[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CP3A4_HUMAN CP3A4_HUMAN] Cytochromes P450 are a group of heme-thiolate monooxygenases. In liver microsomes, this enzyme is involved in an NADPH-dependent electron transport pathway. It performs a variety of oxidation reactions (e.g. caffeine 8-oxidation, omeprazole sulphoxidation, midazolam 1'-hydroxylation and midazolam 4-hydroxylation) of structurally unrelated compounds, including steroids, fatty acids, and xenobiotics. Acts as a 1,8-cineole 2-exo-monooxygenase. The enzyme also hydroxylates etoposide.<ref>PMID:11159812</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Cytochromes P450 (CYPs) are a superfamily of enzymes responsible for biosynthesis and drug metabolism. Monitoring the activity of CYP3A4, the major human drug-metabolizing enzyme, is vital for assessing the metabolism of pharmaceuticals and identifying harmful drug-drug interactions. Existing probes for CYP3A4 are irreversible turn-on substrates that monitor activity at specific time points in end-point assays. To provide a more dynamic approach, we designed, synthesized, and characterized emissive Ir(III) and Ru(II) complexes that allow monitoring of the CYP3A4 active-site occupancy in real time. In the bound state, probe emission is quenched by the active-site heme. Upon displacement from the active site by CYP3A4-specific inhibitors or substrates, these probes show high emission turn-on. Direct probe binding to the CYP3A4 active site was confirmed by X-ray crystallography. The lead Ir(III)-based probe has nanomolar Kd and high selectivity for CYP3A4, efficient cellular uptake, and low toxicity in CYP3A4-overexpressing HepG2 cells.
