Probing protein-protein and protein-substrate interactions in the dynamic membrane-associated ternary complex of cytochromes P450, b5, and reductase

Chem Commun (Camb). 2019 Nov 18;55(89):13422-13425. doi: 10.1039/c9cc05904k. Epub 2019 Oct 22.

Abstract

Cytochrome P450 (cytP450) interacts with two redox partners, cytP450 reductase and cytochrome-b5, to metabolize substrates. Using NMR, we reveal changes in the dynamic interplay when all three proteins are incorporated into lipid nanodiscs in the absence and presence of substrates.
