Charles University in Prague Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Biochemical Sciences Candidate: Rudolf Andrýs Supervisor: prof. Ing. Vladimír Wsól, Ph.D Title of diploma thesis: Optimalization of purification of a human membrane-bound carbonyl reductase Carbonyl reductases are enzymes participating in metabolic pathways of various eobiotics and xenobiotics. Of all known enzymes metabolizing xenobiotics only 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 1 (11β-HSD1) is found in the microsomal membrane. It also contributes to metabolism of prochiral anticancer drug oracin, which main metabolic pathway is a carbonyl reduction on the position 11 leading to two enantiomers of (+) an (-) 11-dihydrooracin (DHO). Based on the discrepancy between microsomes and 11β-HSD1 stereospecifity of oracin reduction exist a hypothesis of participation an unknown microsomal enzyme in oracin metabolism. The aim of this study is to purify a new microsomal carbonyl reducing enzyme contributing in the biotransformation of oracin. Human liver microsomes were solubilised and desalted. The prepared sample was used for the first purification step on Q-Sepharose. Captured flow through fraction Q2 was loaded on Phenyl-sepharose. Captured suitable fraction P11 was used for third purification step by gel filtration. All...
