113Cd nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy has been used to investigate the metal binding sites of cadmium-substituted copper, zinc-containing superoxide dismutase from baker's yeast. NMR signals were obtained for 113Cd(II) at the Cu site as well as for 113Cd(II) at the Zn site. The two subunits in the dimeric enzyme were found to have identical coordination properties towards 113Cd(II) at the Zn site when no copper is coordinated at the Cu site, and when Cu(I) or Cd(II) is coordinated, were found to be very small indicating that 113Cd(II) must be bound to the same number and type of ligands in both cases. Furthermore, the spectra show that the rate of exchange of protein-bound 113Cd(II) and free 113Cd2+ is slow on the NMR time scale also at the Cu site. The present study suggests an explanation for the discrepancy in the literature regarding 113Cd-NMR investigations of bovine superoxide dismutase. 相似文献

The zinc-free derivative of bovine erythrocuprein, Cu2E2BE, was prepared and its superoxide dismutase activity was measured and compared with that of the holoprotein, Cu2Zn2BE. The dismutase activity of these proteins was measured by quantitating their inhibition of the superoxide-mediated autooxidation of 6-hydroxydopamine, dihydroxyfumaric acid, pyrogallol, and epinephrine. It was found that the superoxide dismutase activity of the zinc-free protein is pH dependent, ranging between 82 ± 5% (relative to Cu2Zn2BE) at pH 5.8, and 25 ± 10% at pH 10.2. The overlapping range of assays and buffers verified that these measurements are independent of the method of assay, buffer, and ionic strength (in the range of μ = 0.10 to 0.20). The variation in activity with pH is probably due, at least in part, to the migration of Cu(II) at high pH as described previously [J.S. Valentine, M.W. Pantoliano, P.J. McDonnell, A.R. Burger, and S.J. Lippard, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 76, 4245 (1979)], since Cu(II) bound at the zinc binding site has been shown to have little or no dismutase activity. The observation of high activity (82%) for the zinc-free protein at pH 5.8, where Cu(II) is predominantly in the native Cu binding site, and less susceptible to removal by ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, demonstrates that the presence of Zn(II) in Cu2Zn2BE does not greatly enhance the inherent dismutase activity of Cu(II) in the holoprotein. 相似文献

We have utilized a commercially available, computer-driven stopped-flow spectrophotometer to rapidly measure the self-dismutation or catalyzed decay of superoxide in aqueous buffers. In the self-dismutation assay, a dimethyl sulfoxide solution of superoxide is mixed in less than 2 ms with an aqueous buffer. The decay of superoxide is monitored directly by its absorbance at 245 nm and the data is processed by computer. By careful purification of the water and the use of metal-free buffers, a decay of superoxide that fits second-order kinetics is obtained without using metal ion chelators in the buffer. The second-order rate constant for superoxide decreased with increasing pH and decreased by a factor of 3.3 by using D2O in place of H2O in the buffer. The rapid mixing time makes it possible to determine rate constants for active superoxide dismutase catalysts at a pH as low as 7. A first-order decay of superoxide is obtained when the aqueous buffer contains bovine Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase or aquo copper(II), which are known catalysts of superoxide dismutation. The rate of superoxide decay was established to be first-order in catalyst. The catalytic rate constant for bovine Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase was determined to be 2.3 x 10(9) M-1 s-1 in H2O and D2O-based buffers and was independent of pH over the range 7-9. Aquo copper(II) gave a catalytic rate constant of 1.2 x 10(8) M-1 s-1, but was ineffective in the presence of EDTA. The catalytic rate constants obtained by stopped-flow kinetics are in excellent agreement with studies carried out by the direct method of pulse radiolysis. 相似文献

1. The reactivity of the zinc site of bovine superoxide dismutase has been probed by observing optical and electron paramagnetic resonance changes, under several conditions, of the Co(II)-substituted protein. 2. Only in the absence of copper are the optical and electron paramagnetic resonance spectra of the cobalt chromophore appreciably affected by alkaline pH or by cyanide. With both reagents the reaction with the copper-containing protein appears to involve the water molecule bound to the copper and does not affect the magnetic coupling between copper and cobalt. 3. The reaction of cyanide with the copper-free Co(II) protein leads to a slow detachment of cobalt from the protein as pentacyanocobalt. An oxygen adduct forms in air, analogous to that described in Co(II) carbonic anhydrase (Haffner, P. H. and Coleman, J. E. (1975) J. Biol. Chem. 250, 996--1005.) 4. Acid titration modifies the Co(II) spectra in the same way in the Cu-containing and in the Cu-free protein and brings about uncoupling of the Co(II)--Cu(II) system. Protonation of histidine-61 on the zinc facing nitrogen is suggested. 5. H2O2 modifies the cobalt chromophore only in the presence of copper. Magnetic coupling between Cu(II) and Co(II) seems to be still present after H2O2 inactivation of the enzyme. 相似文献

The x-ray absorption for copper and zinc in oxidized and reduced superoxide dismutase, as well as in various model compounds, was studied. Upon reduction of the protein, the added electron affects the copper site almost exclusively, while the zinc remains virtually unchanged. Reduction decreases the charge on the copper atom [toward Cu(I)] and changes the configuration of the copper site so that it becomes less symmetric. An analysis of the copper absorption observed with the oxidized enzyme and a comparison with that for Cu(II)(imid)4 suggests that the copper is not simply ligated to four imidazoles. The addition of H2O2 to superoxide dismutase reduces the copper to Cu(I), while oxygen addition to the peroxide-reduced protein restores the copper to Cu(II). 相似文献

Peroxynitrite (ONOO-), the reaction product of superoxide (O2-) and nitric oxide (NO), may be a major cytotoxic agent produced during inflammation, sepsis, and ischemia/reperfusion. Bovine Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase reacted with peroxynitrite to form a stable yellow protein-bound adduct identified as nitrotyrosine. The uv-visible spectrum of the peroxynitrite-modified superoxide dismutase was highly pH dependent, exhibiting a peak at 438 nm at alkaline pH that shifts to 356 nm at acidic pH. An equivalent uv-visible spectrum was obtained by Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase treated with tetranitromethane. The Raman spectrum of authentic nitrotyrosine was contained in the spectrum of peroxynitrite-modified Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase. The reaction was specific for peroxynitrite because no significant amounts of nitrotyrosine were formed with nitric oxide (NO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), nitrite (NO2-), or nitrate (NO3-). Removal of the copper from the Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase prevented formation of nitrotyrosine by peroxynitrite. The mechanism appears to involve peroxynitrite initially reacting with the active site copper to form an intermediate with the reactivity of nitronium ion (NO2+), which then nitrates tyrosine on a second molecule of superoxide dismutase. In the absence of exogenous phenolics, the rate of nitration of tyrosine followed second-order kinetics with respect to Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase concentration, proceeding at a rate of 1.0 +/- 0.1 M-1.s-1. Peroxynitrite-mediated nitration of tyrosine was also observed with the Mn and Fe superoxide dismutases as well as other copper-containing proteins. 相似文献

The four binding constants of zinc(II) ions to apo-bovine superoxide dismutase were measured by the method of equilibrium dialysis. The binding constants (10(11.1)-10(10.9) M-1) of zinc ions to the native zinc sites were much larger than those to the native copper sites (10(7.8)-10(6.5) M-1) at pH 6.25. The competitive reaction between copper(II) and zinc(II) ions for the native copper sites of copper free bovine superoxide dismutase was also investigated. The native copper sites of bovine superoxide dismutase selectively react with copper ions, because the binding constants of copper ions for the native copper sites were much larger (10(6) times) than those of zinc ions. 相似文献

The superoxide dismutases (EC 1.15.1.1) are a family of enzymes that catalyze the dismutation of superoxide radical anion to dioxygen and hydrogen peroxide. The active site contains a critical metal ion such as manganese, iron, or copper. The copper-containing protein also has one zinc ion bound per subunit. The standard method used to remove the metal ions from Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase has been to exhaustively dialyze the protein against chelating agents at low pH. We have developed a new method where the protein is bound to ion-exchange medium based on iminodiacetic acid immobilized on Sepharose. The bound protein is treated with a buffer containing edta at pH 3.5 to remove metal ions; the buffer is then exchanged for acetate buffer to remove edta, after which the protein is eluted by a salt gradient. An advantage of this method is that a single chromatography step is sufficient to produce apo protein. Results are shown for both human and bovine dimeric Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase and the monomeric Escherichia coli Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase. In every case, the metals were removed efficiently. 相似文献

By using the technique of pulse radiolysis to generate O2-., it is demonstrated that Co(II) derivatives of bovine superoxide dismutase in which the copper alone and both the copper and zinc of the enzyme have been substituted by Co(II), resulting in (Co,Zn)- and (Co,Co)-proteins, are capable of catalytically dismutating O2-. with 'turnover' rate constants of 4.8 X 10(6) dm3.s-1.mol-1 and 3.1 X 10(6) dm3.s-1.mol-1 respectively. The activities of the proteins are independent of the pH (7.4-9.4) and are about three orders of magnitude less than that of the native (Cu,Zn)-protein. The rate constants for the initial interaction of O2-. with the Co-proteins were determined to be (1.5-1.6) X 10(9) dm3.s-1.mol-1; however, in the presence of phosphate, partial inhibition is apparent [k approximately (1.9-2.3) X 10(8) dm3.s-1.mol-1]. To account for the experimental observations, two reaction schemes are presented, involving initially either complex-formation or redox reactions between O2-. and Co(II). This is the first demonstration that substitution of a metal into the vacant copper site of (Cu,Zn)-protein results in proteins that retain superoxide dismutase activity. 相似文献

The superoxide dismutase (SOD) mimetic reactivity of Cu(II)EDTA was studied in the pH range of 6.0 to 8.0. Cu(II)EDTA disproportionated superoxide without inhibiting superoxide production by xanthine oxidase, as a result of bonding sites becoming available on the copper complex with increasing acidity. This disproportionation by Cu(II)EDTA is offered as evidence that the addition of EDTA to biological preparations for the purpose of complexing copper and thereby inhibiting copper-dependent superoxide disproportionation and promoting superoxide-dependent reactions is not a valid practice. 相似文献

Three cobalt derivatives of bovine erythrocyte superoxide dismutase (superoxide:superoxide oxidoreductase, EC 1.15.1.1) have been prepared under different pH conditions using a cobalt-thiocyanate complex which has already proved to yield specific substitutions on other copper proteins. The cobalt-protein derivatives have been characterized by optical, circular dichroism and fluorescence spectroscopies. One derivative, referred to as Co2Co2-protein, contains Co(II) ions specifically bound at both Zn(II) and Cu(II) sites. On the basis of their spectroscopic properties, the other two derivatives can be referred as E2Co2- and Co2E2-superoxide dismutase, with cobalt substituting, respectively, at the zinc and the copper sites leaving the contiguous site empty (E). The Co2E2-protein complex represents a novel derivative, since it has never been described in literature. The optical spectrum in the visible region of Co2-Co2-protein well corresponds to the sum of the spectra of the other two derivatives. The circular dichroism spectrum of Co2Co2-derivative, however, is not the sum of individual E2Co2- and Co2E2-proteins, suggesting that the presence of Co(II) in one site strongly affects the geometry of the neighbouring site. Some discrepancies between our spectroscopic data and those reported in literature are discussed. The results obtained from fluorescence experiments indicate that Co(II) ions exert a different quenching effect on the tyrosine emission, depending on whether they are located in the Zn(II) or in the Cu(II) site. The fluorescence quenching can be attributed to a 'heavy atom' and 'paramagnetic ion' effect by Co(II) ions. 相似文献

The superoxide anion radical is a highly reactive toxic species produced during the metabolic processes. A number of copper (II) complexes with amino acids and peptides are known to show superoxide dismutase (SOD) like activity. The design and application of synthetic low molecular weight metal complexes as SOD mimics have received considerable attention during the last decade. A variety of di- and tri-peptides containing histidyl residue in different positions have been employed to bind Cu(II) and to show the activity. But reports on Cu(II) complex with tetra-peptide having histidine amino acid in this regard are limited. As the HGGGW peptide having His at its N-terminal is reported to be a potential moiety for Cu(2+) binding, in the present work the synthesis of HisGlyGlyTrp peptide and its complexation with copper (II) ions has been reported. The interaction of synthesized peptide with Cu(II) was studied by electron spray ionization-mass spectrometer (ESI-MS) and UV-Vis spectroscopic methods. The species distribution was studied by combined spectrophotometric and potentiometric methods. The studies were performed at 25 ± 0.1 °C with constant ionic strength (μ = 0.1 M NaNO(3)) in aqueous solution using Bjerrum-Calvin's pH-titration technique as adopted by Irving and Rossotti for binary systems. The solution studies suggested that the pH of the medium play important role in the different species formation of the copper complexes. Species distribution curves indicate that Cu complexation takes place at all physiological pH values from 3-11. The resultant copper (II) peptide complex at physiological pH was tested for superoxide dismutase activity using standard NBT method. The complex has SOD activity with the IC(50) value of 1.32 μM. 相似文献

Diethyldithiocarbamate reacted with superoxide dismutase from bovine erythrocytes. Changes in both optical and esr spectra, which accompanied this reaction, indicated involvement of the Cu(II). The reaction was accelerated by raising the concentrations of the reactants, elevating the temperature, and lowering the pH, in the range 10.2 to 5.5, and it was independent of the presence of oxygen. During the first phase of this reaction the Cu(II).diethyldithiocarbamate complex remained bound to the enzyme and the catalytic activity did not diminish. There followed a second and slower process which was accompanied by the appearance of colloidal Cu(II).chelate complex and by a loss of activity which could be restored by the addition of CuSO4. All of the observations are accomodated by a model in which 1 diethyldithiocarbamate molecule reacts/copper center, with retention of activity, in Phase I, while a second diethyldithiocarbamate displaces the copper, with a loss of activity, in Phase II. 相似文献

Incubation of Cu--Zn superoxide dismutase with diethyldithiocarbamate at increasing ligand/protein ratios and subsequent high-speed centrifugation led to proportional removal of copper from the protein, at variance with previous results [Misra (1979) J. Biol. Chem. 254, 11623--11628]. No zinc was lost, even at very high excesses of chelating agent. In this way a copper-free protein could be readily prepared, with avoidance of the critical pH condition and the dialysis step required in a previous method employing cyanide. The holoprotein was fully reconstituted from the copper-free protein by stoicheiometric re-addition of copper. From the mixture of metal-depleted forms originated by treatment with slight diethyldithiocarbamate excess, the protein containing copper only on one subunit, [Cu1--Zn2], could be isolated by preparative column electrophoresis. This species reproducibly showed 25% more specific activity (catalytic constant per copper) than that of the native or reconstituted [Cu2--Zn2] protein. This may result from long-range conformational effects between the active sites. By adding Co2+ ions to the vacant copper site of [Cu1--Zn2] a hybrid molecule containing Cu(II) on one subunit and Co(II) in the homologous site of the other subunit was prepared. Its activity, referred to copper, was identical with that of the native protein. 相似文献

The superoxide dismutase-like activities of a series of coordination complexes of copper were evaluated and compared to the activities of bovine erythrocyte superoxide dismutase (superoxide: superoxide oxidoreductase, EC 1.15.1.1) in serum using the nitroblue tetrazolium chloride (NBT)-reduction assay and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. A 40% inhibition was observed for the initial rate of the NBT reduction by superoxide dismutase in serum, but more than 40% inhibition was achieved with CuSO4, Cu(II)-dimethylglyoxime, Cu(II)-3,8-dimethyl-4,7-diazadeca-3,7-dienediamide, Cu2[N,N'-(2-(O-hydroxy-benzhydrylidene)amino)ethyl]2-1,2-ethane dia mine), Cu(II)-(diisopropylsalicylate)2, Cu(II)-(p-bromo-benzoate)2, Cu(II)-(nicotinate)2 and Cu(II)-(1,2-diamino-2-methylpropane)2. The electron paramagnetic resonance technique of spin trapping was used to detect the formation of superoxide (O2-.) and other free radicals in the xanthine-xanthine oxidase system under a variety of conditions. Addition of the spin trapping agent 5,5-dimethylpyrroline 1-oxide (DMPO) to the xanthine-xanthine oxidase system in fetal bovine serum produced the O2-.-spin adduct of DMPO (herein referred to as superoxide spin adduct, DMPO-OOH) as the well known short-lived nitroxyl whose characteristic EPR spectrum was recorded before its rapid decay to undetectable levels. The hydroxyl radical (HO.) adduct of the spin trap DMPO (herein referred to as DMPO-OH) was detected to a very small extent. When CuSO4, or the test complexes of copper, were added to the xanthine-xanthine oxidase system in serum containing the spin trap, the yield of DMPO-OOH was negligible. In addition to their superoxide dismutase-like activity, CuSO4 and the copper complexes also behaved as Fenton-type catalysts as seen by the accumulation of varying amounts of the hydroxyl spin adduct DMPO-OH. Both the Fenton-type catalysis and the superoxide dismutase-like action of these compounds were lost when a chelator such as EDTA was included in the xanthine-xanthine oxidase incubation mixture. Addition of superoxide dismutase instead of the copper compounds to this enzyme system abolished the formation of superoxide adduct DMPO-OOH, and no hydroxyl adduct DMPO-OH was detected. This effect of superoxide dismutase remained unaltered by EDTA. 相似文献

In this paper are presented the features of copper (II) and zinc (II) heteronuclear complexes of the cyclic peptide—c(HKHGPG)2. The coordination properties of ligand were studied by potentiometric, UV–Vis and CD spectroscopic methods. These experiments were carried out in aqueous solutions at 298 K depending on pH. It turned out that in a physiological pH dominates Cu(II)/Zn(II) complex ([CuZnL]4+) which could mimic the active center of superoxide dismutase (Cu,ZnSOD). In next step we performed in vitro research on Cu,ZnSOD activity for [CuZnL]4+ complex existing in 7.4 pH by the method of reduction of nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT). Also mono- and di-nuclear copper (II) complexes of this ligand were examined. The ability of inhibition free radical reaction were compared for all complexes. The results of these studies show that Cu(II) mono-, di-nuclear and Cu(II)/Zn(II) complexes becoming to new promising synthetic superoxide dismutase mimetics, and should be considered for further biological assays. 相似文献

The thermal denaturation profile of the Cu2+, Zn2+ metalloenzyme, bovine superoxide dismutase, consists of two primary components, the major component denatures irreversibly at Tm = 104 degrees C with a total enthalpy (delta Hcal) of 7.30 cal/g. Reduction of Cu(II) to Cu(I) with potassium ferrocyanide lowers Tm to 96 degrees C and delta Hcal to 6.96 cal/g. The apo-form of bovine superoxide dismutase (both Cu and Zn removed) denatures at 60 degrees C with an enthalpy only one-half that of the holo-form. The reduced thermal stability, which indicates a greater ability to change conformation, may explain the previously observed much greater membrane binding of the apo-enzyme. Reconstitution with Zn2+, Cu2+, or Zn2+ and Cu2+ raises Tm to 80, 89, or 102 degrees C, respectively, with corresponding increases in the enthalpy. Thus, the metal ions considerably stabilize the enzyme and must somewhat affect conformation. The effect of Cu2+ alone is greater than that of Zn2+, although both are needed for full stability. Raman spectroscopy indicates little difference in secondary structure between the apo- and holo-forms, implying that the increased stability due to metal binding is not caused by an extreme structural reorganization. The value of Tm of canine and yeast superoxide dismutase is also lowered by reduction of Cu(II). The reduced form of the yeast enzyme denatures irreversibly, as do all forms of the bovine and canine enzymes, but the oxidized form is unique in that it denatures reversibly. Thus, the copper ion must be oxidized for renaturation and appears to act as a nucleation site. 相似文献

Silver-copper and silver-cobalt proteins have been prepared in which Ag+ resides in the native copper site of superoxide dismutase and either Cu2+ of Co2+ reside in the zinc site. The electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectrum of the copper and the visible absorption spectrum of the cobalt greatly resemble those of either Cu4 of Cu2,Cu2,Co2 proteins, respectively, in which the copper of the native copper sites has been reduced. It was found that, unlike cyanide, azide anion would not perturb the EPR spectrum of Ag2,Cu2 protein. Since azide produces the same perturbation upon the EPR spectrum of native and Cu2 proteins, it must bind to the copper and not the zinc of superoxide dismutase. A model of the metal sites of the enzyme has been fitted to a 3-A electron-density map using an interactive molecular graphics display. The model shows that histidine-61, which appears to bind both copper and zinc, does not lie in the plane of the copper and its three other histidine ligands, but occupies a position intermediate between planar and axial. This feature probably accounts for the rhombicity of the EPR spectrum and the activity of the enzyme. 相似文献

The reaction of the Cu,Co derivative of bovine Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase with phenylglyoxal or butanedione, which are known to inactivate the enzyme by selectively binding to Arg 141, has been studied by 1H NMR. Several 1H NMR lines of the copper-liganding histidine residues were perturbed, reproducing an effect so far observed only in the case of binding of anions to this protein. The room temperature EPR spectrum of the modified Cu,Zn protein was altered very slightly, indicating that the geometry of the copper site was not grossly affected by the modification. NMR and EPR changes were reversed by dialysis in the case of the reversible butanedione adduct. These data show that the coordination of the copper in Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase can be destabilized by modifications occurring at a neighboring but not a metal-liganding residue. It is suggested that part of the NMR effects seen on copper ligands in the case of anion binding are produced by interaction of anions with Arg 141, rather than by direct ligand replacement. 相似文献

Proton nuclear-relaxation rates have been measured as a function of frequency, temperature, pH and cyanide concentration in aqueous solutions of superoxide dismutase from bovine erythrocytes. The results show that, whereas for pH less than or equal to 9 only one water molecule is bound to each Cu2+ ion, at higher pH a second co-ordination site for OH- becomes available; it is proposed that this involves cleavage of the bond between Cu2+ and the histidine residue that bridges to Zn2+. 相似文献
