Popis: | 1. The biological degradation of tetraethyl lead to the triethyl lead cation by rat-liver microsomes from untreated, phenobarbital-pretreated and methylcholanthrene-pretreated rats has been studied; NADPH and oxygen are essential.2. The reaction is inhibited by CO and can be reactivated in the presence of O2 by irradiation with u.v. light with a max. at 450nm.3. Substrate binding to cytochrome P-450 is of type 1.4. Apparent Km values for triethyl lead formation in microsomes were determined. The highest activities (i.e. about 2 nmol triethyl lead per nmol cytochrome P-450 per min) and the lowest apparent Km values (i.e. 7 × 10-6 M) are found in microsomes from methylcholanthrene-pretreated rats.5. In microsomes from control and phenobarbital-pretreated rats Ks values from substrate-binding studies (about 2 × 10-6M) are one order of magnitude lower than the apparent Km values (3 × 10-5 M). |
