ABSTRACT
The presence of homologues of rabbit cytochrome P-450 isozyme 5 in pulmonary and hepatic microsomal preparations from guinea pig, mouse, monkey, hamster, and rat was examined by immunoblotting and inhibition of metabolism of 2-aminofluorene with antibodies to isozyme 5. Homologues to isozyme 5 were detected in pulmonary preparations from all five species. However, only hepatic preparations from hamster, in addition to those from rabbit, contained detectable levels of this isozyme. With the exception of induction by phenobarbital in rabbit liver, treatment of animals with phenobarbital or tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin did not increase hepatic or pulmonary content of isozyme 5 homologues or the amount of 2-aminofluorene metabolism inhibited by antibodies to isozyme 5. Metabolism of 2-aminofluorene was measured both colorimetrically (formation of a reduced iron chelate from the N-hydroxyfluorene metabolite) and radiochemically (separation of 3H-metabolites by high performance liquid chromatography and quantitation by scintillation counting). A turnover number of 48 nmol of product X min-1 X nmol of enzyme-1 for isozyme 5-catalyzed metabolism of 2-aminofluorene was determined with incubations containing isozyme 5 purified from rabbit lung. A similar turnover number was calculated from the rabbit hepatic microsomal activity inhibited by antibodies to isozyme 5 and the microsomal isozyme 5 content measured by immunoquantitation. In other species, amounts of metabolism inhibited by antibodies to isozyme 5 agreed qualitatively with relative staining intensities on immunoblots. In all species except the hamster, rates of total and isozyme 5-catalyzed metabolism of 2-aminofluorene were greater with pulmonary than with hepatic microsomal preparations from untreated animals.
