Cytochrome P450 2B1 has been subjected to directed evolution to investigate the role of amino acid residues outside of the active site and to engineer novel, more active P450 catalysts. A high throughput screening system was developed to measure H2O2-supported oxidation of the marker fluorogenic substrate 7-ethoxy-4-trifluoromethylcoumarin (7-EFC). Random mutagenesis by error-prone polymerase chain reaction and activity screening were optimized using the L209A mutant of P450 2B1 in an N-terminally modified construct with a C-terminal His tag (P450 2B1dH). Two rounds of mutagenesis and screening and one subcloning step yielded the P450 2B1 quadruple mutant V183L/F202L/L209A/S334P, which demonstrated a 6-fold higher k(cat) than L209A. Further random or site-directed mutagenesis did not improve the activity. When assayed in an NADPH-supported reconstituted system, V183L/L209A demonstrated lower 7-EFC oxidation than L209A. Therefore, F202L/L209A/S334P was generated, which showed a 2.5-fold higher k(cat)/K-m for NADPH-dependent 7-EFC oxidation than L209A. F202L/L209A/S334P also showed enhanced catalytic efficiency with 7-benzyloxyresorufin, benzphetamine, and testosterone, and a 10-fold increase in stereoselectivity for testosterone 16 alpha- versus 16 beta-hydroxylation compared with 2B1dH. Enhanced catalytic efficiency of F202L/L209A/S334P was also retained in the full-length P450 2B1 background with 7-EFC and testosterone as substrates. Finally, the individual mutants were tested for metabolism of the anti-cancer prodrugs cyclophosphamide and ifosfamide. Several of the mutants showed increased metabolism via the therapeutically beneficial 4-hydroxylation pathway, with L209A/S334P showing 2.8-fold enhancement of k(cat)/K-m with cyclophosphamide and V183L/L209A showing 3.5-fold enhancement with ifosfamide. Directed evolution can thus be used to enhance P450 2B1 catalytic efficiency across a panel of substrates and to identify functionally important residues distant from the active site.
