✦ Synopsis

Cytochrome P450 of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is an inducible enzyme system. Hitherto, its induction was related to semi-anaerobic culture conditions and high glucose concentrations in the growth medium respectively. Since glucose and oxygen are main regulatory effectors in this yeast, the relationship between the occurrence of cytochrome P450 and these two effectors was established in continuous culture. At glucose-derepressed conditions it was not possible to induce the formation of cytochrome P450 by oxygen limitation alone. The oxygen supply had to be decreased to a level where glucose repression also became active. At glucose-repressed conditions cytochrome P450 was obtained in good yield (3 to 5 pmol per mg dry cell weight) below a dissolved oxygen tension of appproximately 15%. There was a correlation between the content of mitochondrial cytochromes and that of cytochrome P450. The presence of mitochondrial cytochromes was reciprocal with cytochrome P450 when its content was increased by lowering the dissolved oxygen tension.

A number of nystatin-resistant strains of S. cerevisiae have been isolated which are defective in lanosterol C-14 demethylation, a reaction normally catalysed by cytochrome P-450. In this paper two of these strains have been compared and found to have differences in their reduced-CO difference spect

An initial survey of 18 haploid strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae revealed that only 3 of these strains could produce a detectable level of cytochrome P-450. A cross between a cytochrome P-450 producing strain of S. cerevisiae (B/B) and a non-producing strain (D22) gave a diploid which was a non-p

The aim of this study was to test suitable culture conditions for maintaining normal cellular cytoarchitecture and inducibility of P450 enzymes in primary cultures of human hepatocytes by prototypical inducers. The selectivity and sensitivity of a sandwich culture system were determined by treating
