Biochem Biophys Res Commun. 1984 Dec 28;125(3):1089-95. doi: 10.1016/0006-291x(84)91395-0.

Abstract

Untreated monkey liver cytochrome P-450 (monkey P-450) has been purified to a specific content of 14.9 n mole/mg protein. The purified preparation was apparently homogeneous and the minimum molecular weight was estimated to be 50,000 by SDS-PAGE. Absolute spectrum of the oxidized form showed peaks at 565, 535 and 417 nm. The monkey P-450 was active in the mixed function oxidation of benzphetamine, aminopyrine, ethylmorphine, aniline and 7-ethoxycoumarin in the presence of rat liver NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase and DLPC. Anti monkey P-450 IgG could not inhibit rat P-450s (PB P-450, MC P-448(1) and MC P-448(2] catalyzed 7-ethoxycoumarin O-deethylation activities.
