Abstract:
:Total RNA isolated from a rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) liver was subjected to RT/PCR using degenerate primers designed from homologous regions amongst cytochrome P450 CYP4 proteins. PCR amplification resulted in a single electrophoretic band which was excised, purified and sequenced directly, using cycle sequencing. The deduced protein sequence demonstrated the closest amino acid identity to rabbit CYP4B1 (54.6%) and rat CYP4B2 (55.4%). Phylogenic analysis of this sequence was found to be significantly different to any other CYP4 sequence and has been named CYP4T1. This represents the first CYP4 family member to be identified in an aquatic vertebrate.
