Abstract：
:Twelve site-directed mutants of rat cytochrome P450 2B1 distributed over seven positions and four putative substrate recognition sites (SRS) were constructed and expressed in COS cells. Function was examined using androstenedione and testosterone as substrates. Substitutions at positions 303, 360, and 473 did not markedly affect the regio- or stereoselectivity of androgen metabolism, whereas mutants in positions 206 (SRS-2), 302 (SRS-4), and 363 and 367 (SRS-5) exhibited markedly different steroid metabolite profiles compared with parental P450 2B1. In particular, the Phe-206-->Leu substitution conferred androgen 6 alpha- and testosterone 7 alpha-hydroxylase activities, and the Thr-302-->Ser substitution suppressed androgen 16 beta-hydroxylation in favor of androstenedione 16 alpha- and testosterone 15 alpha-hydroxylation. Replacement of Val-363 or Val-367 with Ala conferred androgen 15 alpha-hydroxylase and 6 beta-hydroxylase activities, respectively, and suppressed susceptibility to mechanism-based inactivation by the P450 2B1-selective chloramphenicol analog N-(2-p-nitrophenethyl)chlorofluoroacetamide. The Val-367-->Ala mutant was also resistant to chloramphenicol itself. The Leu mutant at position 363 exhibited increased specificity for androstenedione and testosterone 16 beta-hydroxylation, whereas the Leu mutant at position 367 exhibited decreased stereospecificity. Most interestingly, the size of key residues identified plays a critical role in governing steroid hydroxylation from the alpha-face or beta-face and hydroxylation on the D-ring or the B-ring.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
