Structure-activity relationship for human cytochrome P450 substrates and inhibitors

David F V Lewis et al. Drug Metab Rev. 2002 Feb-May.

Abstract

Criteria governing the avidity of substrate binding to human hepatic cytochromes P450 (CYP) associated with Phase 1 metabolism of drugs are described. The results of extensive quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) analyses are reported for substrates of human P450s: CYPIA2, CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP2E1, and CYP3A4, representing the enzymes exhibiting major involvement in the metabolism of drug substrates in Homo sapiens. In particular, it is shown that hydrogen bond properties in each class of enzyme-substrate complex are especially important factors in determining substrate binding affinity towards those human P450s which are involved in drug metabolism.
