Crystal Structure of Human Microsomal P450 2A6 with Methoxsalen Bound

Overview

Human microsomal cytochrome P450 2A6 (CYP2A6) contributes extensively to, nicotine detoxication but also activates tobacco-specific procarcinogens, to mutagenic products. The CYP2A6 structure shows a compact, hydrophobic, active site with one hydrogen bond donor, Asn297, that orients coumarin, for regioselective oxidation. The inhibitor methoxsalen effectively fills, the active site cavity without substantially perturbing the structure. The, structure should aid the design of inhibitors to reduce smoking and, tobacco-related cancers.

About this Structure

1Z11 is a Single protein structure of sequence from Homo sapiens with HEM and 8MO as ligands. Active as Unspecific monooxygenase, with EC number 1.14.14.1 Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
