Cytochrome P450 Monooxygenases William Green Leland Taylor 4/12/11
Background • P450s are heme-containing enzymes that produce functionalized organic substrates • Two main pathways of P450 monooxygenasese: • Biosynthetic Pathway: • Leads to syntheiss of: UV protectants (flavonoids), anthocyanins, isoflavonoids/phytoalexins, fatty acids, hormones, signaling molecules, carotenoids, terpenes (defense compounds), and lignins (structural compounds) • Detoxification Pathway: • Drugs, carcinogens, herbicides and insecticides are all detoxified by P450 controlled hydroxylations • Superfamily containing more than 450 CYP sequences among at least 65 gene families • All P450s contain a highly conserved Amino Acid motif found near the C terminus: F- -G-R-C-G
P450 identification • Arabidopsis p450 data set • http://www.p450.kvl.dk/ • tBlastn against blueberry data (454 database) • 272 query’s • Multiple hits per query (identified by gene) • Parse data to find partial/whole genes
P450s of Interest • CYP74B2 – Hydroperoxidelyase • Electron carrier/heme binding • Fatty acid metabolism • Possibly related to Allene oxide synthase • Involved in the response to wounding • CYP75B1 – Flavonoid 3’-monooxygenase • Involved in Flavonoid biosynthesis • Hydroxylated derivatives are common flower pigments in related species • CYP73A5 – Cinnamate-4-Hydroxylase • Involved in phenylpropanoid pathway • Lignin, flavonoids, lignans, stilbenes, etc.

Order/Orientation Mixup • P450 linked to flavonoid • Visual results of hits on one scaffold • N’s in between sequence. Must make a guess at orientation. • This evidence shows it should be flipped 4 234 18277 18972 28588 29010 454 scaffold00711 SEQ-N-SEQ SEQ-442N Rev Comp Rev Comp Arab.

Further Work • Focus on other P450s of interest • CYP88A2: involved in gibberlin synthesis (growth factors) • Etc. • Connect P450s with other gene pathways • Develop phylogenetic distribution of P450s
