Abstract

The dicoumarol-sensitive NAD(P)H:quinone reductase (E.C.1.6.99.2), often referred to as DT-diaphorase, has been purified from both the cytosolic and microsomal fractions from rat liver using a novel, highly efficient, two-step purification procedure utilizing immobilized Cibacron Blue F3GA dye affinity chromatography as the principal step. Under the conditions reported here, this dye affinity resin, generally recognized as preferentially binding nucleotide-dependent proteins, was highly selective in the recovery of up to 95% of the NAD(P)H:quinone reductase directly from the cytosol as a preparation which was often greater than 90% pure. Further purification by gel exclusion chromatography resulted in pure protein preparations with final recoveries approaching 80%. Similar results were obtained during the purification of this quinone reductase activity from microsomal extracts. Evidence is presented which suggests that the enzymes isolated from each cellular fraction are highly homologous, if not identical; data are consistent with genetic evidence.

    Immunoprecipitation of purified recombinant human NQO1 was carried out as described previously [15]. Recombinant human NQO1 (rhNQO1) was purified as described previously [26]. Reactions (30 μl) containing rhNQO1 (2.5 μg) were incubated in 62.5 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.0 containing 1.2 M sucrose, 0.01% bromophenol blue and 5 μM FAD in the presence and absence of 500 μM NADH and/or 50 μM MI2321 for 30 min at room temperature.

    Cytosolic protein, 50 μg. The enzyme activity was measured as the rate of menadione reduction, which was monitored at 340 nm using a Beckman DU-640 spectrophotometer (Sharkis and Swenson, 1989). The level of alpha- and pi-class GST proteins was quantitatively assayed using a commercial EIA reagent kit with anti-rat GST alpha or anti-rat GST pi class specific antibody and horseradish peroxidase complex (Biotrin, Dublin, Ireland).

    Induction is considered to occur via both ARE and XRE elements in the NQO1 promoter [11,12] and is also under the control of the Nrf2/Keap1 system [13,14]. The enzyme is mainly cytosolic although small mitochondrial and microsomal pools have been identified in rat liver [1,15,16]. A small nuclear pool of NQO1 has been characterized in human tumor cells [17] and in humans, NQO1 activity is found mainly in epithelial and endothelial tissues [18].
