Data taken from in vitro human liver microsomes investigating the inhibitory effect of trospium on seven cytochrome P450 isoenzyme substrates ( CYP1A2, 2A6, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, 2E1, and 3A4 ) suggest a lack of inhibition at clinically relevant concentrations.

Alternatively expression in Escherichia coli of whole or truncated proteins can also be performed . ca Therefore, microsomes are a valuable tool for investigating the metabolism of compounds ( enzyme inhibition, clearance and metabolite identification ) and for examining drug-drug interactions by in vitro-research.

This strain could theoretically be used as a safer crop for fodder in arid environments where sorghum is the only available grain . " In vitro " biosynthesis of dhurrin has been constructed in both microsomes recovered from " Sorghum bicolor " seedlings and in micelles.

There appear to be at least two enzymes that can produce a phosphatidylcholine molecule from 1-lysoPC . 2-acylglycerophosphocholine O-acyltransferase, an enzyme purified in liver microsomes, catalyzes specifically the acylation of 1-lysoPC with acyl-CoA to create a phosphatidylcholine molecule.

Researchers use microsomes to mimic the activity of the endoplasmic reticulum in a test tube and conduct experiments that require protein synthesis on a membrane; they provide a way for scientists to figure out how proteins are being made on the ER in a cell by reconstituting the process in a test tube.

Cytochrome P450 ( CYP450 ) microsome ?-hydroxylases viz ., CYP4A11, CYP4A22, CYP4F2, and CYP4F3 in humans, Cyp4a10 and Cyp4a12 in mice, and Cyp4a1, Cyp4a2, Cyp4a3, and Cyp4a8 in rats metabolize arachidonic acid and many arachidnonic acid metabolites to their corresponding omega hydroxyl products.

The precise molecular function of " MORT " remains enigmatic; however, it is known that " MORT " is found preferentially in the cell cytoplasm with differential density centrifugation indicating that " MORT " is enriched in the 100, 000 g fraction, which contains polysomes, microsomes, endoplasmic reticulum, and the plasma membrane.

In humans, a subset of Cytochrome P450 ( CYP450 ) microsome-bound ?-hydroxylases ( termed Cytochrome P450 omega hydroxylases ) metabolize arachidonic acid ( also known as eicosatetraenoic acid ) to 20-hydroxyeicosatetreaneoic acid ( 20-HETE ) . 20-HETE possesses a range of activities in animal and cellular model systems, e . g . it constricts blood vessels, alters the kidney's reabsorption of salt and water, and promotes the growth of cancer cells; genetic studies in humans suggest that 20-HETE contributes to hypertension, myocardial infarction, and brain stroke ( see 20-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid ).
