Microsomal epoxide hydrolase was purified from rat liver, and different fractions of the purified enzyme, which varied in their contents of phospholipid, were obtained by ion-exchange chromatography. One fraction (A), which did not bind to CM-cellulose, had a high phospholipid content, and a second fraction (B), which was eluted from CM-cellulose at high ionic strength, had a low phospholipid content. Removal of most of the phospholipid from fraction A altered its chromatographic behaviour. When the delipidated material was re-applied to CM-cellulose, most of the enzyme bound to the cation-exchanger. The specific activities of all the fractions described (with styrene epoxide [(1,2-epoxyethyl)benzene] as substrate) were altered by adding the non-ionic detergent Lubrol PX or phospholipid. Lubrol PX inhibited enzyme activity, and phospholipid reversed this inhibition. The various enzyme fractions isolated appeared to be different forms of the same protein, as judged by their minimum Mr values and immunochemical properties. These results indicate that different fractions of epoxide hydrolase isolated by ion-exchange chromatography probably are not different isoenzyme forms.
