High quality surface-enhanced resonance Raman (SERR) spectra were recorded from native and denatured phycocyanin and allophycocyanin on ascorbic acid treated silver hydrosols. The visible-excited SERR and resonance Raman (RR) spectra of the phycobiliproteins were very similar, indicating a predominantly electromagnetic surface enhancement mechanism. Investigation of pH-induced denaturation ofx allophycocyanin has shown that even small differences in protein/chromophore conformational are sensitively reflected by the SERR spectra. Concerning the adsorption of the protein to the metal surface, the experiments have shown that: (i) there is limited possibility for changing protein conformation during the adsorption process, (ii) there are no changes after the protein has been adsorbed onto the silver surface and (iii) for each protein an optimal activation of the silver sol has to be found for recording proper SERR spectra. The results obtained on phycobiliproteins are also discussed in connection with the interpretation of phytochrome Raman spectra.  相似文献

Resonance Raman detection of bound dioxygen in cytochrome P-450cam   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
We have used resonance Raman spectroscopy and isotopic labeling techniques to unambiguously assign the dioxygen stretching frequency (vo-o) in the substrate-bound oxygenated complex of cytochrome P-450cam. The frequency found for Vo-o in the P-450cam system (1140 cm-1) is in remarkable agreement with recent studies of thiolate heme model compounds. The general features of the oxy-P-450cam Raman spectra are tabulated and comparisons are made with the oxy complexes of hemoglobin, myoglobin, and various model compounds. Most of the results are qualitatively explained by consideration of electron donation into the pi g (O2)/d pi (M) orbitals of the oxygenated complex (M = Fe or Co). It is also noted that the effect of the "extra" electron in the nitrogen base Co(II) oxy complexes, in some ways, parallels the effect of the lone pair electrons of thiolate in the oxy-P-450cam complex. This is evidenced by the enhanced resonance Raman activity of vo-o in both the Co(II) and P-450 systems as well as by the similarity of the vo-o frequencies.  相似文献

The isozymes 2 and 4 of rabbit microsomal cytochrome P-450 (LM2, LM4) have been studied by resonance Raman spectroscopy. Based on high quality spectra, a vibrational assignment of the porphyrin modes in the frequency range between 100-1700 cm-1 is presented for different ferric states of cytochrome P-450 LM2 and LM4. The resonance Raman spectra are interpreted in terms of the spin and ligation state of the heme iron and of heme-protein interactions. While in cytochrome P-450 LM2 the six-coordinated low-spin configuration is predominantly occupied, in the isozyme LM4 the five-coordinated high-spin form is the most stable state. The different stability of these two spin configurations in LM2 and LM4 can be attributed to the structures of the active sites. In the low-spin form of the isozymes LM4 the protein matrix forces the heme into a more rigid conformation than in LM2. These steric constraints are removed upon dissociation of the sixth ligand leading to a more flexible structure of the active site in the high-spin form of the isozyme LM4. The vibrational modes of the vinyl groups were found to be characteristic markers for the specific structures of the heme pockets in both isozymes. They also respond sensitively to type-I substrate binding. While in cytochrome P-450 LM4 the occupation of the substrate-binding pocket induces conformational changes of the vinyl groups, as reflected by frequency shifts of the vinyl modes, in the LM2 isozyme the ground-state conformation of these substituents remain unaffected, suggesting that the more flexible heme pocket can accommodate substrates without imposing steric constraints on the porphyrin. The resonance Raman technique makes structural changes visible which are induced by substrate binding in addition and independent of the changes associated with the shift of the spin state equilibrium: the high-spin states in the substrate-bound and substrate-free enzyme are structurally different. The formation of the inactive form, P-420, involves a severe structural rearrangement in the heme binding pocket leading to drastic changes of the vinyl group conformations. The conformational differences of the active sites in cytochromes P-450 LM2 and LM4 observed in this work contribute to the understanding of the structural basis accounting for substrate and product specificity of cytochrome P-450 isozymes.  相似文献

Surface enhanced resonance Raman scattering (SERRS) was observed from structurally related drug-induced rat liver cytochromes P-450 adsorbed on a silver colloid. Careful control of pH and the sequence of addition of components to the so1 is required to prevent protein denaturation at the surface due to conversion to P-450's biologically inactive form P-420 or haem loss. A low-spin P-450 (PB3a), a mixed low- and high-spin P-450 (PB3b) and a predominantly high-spin P-450 (MC1a) were investigated. Spectra recorded in the 1300-1700 cm-1 frequency region, containing the oxidation state marker v4 at 1375 cm-1 (Fe3+) and spin state markers v10 (1625 cm-1, high-spin; 1633 cm-1, low-spin) and v19 (1575 cm-1, high-spin; 1585 cm-1, low-spin) were used to differentiate between the spin states of the various forms of cytochrome P-450. As well as the established spin state marker bands, the intensity of a band at 1400 cm-1 appeared to depend on the high-spin content. Thus, with this method SERRS from silver colloids can be used to determine spin states of related cytochromes P-450 in dilute solution (10(-8)M) and may be of value in studies of protein-substrate interactions.  相似文献

Iron K-edge X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) spectra were measured for oxy-forms of cytochrome P-450cam (P-450cam), horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and myoglobin (Mb) by using Synchrotoron Radiation of Photon Factory (Tsukuba). A pronounced 1s-4p transition and some fine structures were well-resolved in the spectra obtained. Comparing the spectra, the features at the fine structures termed P, C and D, were similar among the three hemoproteins, suggesting a similar site-symmetry around the heme iron and the same Fe-O-O bond angle (about 115 degrees). On the other hand, absorption features at the edge region (7115-7135 eV) were slightly but significantly different from one another; the absorption intensity at 7115-7125 eV region increased in the order of Mb, HRP and P-450cam, while that at 7125-7135 eV decreased in the same order. A similar absorption feature was also obtained with their deoxy (ferrous high spin) forms. We assumed that the absorption at the lower energy region (7115-7125 eV) reflects the pi-character in the Fe-ligand bond, whereas that at the higher energy region (7125-7135 eV) does the sigma-character, on the basis of the previous and comprehensive studies of the XANES spectroscopy of the adsorbed molecules on the metal surface (McGovern et al. (1989) Handbook on Synchrotoron Radiation, Vol. 2, pp. 467-539). According to our assumption, our XANES results indicated that the pi-character of the Fe-ligand bond increases in the order of Mb, HRP and P-450cam, and that the pi-electron of the thiolate S- in P-450cam is donated to the Fe-O-O moiety, most probably to the antibonding pi* orbital of O2. Such an interpretation is consistent with the experimental findings or data accumulated so far by other methods, such as the resonance Raman spectroscopy.  相似文献

Resonance Raman spectra were observed for the threonine-301 to serine or valine mutant as well as the wild type of rabbit liver microsomal cytochrome P-450 [laurate(omega-1)-hydroxylase] (P-450(omega-1], which were prepared through site-directed mutagenesis. The high-spin marker resonance Raman (RR) bands became similarly stronger for all the P-450s examined in the oxidized form upon addition of laurate, and the RR spectra in the higher frequency region of the oxidized, reduced and CO-adduct forms did not distinctly differ among the P-450s examined. Nevertheless, the Fe-CO stretching mode (vFe-CO) of the CO adduct exhibited an upshift for the valine mutant, suggesting positional proximity of Thr-301 to bound CO like Thr-252 of P-450cam, in agreement with the expectation from the sequence analysis. The vFe-CO band was shifted to higher frequency upon binding of normal alkyl fatty acids with C10 or longer alkyl chain but little affected by binding of shorter fatty acids.  相似文献

An extensive series of ligand complexes of ferric cytochrome P-450-CAM has been examined by UV-visible absorption, magnetic circular dichroism, and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy in an attempt to identify the ligand trans to cysteinate in the six-coordinate resting state of the enzyme. Thus, the ligands used have been chosen to serve as models for coordination by potential endogenous amino acids and include alcohol, amide and carboxylate oxygen donors, amine, imidazole and indole nitrogen donors and disulfide, thioether, thiol, and thiolate sulfur donors. As this investigation has been by nature an empirical one, the conclusions are strengthened by the concurrent use of three different spectroscopic techniques. All of the complexes formed except those resulting from thiolate addition display spectroscopic properties that are broadly similar to those of low spin, six-coordinate P-450. Of the sulfur donor adducts, disulfide and thioether-bound P-450 have properties that are different enough in detail to distinguish them from native P-450. While the spectral features of the thiol-bound species and of low spin ferric P-450 are alike, the former are pH dependent due to interconversion to bound thiolate, whereas the latter display essentially no spectral changes with pH. Of the oxygen donor complexes, all but carboxylate have spectra that very closely match those of the resting enzyme. Adducts formed with most nitrogenous ligands, including several imidazole derivatives, exhibit spectra that are sufficiently different from native P-450 to exclude them as candidates for the sixth ligand. Interestingly, the spectral properties of a complex formed with an imidazole derivative having a bulky electron-withdrawing substituent in the alpha position are comparable to those native P-450 except for the line shape of the EPR spectrum. Previously published theoretical work suggests that the spectral differences seen between this imidazole derivative and the other examined are electronic and not steric in origin. As no similar electronic mechanism exists for the protein to reduce the electron-donating ability or histidine, it is felt that coordination of histidine in the sixth position of P-450 can be ruled out. In conclusion, close examination of all spectral data reveals that amino acid analog adducts of P-450-CAM with amides and, in particular, alcohols, produce spectra that almost exactly duplicate those of native P-450 and suggests that the ligand trans to cysteinate in the six-coordinate ferric enzyme has an oxygen donor atom.  相似文献

Cobalt-substituted cytochrome P-450cam   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Reconstitution of the apo-cytochrome with cobalt protoporphyrin provides a faithful P-450cam analogue as characterized by optical, ligand-binding, and enzymatic parameters. The thiol and cyanide complexes exhibit Soret "hyper" spectra, not previously observed in cobalt porphyrins. Substrate-induced spectral changes and limited stereospecific hydroxylation activity are retained in the cobalt P-450cam. The EPR (electron paramagnetic resonance) spectra of the reduced cobaltous protein indicate clearly an endogenous axial ligand other than a nitrogenous base and support an assignment of thiolate coordination. A thiolate ligand is also indicated by EPR measurements in the oxygenated cobaltous analogue. By analogy, these studies suggest that the native ferrous and oxygenated P-450cam states retain a thiolate axial ligand.  相似文献

Resonance Raman spectra of cytochrome P-450cam (P-450cam) and its enzymatically inactive form (P-420) in various oxidation and spin states were measured for the first time. The Raman spectrum of reduced P-450cam was unusual in the sense that the "oxidation-state marker" appeared at an unexpectedly lower frequency (1346 cm-1) in comparison with those of other reduced hemoproteins (approximately 1355-approximately 1365 cm-1), whereas that of oxidized P-450cam was located at a normal frequency. This anomaly in the Raman spectrum of reduced P-450cam can be explained by assuming electron delocalization from the fifth ligand, presumably a thiolate anion, to the antibonding pi orbital of the porphyrin ring. The corresponding Raman line of reduced P-420 appeared at a normal frequency (1360 cm-1), suggesting a status change or replacement of the fifth ligand upon conversion from P-450cam to P-420. The Raman spectrum of reduced P-450cam-metyrapone complex was very similar to that of ferrous cytochrome b5.  相似文献

Comparative EPR studies were made on two high-spin Fe(III) porphine model systems and mammalian liver microsomal cytochromes P-450, all of which exhibit approximately the same degrees of rhombicity in their EPR spectra. Comparison of g values and linewidths as a function of temperature, and of the microwave power saturation demonstrated that EPR characteristics of P-450 are more similar to the Fe(III) porphines having the thiolate axial ligand than in the other model systems, the mixed crystals of Fe(III) porphine with the corresponding free base porphine, in which no thiolate ligand is involved. There is, however, a discrepancy between P-450 and the model thiolates with respect to the size of the zero-field parameter D. These observations indicate that P-450 heme has essential structural features in common with thiolates but the Fe-S bond of P-450 may be modified from its normal orientation in model thiolates, probably as a result of the constraints imposed by the protein structure.  相似文献

We report the joint resonance Raman (RR) and electron paramagnetic resonance (epr) study of five- and six-coordinate nitrosyl heme model compounds and of the titled nitrosyl hemoproteins. Both epr and RR spectra fall into two types which, in the models, correspond to five- and six-coordinate nitrosyl hemes. However, neither RR nor epr spectroscopy is highly sensitive to the nature of the bond between a nitrosyl heme and a coordinated nitrogenous base, nor do the results of one technique uniformly correlate with those of the other. It is not possible to use epr spectroscopy as a test for the coordination state of a nitrosyl heme. The position of the highest frequency (depolarized) RR band possibly provides such a test. Any breaking of the very weak bond between nitrosyl heme and proximal histidine in T state human HbNO is more a consequence of tertiary structural features unique to the human alphaNO chains than it is of properties of the T quaternary conformation.  相似文献

The effects of cholesterol and adrenodoxin binding on resonance Raman spectra of cytochrome P-450scc in both oxidized and CO-reduced states were examined. Upon cholesterol binding, oxidized cytochrome P-450scc showed a significant shift of spin equilibrium from low-spin to high-spin state. Addition of adrenodoxin caused a complete conversion of cholesterol-bound oxidized cytochrome P-450scc to a pure high-spin state that was considered to be in the hexacoordinated state judged by the v10 mode at 1620 cm-1 and v3 mode around 1485 cm-1. Cholesterol in substrate binding site may oppose a linear and perpendicular binding of carbon monoxide to the reduced heme iron, leading to the distorted Fe-C-O linkage. This is based on the following observations: (1) an increase of the Fe-CO stretching frequency to 483 from 477 cm-1 upon addition of cholesterol; (2) an enhanced photodissociability of bound carbon monoxide of CO complex of cytochrome P-450scc in the presence of cholesterol. As another aspect of the effect of cholesterol on the CO complex form of cytochrome P-450scc, the enhanced stability of the native form ("P-450" form) was observed. There was no additional effect of reduced adrenodoxin on the Raman spectra of the CO-reduced form of cytochrome P-450scc.  相似文献

Magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) spectra have been measured for cytochrome P-450 (P-450) purified from phenobarbital-induced rabbit liver microsomes. The temperature dependence of some of the MCD spectra has also been determined. The MCD spectrum of oxidized P-450 seems to suggest that it is in a state intermediate between the ferric low-spin states. Model experiments suggest that this anomaly arises from the coordination of a thiolate anion to the heme. Reduced P-450 shows a very peculiar MCD spectrum; the spectrum as well as its temperature dependence suggest that the heme in reduced P-450 is a "mixture" in terms of redox and/or spin states. The MCD spectrum of the CO complex of reduced P-450 exhibits an apparent Faraday A term around 450 nm which consists of about 50% C term and 50% the other terms, indicating that it is not in a purely ferrous low-spin state. The CO complex of reduced cytochrome P-420 (P-420), on the other hand, shows an MCD spectrum characteristic of a ferrous low-spin heme. It is suggested from model experiments that the thiolate anion coordinates to the heme trans to CO in the P-450-CO complex. The Soret region of the MCD spectrum of the EtNC complex of reduced P-450 is characterized by two apparent A terms around 430 and 455 nm, whereas that of the corresponding complex of P-420 has only one apparent A term around 434 nm.  相似文献

Cytochrome P-45011 beta was purified as the 11-deoxycorticosterone-bound form from bovine adrenocortical mitochondria and its active site was investigated by resonance Raman and EPR spectroscopies. Resonance Raman spectra of the purified sample revealed that the heme iron adopts the pure pentacoordinated ferric high-spin state on the basis of the nu 10 (1629cm-1) and nu 3 (1490 cm-1) mode frequencies, which are higher than those of the hexacoordinated ferric high-spin cytochrome P-450scc-substrate complexes. In the ferrous-CO state, a Fe2(+)-CO stretching mode was identified at 481.5 cm-1 on the basis of an isotopic substitution technique; this frequency is very close to that of cytochrome P-450scc in the cholesterol-complexed state (483 cm-1). The EPR spectra of the purified sample at 4.2 K showed ferric high-spin signals (at g = 7.98, 3.65, and 1.71) that were clearly distinct from the cytochrome P-450scc ferric high-spin signals (g = 8.06, 3.55, and 1.68) and confirmed previous assignments of ferric high-spin signals in adrenocortical mitochondria. The EPR spectra of the nitric oxide (NO) complex of ferrous cytochrome P-45011 beta showed EPR signals with rhombic symmetry (gx = 2.068, gz = 2.001, and gy = 1.961) very similar to those of the ferrous cytochrome P-450scc-NO complex in the presence of 22(S)-hydroxycholesterol and 20(R),22-(R)-dihydroxycholesterol at 77 K.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Diarylpropane oxygenase, an H2O2-dependent lignin-degrading enzyme from the basidiomycete fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium, catalyzes the oxygenation of various lignin model compounds with incorporation of a single atom of dioxygen (O2). Diarylpropane oxygenase is also capable of oxidizing some alcohols to aldehydes and/or ketones. This enzyme (Mr = 41,000) contains a single iron protoporphyrin IX prosthetic group. Previous studies revealed that the Soret maximum of the ferrous-CO complex of diarylpropane oxygenase is at approximately 420 nm, as in ferrous-CO myoglobin (Mb), and not like the approximately 450 nm absorption of the CO complex of the ubiquitous heme monooxygenase, cytochrome P-450. This spectral difference between two functionally similar heme enzymes is of interest. To elucidate the structural requirements for heme iron-based oxygenase reactions, we have compared the electronic absorption, EPR, and resonance Raman (RR) spectral properties of diarylpropane oxygenase with those of other heme proteins and enzymes of known axial ligation. The absorption spectra of native (ferric), cyano, and ferrous diarylpropane oxygenase closely resemble those of the analogous myoglobin complexes. The EPR g values of native diarylpropane oxygenase, 5.83 and 1.99, also agree well with those of aquometMb. The RR spectra of ferric diarylpropane oxygenase have their spin- and oxidation-state marker bands at frequencies analogous to those of aquometMb and indicate a high-spin, hexacoordinate ferric iron. The RR spectra of ferrous diarylpropane oxygenase have frequencies analogous to those of deoxy-Mb that suggest a high-spin, pentacoordinate Fe(II) in the reduced form. The RR spectra of both ferric and ferrous diarylpropane oxygenase are less similar to those of horseradish peroxidase, catalase, or cytochrome c peroxidase and are clearly distinct from those of P-450. These observations suggest that the fifth ligand to the heme iron of diarylpropane oxygenase is a neutral histidine and that the iron environment must resemble that of the oxygen transport protein, myoglobin, rather than that of the peroxidases, catalase, or P-450. Given the functional similarity between diarylpropane oxygenase and P-450, this work implies that the mechanism of oxygen insertion for the two systems is different.  相似文献

Interactions of cholesterol analogues and inhibitors with the heme moiety of cytochrome P-450scc were examined by resonance Raman spectroscopy. The Raman spectra of ferric cytochrome P-450scc complexed with inhibitors such as cyanide, phenyl isocyanide, aminoglutethimide, and metyrapone were characteristic of low-spin state and were very similar. However, the effect of exchange of the sixth ligand from the oxygen atom (ferric low-spin state) to the nitrogen atom upon aminoglutethimide and metyrapone binding was seen as down-frequency shifts of the v3 band from 1503 to 1501 and 1502 cm-1, respectively, while cyanide and phenyl isocyanide binding caused an up-frequency shift of the v3 band to 1505 cm-1. The effects of cholesterol analogues [22(R)-hydroxycholesterol, 22(S)-hydroxycholesterol, 22-ketocholesterol, 20(S)-hydroxycholesterol, and 25-hydroxycholesterol] on a Fe2+-CO stretching frequency of cytochrome P-450scc in ferrous CO form were examined. The 22(R)-hydroxycholesterol complex could not give a clear Fe2+-CO stretching Raman band due to a strong photodissociability. 22(S)-Hydroxycholesterol and 25-hydroxycholesterol complexes gave the Raman bands at 487 and 483 cm-1, respectively, whereas 20(S)-hydroxycholesterol and 22-ketocholesterol complexes gave Fe2+-CO stretching frequencies (478 cm-1) almost identical with that without substrate (477 cm-1). These findings suggest the existence of the following physiologically important natures of the cytochrome P-450scc active site: (1) there is a strong steric interaction between heme-bound carbon monoxide and the 22(R)-hydroxyl group or the 22(R)-hydrogen of the steroid side chain and (2) the hydroxylation at the 20S position may cause a conformational change of the side-chain group relative to the heme.  相似文献

Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy has been used to probe the active site of bacterial ferric cytochrome P-450CAM. The endogenous sixth ligand to the heme iron has been displaced by an extensive series of exogenous oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur and other neutral and anionic donor ligands in an attempt to examine systematically the steric and electronic factors that influence the coupling of the heme chromophore to its protein environment. General trends for each ligand class are reported and discussed. Both the wavelengths and the intensities of the CD bands vary with ligand type and structure. All but one of the complexes exhibit negative CD maxima in their delta and Soret bands. Comparison to ferric myoglobin-thiolate complexes indicates that the negative sign observed for the cytochrome P-450 spectra is not a property of the thiolate fifth ligand, but rather arises from a different interaction of the cytochrome P-450 heme with its protein environment. Complexes with neutral oxygen donors display CD spectra that most closely resemble the spectrum of the native low-spin enzyme. Hyperporphyrin (split Soret) cytochrome P-450 complexes with thiolates, phosphines and cyanide trans to cysteinate have complex CD spectra, reflecting the intrinsic non-degeneracy of the Soret pi pi transitions. The extensive work presented herein provides an empirical foundation for use in analyzing the interaction of heme chromophores with their protein surroundings, not only for the cytochrome P-450 monooxygenases but also for heme proteins in general.  相似文献

2,2,5,5-Tetramethyl-3-pyrrolin-1-yloxy-3-carboxamide (tempyo) labeled bovine serum albumin and cytochrome c at different pH values were prepared and investigated using Raman-resonance Raman (RR) spectroscopy and surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy. The Raman spectra of tempyo labeled proteins in the pH 6.7-11 range were compared to those of the corresponding free species. The SERS spectra were interpreted in terms of the structural changes of the tempyo labeled proteins adsorbed on the silver colloidal surface. The tempyo spin label was found to be inactive in the Raman-RR and SERS spectra of the proteins. The alpha-helix conformation was concluded to be more favorable as the SERS binding site of bovine serum albumin. In the cytochrome c the enhancement of the bands assigned to the porphyrin macrocycle stretching mode allowed the supposition of the N-adsorption onto the colloidal surface.  相似文献

The effects of protein-protein interactions and substrate binding on the structure of the active site of rabbit liver microsomal cytochrome P-450 LM2 have been analyzed by resonance Raman spectroscopy of the monomeric and oligomeric protein in solution. Also H2O2-dependent catalytic activities of the two states have been compared. The two vinyl substituents of the heme exhibit different orientations, as indicated by the frequencies and intensities of their stretching vibrations. One group lies in the plane of the heme and remains unchanged in the two states of cytochrome P-450 LM2, the other is tilted out of the plane. The tilting angle in oligomers was smaller than in monomers. These vinyl stretching modes together with some porphyrin modes, were found to be sensitive indicators of the quaternary structure and of substrate binding. In both the oligomer and the monomer, substrate binding causes changes of the relative intensities of some porphyrin modes and the vinyl stretching vibrations which may reflect modifications of the electronic transitions due to hydrophobic interactions between the bound substrate and the heme. In contrast to the monomeric cytochrome P-450 LM2, benzphetamine binding to the oligomers of this isozyme additionally produces a shift of the spin-state equilibrium. This indicates that in the oligomer the substrate-binding pocket is converted by protein-protein interaction to a structure that forces substrates to interfere with the sixth ligands, inducing an increase of the five-coordinated high-spin configuration. In the monomer the substrate-binding pocket can accommodate benzphetamine without affecting the spin state. Binding of imidazole to the monomeric and oligomeric cytochrome P-450 LM2 produces essentially the same resonance Raman spectra. Apparently the replacement of the native sixth ligand by imidazole disturbs the structure of the active site in such a way that it becomes insensitive to protein-protein interactions. H2O2-dependent N-demethylation of benzphetamine and aniline p-hydroxylation by cytochrome P-450 LM2 did not depend on its state of aggregation.  相似文献

Low-temperature (6-40 K) electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra of cytochrome P-450d (P-450d) and its 17 mutants have been measured. The spectra of the wild-type and all mutant P-450ds showed signals at around g = 8, 3.7 and 1.7, while they didn't show any signal at around g = 2 up to 40 K. It was thus suggested that all of these P-450ds essentially take the ferric high-spin form. The g values of the proximal mutants were closer to those of the wild-type than those of the distal and aromatic mutants, suggesting that mutations at the distal and aromatic sites influence the electronic state of the heme more profoundly than those of the proximal site. The distal multiple mutants whose distal sequences are the same as those of the low-spin type P-450s such as rat P-450c, mouse P1-450 and P3-450 showed only high-spin ESR signals. Thus the spin state of P-450ds (the wild-type and all mutants) may not be solely due to specific characteristics of the distal site, but to the unique nature of the whole heme environment of P-450d. It is also suggested that the amino acids at the distal region of P-450d may be located close to the heme, so that the water molecule cannot bind to the heme, thus taking the high-spin state. Both the aromatic mutants showed rather large deviations of the g values from those of wild-type P-450d, suggesting that the aromatic region somehow interacts with the heme.  相似文献
