1. Cytochrome P-450 and the associated components and oxidative activities of a mixed-function oxidase (MFO) system are localized primarily in the microsomes of the digestive gland of molluscs. 2. Cytochrome P-450 and putative cytochrome P-450-catalysed oxidative activities, measured in vitro and/or in vivo, have variously been detected in 23 species of mollusc. 3. Cytochrome P-450 and other MFO components and activities may be increased by exposure to xenobiotics, but the results are variable and no correlation is obvious between changes in cytochrome P-450 content and measured MFO activities (benzo[a]pyrene hydroxylase (BPH) and 7-ethoxycoumarin O-deethylase (ECOD)). 4. Type II binding compounds (clotrimazole, miconazole, ketoconazole, metyrapone and pyridine) give type II difference spectra with mussel digestive gland microsomal P-450, whereas type I binding compounds (testosterone, 7-ethoxycoumarin, alpha-naphthoflavone, SKF525-A) give apparent reverse type I difference spectra. 5. The existence of multiple or particular forms (P450 IVA or LAw) of cytochrome P-450 is indicated from enzyme kinetics and inhibition studies, seasonality, purification studies and cDNA probes. 6. Microsomal MFO activities are observed even in the absence of added or generated NADPH, and the NADPH-independent BPH, ECOD and N,N-dimethylaniline N-demethylase activities are inhibited by reducing agents, including NADPH. 7. The major metabolites of microsomal benzo[a]pyrene metabolism are quinones. 8. One-electron oxidation is considered to be one possible mechanism of molluscan cytochrome P-450 catalytic action.
