Abstract

AbstractHuman cytochrome CYP1A2 is one of the major hepatic cytochrome P450s involved in many drugs metabolism, and chemical carcinogens activation. The CYP1A2‐dsDNA interaction in situ evaluation using a DNA‐electrochemical biosensor and differential pulse voltammetry was investigated. A dsDNA‐electrochemical biosensor showed that CYP1A2 interacted with dsDNA causing conformational changes in the double helix chain and DNA oxidative damage. A preferential interaction between the dsDNA guanosine residues and CYP1A2 was found, as free guanine and 8‐oxoguanine, a DNA oxidative damage biomarker, oxidation peaks were detected. This was confirmed using guanine and adenine homopolynucleotides‐electrochemical biosensors. The CYP1A2‐dsDNA interaction and dsDNA conformation changes was also confirmed by UV‐Vis spectrophotometry.
