine gonadal form of aromatase cytochrome P450 (P450arom) exhibits higher sensitivity to inhibition by the imidazole, etomidate, than the placental isozyme. The residue(s) responsible for this functional difference was mapped using chimeragenesis and point mutation analysis of the placental isozyme, and the kinetic analysis was conducted on native and mutant enzymes after overexpression in insect cells. The etomidate sensitivity of the placental isozyme was markedly increased by substitution of the predicted substrate recognition site-1 (SRS-1) and essentially reproduced that of the gonadal isozyme by substitution of SRS-1 and the predicted B helix. A single isoleucine (I) to methionine (M) substitution at position 133 of the placental isozyme (I(133)M) was proven to be the critical residue within SRS-1. Residue 133 is located in the B'-C loop and has been shown to be equally important in other steroid-metabolizing P450s. Single point mutations (including residues 110, 114, 120, 128, 137, and combinations thereof among others) and mutation of the entire B and C helixes were without marked effect on etomidate inhibitory sensitivity. The same mutation (I(133)M) introduced into human P450arom also markedly increased etomidate sensitivity. Mutation of Ile(133) to either alanine (I(133)A) or tyrosine (I(133)Y) decreased apparent enzyme activity, but the I(133)A mutant was sensitive to etomidate inhibition, suggesting that it is Ile(133) that decreases etomidate binding rather than Met(133) increasing enzyme sensitivity. Androstenedione turnover and affinity were similar for the I(133)M mutant and the native placental isozyme. These data suggest that Ile(133) is a contact residue in SRS-1 of P450arom, emphasize the functional conservation that exists in SRS-1 of a number of steroid-hydroxylating P450 enzymes, and suggest that substrate and inhibitor binding are dependent on different contact points to varying degrees.

Abstract
Many heterocyclic amines (HCA) present in cooked food exert a genotoxic activity when they are metabolised (N-oxidated) by the human cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2h). In order to rationalize the observed differences in activity of this enzyme on a series of 12 HCA, 3D-QSAR methods were applied on the basis of models of HCA-CYP1A2h complexes. The CYP1A2h enzyme model has been previously reported and was built by homology modeling based on cytochrome P450 BM3. The complexes were automatically generated applying the AUTODOCK software and refined using AMBER. A COMBINE analysis on the complexes identified the most important enzyme-ligand interactions that account for the differences in activity within the series. A GRID/GOLPE analysis was then performed on just the ligands, in the conformations and orientations found in the modeled complexes. The results from both methods were concordant and confirmed the advantages of incorporating structural information from series of ligand-receptor complexes into 3D-QSAR methodologies.
