Mutual Influence of Human Cytochrome P450 Enzymes and UDP-Glucuronosyltransferases on Their Respective Activities in Recombinant Fission Yeast

Cytochromes P450 (CYPs) and UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) are the most important human drug metabolizing enzymes, but their mutual interactions are poorly understood. In this study, we recombinantly co-expressed of each one of the 19 human members of the UGT families 1 and 2 with either CYP2C9...

description Cytochromes P450 (CYPs) and UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) are the most important human drug metabolizing enzymes, but their mutual interactions are poorly understood. In this study, we recombinantly co-expressed of each one of the 19 human members of the UGT families 1 and 2 with either CYP2C9, CYP2D6, or CYP4Z1 in fission yeast. Using these strains, we monitored a total of 72 interactions: 57 cases where we tested the influence of UGT co-expression on CYP activity and 15 cases of the opposite approach. In the majority of cases (88%), UGT co-expression had a statistically significant (<i>p</i> < 0.05) effect on P450 activity (58% positive and 30% negative). Strong changes were observed in nine cases, including one case with an activity increase by a factor of 23 (CYP2C9 activity in the presence of UGT2A3) but also four cases with a complete loss of activity. When monitoring the effect of CYP co-expression on the activity of five UGTs, activity changes were generally not so pronounced and, if observed, always detrimental. UGT2B7 activity was not influenced by CYP co-expression, while the other UGTs were affected to varying degrees. These data suggest the notion that mutual influence of CYPs and UGTs on each other’s activity is a widespread phenomenon.
