1 Binding of a metyrapone spin label to microsomal cytochrome P-450. Metyrapone cytochrome P450 family 4 subfamily F member 3 Homo sapiens
2 Probing of the active site of microsomal cytochrome P-450 was carried out with a spin label derived from 2-methyl-1,2-bis(3-pyridyl)-1-propanone (metyrapone). Metyrapone cytochrome P450 family 4 subfamily F member 3 Homo sapiens
3 Probing of the active site of microsomal cytochrome P-450 was carried out with a spin label derived from 2-methyl-1,2-bis(3-pyridyl)-1-propanone (metyrapone). Metyrapone cytochrome P450 family 4 subfamily F member 3 Homo sapiens
4 Its optical binding spectra to cytochrome P-450 resemble the spectra with metyrapone. Metyrapone cytochrome P450 family 4 subfamily F member 3 Homo sapiens
5 Since the apparent optical and EPR binding constants agree very well (Ks approximately 2-10(-5) M), and metyrapone is found to displace the spin label, we conclude, that the spin label binds to the active site of cytochrome P-450. Metyrapone cytochrome P450 family 4 subfamily F member 3 Homo sapiens
6 This supports the model that one of the pyridine nitrogens of metyrapone is coordinated to the iron of cytochrome P-450. Metyrapone cytochrome P450 family 4 subfamily F member 3 Homo sapiens
