摘要：The influence of para substituent of phenol on the property of phospholipid dependence of uridine diphosphate-glucuronyltransferase (UDPGT) was studied using hepatic microsomes of the rats. para Substituents used were p-ethyl, p-tert-butyl and p-phenyl. Glucuronidations of phenol and its derivatives were inhibited with each other. When phospholipids of the microsomes were removed with phospholipase A2, Vmax and Km decreased in the order phenol, p-ethylphenol, p-tert-butylphenol, p-phenylphenol, indicating that this change by delipidation increased with van der Waals volume (Vw) of para substituent. Arrhenius plots of glucuronidation for phenol and p-ethylphenol exhibited a change in slope, responding to thermotropic property of the membrane labelled with 1, 6-diphenyl-1, 3, 5-hexatriene (DPH). In contrast, p-tert-butyl and p-phenyl substituents showed linear Arrhenius plots. The activation energy (Ea) for glucuronidation of p-phenylphenol was increased by delipidation, whereas Ea of other substrates did not show any remarkable change.
