| Abstract | Human cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2B6 activates the anticancer prodrug cyclophosphamide (CPA) by 4-hydroxylation. In contrast, the same enzyme catalyzes N-deethylation of a structural isomer, the prodrug ifosfamide (IFA), thus causing severe adverse drug effects. To model the molecular interactions leading to a switch in regioselectivity, the structure of CYP2B6 was modeled based on the structure of rabbit CYP2C5. We modeled the missing 22-residue loop in CYP2C5 between helices F and G (the F–G loop), which is not resolved in the X-ray structure, by molecular dynamics (MD) simulations using a simulated annealing protocol. The modeled conformation of the loop was validated by unconstrained MD simulations of the complete enzymes (CYP2C5 and CYP2B6) in water for 70 and 120 ps, respectively. The simulations were stable and led to a backbone r.m.s. deviation of 1.7 Å between the two CYPs.The shape of the substrate binding site of CYP2B6 was further analyzed. It consists of three well-defined hydrophobic binding pockets adjacent to the catalytic heme. Size, shape and hydrophobicity of these pockets were compared to the shapes of the two structurally isomeric substrates. In their preferred orientation in the binding site, both substrates fill all three binding pockets without repulsive interactions. The distance to the heme iron is short enough for 4-hydroxylation and N-deethylation to occur for CPA and IFA, respectively. However, if the substrates are docked in the non-preferred orientation (such that 4-hydroxylation and N-deethylation would occur for IFA and CPA, respectively), one pocket is left empty, and clashes were observed between the substrates and the enzyme.Electronic supplementary material to this paper can be obtained by using the Springer Link server located at http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s00894-002-0104-y. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
