Comments
Comment typeDescription
Biophysicochemical PropertiesKinetic parameters: KM=10.7 uM for phenacetin {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18779312};
Catalytic ActivityRH + reduced flavoprotein + O(2) = ROH + oxidized flavoprotein + H(2)O.
CofactorName=heme; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:30413;
FunctionExhibits a coumarin 7-hydroxylase activity. Active in the metabolic activation of hexamethylphosphoramide, N,N- dimethylaniline, 2'-methoxyacetophenone, N- nitrosomethylphenylamine, and the tobacco-specific carcinogen, 4- (methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone. Possesses phenacetin O-deethylation activity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18779312}.
PolymorphismThe frequencies of the Cys-257 allele in white, black, Hispanic, and Asian individuals are 1.9%, 14.4%, 5.8%, and 7.7%, respectively. The Cys-257 variant is 37 to 56% less active than the wild-type Arg-257 protein toward all substrates tested.
SimilarityBelongs to the cytochrome P450 family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationEndoplasmic reticulum membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Microsome membrane; Peripheral membrane protein.
Tissue SpecificityExpressed in liver and a number of extrahepatic tissues, including nasal mucosa, lung, trachea, brain, mammary gland, prostate, testis, and uterus, but not in heart, kidney, bone marrow, colon, small intestine, spleen, stomach, thymus, or skeletal muscle. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11016631}.
