• There are two major P450 classes in terms of the native RP systems, namely, the prokaryotic Class I P450 consisting of three stand-alone components (redoxin reductase/redoxin/P450) that are all cytosolically soluble proteins and the two-component eukaryotic Class II P450 comprised of P450 and cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR), both of which are membrane-bound proteins.

  • Phylogenetic analysis indicated that a tryptophan residue corresponding to Trp359 is conserved across FprA-type enzymes and in adrenodoxin reductases. (manchester.ac.uk)
  • Key enzymes in the overall reactions are nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate reductase (NADPH)-cytochrome C reductase, the flavin enzyme involved in the oxidation of NADPH, cytochrome P- 450, which in its reduced form is generally considered to be A, and NADPH cytochrome P-450 reductase, which functions in the reduction of oxidized cytochrome P-450.
