19434638 Chougnet A, Woggon WD, Locher E, Schilling B: Synthesis and in vitro activity of heterocyclic inhibitors of CYP2A6 and CYP2A13, two cytochrome P450 enzymes present in the respiratory tract. Chembiochem. 2009 Jun 15;10(9):1562-7.

These compounds were tested as inhibitors of CYP2A6 and CYP2A13--two cytochrome P450 enzymes present in the respiratory tract--with a view to preventing the formation of carcinogenic metabolites of nicotine and inhibiting the metabolism of fragrances. 1-Substituted imidazoles bearing short alkyl chains displayed IC (50) values of around 2 microM for both enzymes, together with high vapour pressures.

Although the human lung cytochrome P450 2A13 (CYP2A13) and its liver counterpart cytochrome P450 2A6 (CYP2A6) are 94% identical in amino acid sequence, they metabolize a number of substrates with substantially different efficiencies.
To determine differences in binding for a diverse set of cytochrome P450 2A ligands, we have measured the spectral binding affinities (K (D)) for nicotine, phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC), coumarin, 2'-methoxyacetophenone (MAP), and 8-methoxypsoralen.

The psychoactive compound responsible for tobacco addiction, nicotine and the potent carcinogens present at high concentrations either in cigarette mainstream smoke or in smokeless tobacco products, 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-butanone (NNK) and N-nitrosonornicotine (NNN) can be metabolized by CYP2A6.
The overlapping substrate specificity and tissue expression between CYP2A6 and the highly similar CYP2A13 may add to the conflicting results observed.

CYP2A5, a mouse cytochrome P450 monooxygenase that shows high similarities to human CYP2A6 and CYP2A13 in protein sequence and substrate specificity, is expressed in multiple tissues, including the liver, kidney, lung, and nasal mucosa.
