Although polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were commercially banned half a century ago, contamination of the environment and organisms by PCBs is still observed. PCBs show high persistence and bioaccumulation, resulting in toxicity. Among PCBs, chiral PCBs with more than three chlorine atoms at the ortho-position exhibit developmental and neurodevelopmental toxicity. Because toxicity is dependent on the atropisomer, atropisomer-specific metabolism is vital in determining toxicity. However, structural information on enantioselective metabolism remains elusive. Cytochrome P450 (CYP, P450) monooxygenases, particularly human CYP2B6 and rat CYP2B1, metabolize separated atropisomers of 2,2',3,6-tetrachlorobiphenyl (CB45) and 2,2',3,4',6-pentachlorobiphenyl (CB91) to dechlorinated and hydroxylated metabolites. Docking studies using human CYP2B6 predict 4'-hydroxy (OH)-CB45 from (aR)-CB45 as a major metabolite of CB45. Di-OH- and dechlorinated OH-metabolites from human CYP2B6 and rat CYP2B1 are also detected. Several hydroxylated metabolites are derived from CB91 by both P450s; 5-OH-CB91 is predicted as a major metabolite. CB91 dechlorination is also detected by identifying 3-OH-CB51. A stable conformation of PCBs in the substrate-binding cavity and close distance to P450 heme are responsible for high metabolizing activities. As hydroxylation and dechlorination change PCB toxicity, this approach helps understand the possible toxicity of chiral PCBs in mammals.
