Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is a major neutrophil protein and may be involved in the nitration of tyrosine residues observed in a wide range of inflammatory diseases that involve neutrophils and macrophage activation. In order to clarify if nitrite could be a physiological substrate of myeloperoxidase, we investigated the reactions of the ferric enzyme and its redox intermediates, compound I and compound II, with nitrite under pre-steady state conditions by using sequential mixing stopped-flow analysis in the pH range 4-8. At 15 degrees C the rate of formation of the low spin MPO-nitrite complex is (2.5 +/- 0.2) x 10(4) m(-1) s(-1) at pH 7 and (2.2 +/- 0.7) x 10(6) m(-1) s(-1) at pH 5. The dissociation constant of nitrite bound to the native enzyme is 2.3 +/- 0.1 mm at pH 7 and 31.3 +/- 0.5 micrometer at pH 5. Nitrite is oxidized by two one-electron steps in the MPO peroxidase cycle. The second-order rate constant of reduction of compound I to compound II at 15 degrees C is (2.0 +/- 0.2) x 10(6) m(-1) s(-1) at pH 7 and (1.1 +/- 0.2) x 10(7) m(-1) s(-1) at pH 5. The rate constant of reduction of compound II to the ferric native enzyme at 15 degrees C is (5.5 +/- 0.1) x 10(2) m(-1) s(-1) at pH 7 and (8.9 +/- 1.6) x 10(4) m(-1) s(-1) at pH 5. pH dependence studies suggest that both complex formation between the ferric enzyme and nitrite and nitrite oxidation by compounds I and II are controlled by a residue with a pK(a) of (4.3 +/- 0.3). Protonation of this group (which is most likely the distal histidine) is necessary for optimum nitrite binding and oxidation. 相似文献

The reaction of superoxide radical with catalase. Mechanism of the inhibition of catalase by superoxide radical 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
We have studied the time course of the absorption of bovine liver catalase after pulse radiolysis with oxygen saturation in the presence and absence of superoxide dismutase. In the absence of superoxide dismutase, catalase produced Compound I and another species. The formation of Compound I is due to the reaction of ferric catalase with hydrogen peroxide, which is generated by the disproportionation of the superoxide anion (O-2). The kinetic difference spectrum showed that the other species was neither Compound I nor II. In the presence of superoxide dismutase, the formation of this species was found to be inhibited, whereas that of Compound I was little affected. This suggests that this species is formed by the reaction of ferric catalase with O-2 and is probably the oxy form of this enzyme (Compound III). The rate constant for the reaction of O-2 and ferric catalase increased with a decrease in pH (cf. 4.5 X 10(4) M-1 s-1 at pH 9 and 4.6 X 10(6) M-1 s-1 at pH 5.). The pH dependence of the rate constant can be explained by assuming that HO2 reacts with this enzyme more rapidly than O-2. 相似文献

Reaction of horseradish peroxidase A2 and C with superoxide anion (O2-) has been studied using pulse radiolysis technique. Peroxidase C formed Compound I and an oxy form of the enzyme due to reaction of ferric enzyme with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and O2-, respectively. At low concentrations of O2- (less than 1 mM), O2- reacted with ferric peroxidase C nearly quantitatively and formation of H2O2 was negligible. The rate constant for the reaction was found to be increased below pH 6 and this phenomenon can be explained by assuming that HO2 reacts with peroxidase C more rapidly than O2-. In contrast the formation of oxyperoxidase could not be detected in the case of peroxidase A2 after the pulse, and only Compound I of the enzyme was formed. Peroxidase A2, however, produced the oxy form upon aerobic addition of NADH, suggesting that O2- can also react with peroxidase A2 to form the oxy form. The results at present indicate that the rate constant for the reaction of O2- with peroxidase A2 is smaller than 103 M-1.s-1. 相似文献

The rates of reduction of horseradish peroxidase compound II by p-methoxyphenol (4-hydroxyanisole) have been studied from pH 6.0 to 10.5. The kinetics are influenced by an acid group of pKa 8.7 on compound II. The acidic form of compound II is reactive; the basic form is not. Only the electrically neutral, unionized form of p-methoxyphenol is reactive. Fifteen different phenols were reacted with compound II at either pH 7.6 or pH 7.0 (three of them at both pH's). Rate constants varied from zero for p-nitrophenol to 3.2 X 10(7) M-1 for p-aminophenol. The reactive m- and p-substituted phenols yield a rho value of -4.6 +/- 0.5 when plotted according to the Hammett relation. This compares to the rho value of -6.9 obtained for horseradish peroxidase compound I reactions with phenols (1976, D. Job and H. B. Dunford, Eur. J. Biochem. 66, 607). The difference in sensitivity of compounds I and II to electron donating substituents on the phenols can be explained in terms of the relative simplicity of the reactions. Electron donation occurs to the electron-deficient porphyrin pi-cation radical of compound I accompanied by single proton addition to the protein. For compound II the electron is fed to the ferryl group at the center of the porphyrin in a reaction accompanied by two proton additions to the ferryl oxygen atom, one from the protein and the other from the substrate or solvent. This is followed by loss of water from the inner coordination sphere of the ferric ion. The relative reactivities of three o-substituted phenols can be explained in terms of steric hindrance which is minimal for a single o-substituent. 相似文献

Stopped flow experiments were carried out with purified hog thyroid peroxidase (A413 nm/A280 nm = 0.42). It reacted with H2O2 to form Compound I with a rate constant of 7.8 X 10(6) M-1 s-1. Compound I was reduced to Compound II by endogeneous donor with a half-life of 0.36 s. Compound I was reduced by tyrosine directly to the ferric enzyme with a rate constant of 7.5 X 10(4) M-1 s-1. Tyrosine could also reduce Compound II to the ferric enzyme with a rate constant of 4.3 X 10(2) M-1 s-1. Methylmercaptoimidazole accelerated the conversion of Compound I to Compound II and reacted with Compound II to form an inactivated form, which was discernible spectrophotometrically. The reactions of thyroid peroxidase with methylmercaptoimidazole quite resembled those of lactoperoxidase, but occurred at higher speeds. The absorption spectra of thyroid peroxidase were similar to those of lactoperoxidase and intestinal peroxidase, but obviously different from those of metmyoglobin, horseradish peroxidase, and chloroperoxidase. Similarity and dissimilarity between thyroid peroxidase and lactoperoxidase are discussed. 相似文献

Over a wide range of pH horseradish peroxidase compound I can be reduced quantitatively via compound II to the native enzyme by only 1 molar equivalent of p-cresol. Since 2 molar equivalents of electrons are required for the single turnover of the enzymatic cycle, p-cresol behaves as a 2-electron reductant. With p-cresol and compound I in a 1:1 ratio compound II and p-methylphenoxy radicals are obtained in the transient state. Compound II is then reduced to the native enzyme. A possible explanation for the facile reduction of compound II involves reaction with the dimerization product of these radicals, 1/2 molar equivalent of 2,2'-dihydroxy-5,5'-dimethylbiphenyl. If only 1/2 molar equivalent of p-cresol is present, than at high pH the reduction stops at compound II. The major steady state peroxidase oxidation product of p-cresol (with p-cresol in large excess compared to the enzyme concentration) is Pummerer's ketone. Pummerer's ketone is only reactive at pH values greater than about 9 where significant amounts of the enol can be formed via the enolate anion. Therefore, in alkaline solution it is reactive with compound I, but not with compound II, which is converted into an unreactive basic form. These results indicate that Pummerer's ketone cannot be the intermediate free radical product responsible for reducing compound II in the single turnover experiments. It is postulated that Pummerer's ketone is formed only in the steady state by the reaction of the p-methylphenoxy radical with excess p-cresol. 相似文献

The oxidation of yeast cytochrome c peroxidase by hydrogen peroxide produces a unique enzyme intermediate, cytochrome c peroxidase Compound I, in which the ferric heme iron has been oxidized to an oxyferryl state, Fe(IV), and an amino acid residue has been oxidized to a radical state. The reduction of cytochrome c peroxidase Compound I by horse heart ferrocytochrome c is biphasic in the presence of excess ferrocytochrome c as cytochrome c peroxidase Compound I is reduced to the native enzyme via a second enzyme intermediate, cytochrome c peroxidase Compound II. In the first phase of the reaction, the oxyferryl heme iron in Compound I is reduced to the ferric state producing Compound II which retains the amino acid free radical. The pseudo-first order rate constant for reduction of Compound I to Compound II increases with increasing cytochrome c concentration in a hyperbolic fashion. The limiting value at infinite cytochrome c concentration, which is attributed to the intracomplex electron transfer rate from ferrocytochrome c to the heme site in Compound I, is 450 +/- 20 s-1 at pH 7.5 and 25 degrees C. Ferricytochrome c inhibits the reaction in a competitive manner. The reduction of the free radical in Compound II is complex. At low cytochrome c peroxidase concentrations, the reduction rate is 5 +/- 3 s-1, independent of the ferrocytochrome c concentration. At higher peroxidase concentrations, a term proportional to the square of the Compound II concentration is involved in the reduction of the free radical. Reduction of Compound II is not inhibited by ferricytochrome c. The rates and equilibrium constant for the interconversion of the free radical and oxyferryl forms of Compound II have also been determined. 相似文献

Elementary reactions have been studied quantitatively in the complex overall process catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase whereby isobutyraldehyde and molecular oxygen react to form triplet state acetone and formic acid. The rate constant for the reaction of the enol form of isobutyraldehyde with compound I of peroxidase is (8 +/- 1) X 10(6) M-1 s-1 and with compound II (1.3 +/- 0.3) X 10(6) M-1 s-1. Neither the enolate anion nor the keto form is reactive. The reactivity of enols with peroxidase parallels that of unionized phenols and a common mechanism is proposed. The overall catalyzed reaction of isobutyraldehyde and oxygen consists of an initial burst followed by a steady state phase. The burst is caused by the following sequence: 1) an initial high yield of compound I is formed from reaction of native enzyme with the autoxidation product of isobutyraldehyde, a peracid and 2) compound I rapidly depletes the equilibrium pool of enol which is present. After this burst a steady state phase is observed in which the rate-limiting step is the conversion of the keto to the enol form of the aldehyde catalyzed by phosphate buffer. The rate constant for the keto form reacting with phosphate is (8.7 +/- 0.6) X 10(-5) M-1 s-1. All constants were measured in dilute aqueous ethanol at 35 degrees C, pH 7.4, and ionic strength 0.67 M. Both the initial burst of light and the steady state emission from triplet acetone can be observed with the naked eye. Since the magnitude of the burst is a measure of the equilibrium amount of enol, the keto-enol equilibrium constant is readily calculated and hence also the rate constant for conversion of enol to keto. The keto-enol equilibrium constant is unaffected by phosphate which therefore acts as a true catalyst. 相似文献

Myeloperoxidase is the most abundant protein in neutrophils and catalyzes the production of hypochlorous acid. This potent oxidant plays a central role in microbial killing and inflammatory tissue damage. 4-Aminobenzoic acid hydrazide (ABAH) is a mechanism-based inhibitor of myeloperoxidase that is oxidized to radical intermediates that cause enzyme inactivation. We have investigated the mechanism by which benzoic acid hydrazides (BAH) are oxidized by myeloperoxidase, and we have determined the features that enable them to inactivate the enzyme. BAHs readily reduced compound I of myeloperoxidase. The rate constants for these reactions ranged from 1 to 3 x 10(6) M-1 s-1 (15 degrees C, pH 7.0) and were relatively insensitive to the substituents on the aromatic ring. Rate constants for reduction of compound II varied between 6.5 x 10(5) M-1 s-1 for ABAH and 1.3 x 10(3) M-1 s-1 for 4-nitrobenzoic acid hydrazide (15 degrees C, pH 7.0). Reduction of both compound I and compound II by BAHs adhered to the Hammett rule, and there were significant correlations with Brown-Okamoto substituent constants. This indicates that the rates of these reactions were simply determined by the ease of oxidation of the substrates and that the incipient free radical carried a positive charge. ABAH was oxidized by myeloperoxidase without added hydrogen peroxide because it underwent auto-oxidation. Although BAHs generally reacted rapidly with compound II, they should be poor peroxidase substrates because the free radicals formed during peroxidation converted myeloperoxidase to compound III. We found that the reduction of ferric myeloperoxidase by BAH radicals was strongly influenced by Hansch's hydrophobicity constants. BAHs containing more hydrophilic substituents were more effective at converting the enzyme to compound III. This implies that BAH radicals must hydrogen bond to residues in the distal heme pocket before they can reduce the ferric enzyme. Inactivation of myeloperoxidase by BAHs was related to how readily they were oxidized, but there was no correlation with their rate constants for reduction of compounds I or II. We propose that BAHs destroy the heme prosthetic groups of the enzyme by reducing a ferrous myeloperoxidase-hydrogen peroxide complex. 相似文献

Peroxide oxidation of a mutant cytochrome c peroxidase, in which Trp-191 has been replaced by Phe through site-directed mutagenesis, produces an oxidized intermediate whose stable UV/visible absorption spectrum is very similar to that of compound I of the native yeast enzyme. This spectrum is characteristic of an oxyferryl, Fe(IV), heme. Stopped-flow studies reveal that the reaction between the mutant enzyme and hydrogen peroxide is biphasic with the transient formation of an intermediate whose absorption spectrum is quite distinct from that of either the native ferric enzyme or the final product. Rapid spectral scanning of the intermediate provides a spectrum characteristic of an oxyferryl porphyrin pi-cation-radical species. At pH 6, 100 mM ionic strength, and 25 degrees C, the rate constant for formation of the oxyferryl pi-cation radical has a lower limit of 6 X 10(7) M-1 s-1 and the rate of conversion of the transient intermediate to the final oxidized product is 51 +/- 4 s-1. Evidence is presented indicating that Trp-191 either is the site of the radical in CcP compound I or is intimately involved in formation of the radical. 相似文献

To elucidate a unique mechanism for the quinol oxidation in the Escherichia coli cytochrome bo, we applied pulse radiolysis technique to the wild-type enzyme with or without a single bound ubiquinone-8 at the high-affinity quinone binding site (Q(H)), using N-methylnicotinamide (NMA) as an electron mediator. With the ubiquinone bound enzyme, the reduction of the oxidase occurred in two phases as judged from kinetic difference spectra. In the faster phase, the transient species with an absorption maximum at 440 nm, a characteristic of the formation of ubisemiquinone anion radical, appeared within 10 micros after pulse radiolysis. In the slower phase, a decrease of absorption at 440 nm was accompanied by an increase of absorption at 428 and 561 nm, characteristic of the reduced form. In contrast, with the bound ubiquinone-8-free wild-type enzyme, NMA radicals directly reduced hemes b and o, though the reduction yield was low. These results indicate that a pathway for an intramolecular electron transfer from ubisemiquinone anion radical at the Q(H) site to heme b exists in cytochrome bo. The first-order rate constant of this process was calculated to be 1.5 x 10(3) s(-1) and is comparable to a turnover rate for ubiquinol-1. The rate constant for the intramolecular electron transfer decreased considerably with increasing pH, though the yields of the formation of ubisemiquinone anion radical and the subsequent reduction of the hemes were not affected. The pH profile was tightly linked to the stability of the bound ubisemiquinone in cytochrome bo [Ingledew, W. J., Ohnishi, T., and Salerno, J. C. (1995) Eur. J. Biochem. 227, 903-908], indicating that electron transfer from the bound ubisemiquinone at the Q(H) site to the hemes slows down at the alkaline pH where the bound ubisemiquinone can be stabilized. These findings are consistent with our previous proposal that the bound ubiquinone at the Q(H) site mediates electron transfer from the low-affinity quinol oxidation site in subunit II to low-spin heme b in subunit I. 相似文献

Spectral and kinetic features of the redox intermediates of human recombinant unprocessed monomeric myeloperoxidase (recMPO), purified from an engineered Chinese hamster ovary cell line, were studied by the multi-mixing stopped-flow technique. Both the ferric protein and compounds I and II showed essentially the same kinetic behavior as the mature dimeric protein (MPO) isolated from polymorphonuclear leukocytes. Firstly, hydrogen peroxide mediated both oxidation of ferric recMPO to compound I (1.9 x 10(7) M(-1) s(-1), pH 7 and 15 degrees C) and reduction of compound I to compound II (3.0 x 10(4) M(-1) s(-1), pH 7 and 15 degrees C). With chloride, bromide, iodide and thiocyanate compound I was reduced back to the ferric enzyme (3.6 x 10(4) M(-1) s(-1), 1.4 x 10(6) M(-1) s(-1), 1.4 x 10(7) M(-1) s(-1) and 1.4 x 10(7) M(-1) s(-1), respectively), whereas the endogenous one-electron donor ascorbate mediated transformation of compound I to compound II (2.3 x 10(5) M(-1) s(-1)) and of compound II back to the resting enzyme (5.0 x 10(3) M(-1) s(-1)). Comparing the data of this study with those known from the mature enzyme strongly suggests that the processing of the precursor enzyme (recMPO) into the mature form occurs without structural changes at the active site and that the subunits in the mature dimeric enzyme work independently. 相似文献

Eosinophil peroxidase, the major granule protein in eosinophils, is the least studied human peroxidase. Here, we have performed spectral and kinetic measurements to study the nature of eosinophil peroxidase intermediates, compounds I and II, and their reduction by the endogenous one-electron donors ascorbate and tyrosine using the sequential-mixing stopped-flow technique. We demonstrate that the peroxidase cycle of eosinophil peroxidase involves a ferryl/porphyrin radical compound I and a ferryl compound II. In the absence of electron donors, compound I is shown to be transformed to a species with a compound II-like spectrum. In the presence of ascorbate or tyrosine compound I is reduced to compound II with a second-order rate constant of (1.0+/-0.2)x10(6) M(-1) s(-1) and (3.5+/-0.2)x10(5) M(-1) s(-1), respectively (pH 7.0, 15 degrees C). Compound II is then reduced by ascorbate and tyrosine to native enzyme with a second-order rate constant of (6.7+/-0.06)x10(3) M(-1) s(-1) and (2.7+/-0.06)x10(4) M(-1) s(-1), respectively. This study revealed that eosinophil peroxidase compounds I and II are able to react with tyrosine and ascorbate via one-electron oxidations and therefore generate monodehydroascorbate and tyrosyl radicals. The relatively fast rates of the compound I reduction demonstrate that these reactions may take place in vivo and are physiologically relevant. 相似文献

A basic heme peroxidase isoenzyme (AKPC) has been purified to homogeneity from artichoke flowers (Cynara scolymus L.). The enzyme was shown to be a monomeric glycoprotein, M(r)=42300+/-1000, (mean+/-S.D.) with an isoelectric point >9. The native enzyme exhibits a typical peroxidase ultraviolet-visible spectrum with a Soret peak at 404 nm (epsilon=137,000+/-3000 M(-1) cm(-1)) and a Reinheitzahl (Rz) value (A(404nm)/A(280nm)) of 3.8+/-0.2. The ultraviolet-visible absorption spectra of compounds I, II and III were typical of class III plant peroxidases but unlike horseradish peroxidase isoenzyme C, compound I was unstable. Resonance Raman and UV-Vis spectra of the ferric form show that between pH 5.0 and 7.0 the protein is mainly 6 coordinate high spin with a water molecule as the sixth ligand. The substrate-specificity of AKPC is characteristic of class III (guaiacol-type) peroxidases with chlorogenic and caffeic acids, that are abundant in artichoke flowers, as particularly good substrates at pH 4.5. Ferric AKPC reacts with hydrogen peroxide to yield compound I with a second-order rate constant (k(+1)) of 7.4 x 10(5) M(-1) s(-1) which is significantly slower than that reported for most other class III peroxidases. The reaction of ferric and ferrous AKPC with nitric oxide showed a potential use of this enzyme for quantitative spectrophotometric determination of NO and as a component of novel NO sensitive electrodes. 相似文献

The present study characterizes the serial reactions of H2O2 with compounds I and II of lignin peroxidase isozyme H1. These two reactions constitute part of the pathway leading to formation of the oxy complex (compound III) from the ferric enzyme. Compounds II and III are the only complexes observed; no compound III* is observed. Compound III* is proposed to be an adduct of compound III with H2O2, formed from the complexation of compound III with H2O2 (Wariishi, H., and Gold, M. H. (1990) J. Biol. Chem. 265, 2070-2077). We provide evidence that demonstrates that the spectral data, on which the formation of compound III* is based, are merely an artifact caused by enzyme instability and, therefore, rule out the existence of compound III*. The reactions of compounds II and III with H2O2 are pH-dependent, similar to that observed for reactions of compounds I and II with the reducing substrate veratryl alcohol. The spontaneous decay of the compound III of lignin peroxidase results in the reduction of ferric cytochrome c. The reduction is inhibited by superoxide dismutase, indicating that superoxide is released during the decay. Therefore, the lignin peroxidase compound III decays to the ferric enzyme through the dissociation of superoxide. This mechanism is identical with that observed with oxymyoglobin and oxyhemoglobin but different from that for horseradish peroxidase. Compound III is capable of reacting with small molecules, such as tetranitromethane (a superoxide scavenger) and fluoride (a ligand for the ferric enzyme), resulting in ferric enzyme and fluoride complex formation, respectively. 相似文献

The reactivity of recombinant pea cytosolic ascorbate peroxidase (rAPX) towards H2O2, the nature of the intermediates and the products of the reaction have been examined using UV/visible and EPR spectroscopies together with HPLC. Compound I of rAPX, generated by reaction of rAPX with 1 molar equivalent of H2O2, contains a porphyrin pi-cation radical. This species is unstable and, in the absence of reducing substrate, decays within 60 s to a second species, compound I*, that has a UV/visible spectrum [lambda(max) (nm) = 414, 527, 558 and 350 (sh)] similar, but not identical, to those of both horseradish peroxidase compound II and cytochrome c peroxidase compound I. Small but systematic differences were observed in the UV/visible spectra of compound I* and authentic rAPX compound II, generated by reaction of rAPX with 1 molar equivalent H2O2 in the presence of 1 molar equivalent of ascorbate [lambda(max) (nm) = 416, 527, 554, 350 (sh) and 628 (sh)]. Compound I* decays to give a 'ferric-like' species (lambda(max) = 406 nm) that is not spectroscopically identical to ferric rAPX (lambda(max) = 403 nm) with a first order rate constant, k(decay)' = (2.7 +/- 0.3) x 10(-4) s(-1). Authentic samples of compound II evolve to ferric rAPX [k(decay) = (1.1 +/- 0.2) x 10(-3) s(-1)]. Low temperature (10 K) EPR spectra are consistent with the formation of a protein-based radical, with g values for compound I* (g parallel = 2.038, g perpendicular = 2.008) close to those previously reported for the Trp191 radical in cytochrome c peroxidase (g parallel = 2.037, g perpendicular = 2.005). The EPR spectrum of rAPX compound II was essentially silent in the g = 2 region. Tryptic digestion of the 'ferric-like' rAPX followed by RP-HPLC revealed a fragment with a new absorption peak near 330 nm, consistent with the formation of a hydroxylated tryptophan residue. The results show, for the first time, that rAPX can, under certain conditions, form a protein-based radical analogous to that found in cytochrome c peroxidase. The implications of these data are discussed in the wider context of both APX catalysis and radical formation and stability in haem peroxidases. 相似文献

Using both rapid-scan and conventional spectrophotometry, oxygenation of p-substituted thioanisoles by horseradish peroxidase compounds I and II was investigated at pH 5, 7 and 9. The pH-jump technique was applied to the compound II reactions at acidic and neutral pH. The rate of oxidation of the sulfides is dependent on pH, concentration of substrate and on the different substituents in the para position of the benzene ring. Our results, based on transient state observations of the enzyme intermediates, are in agreement with the results of Kobayashi, S., Minoru, N., Kimura, T. and Schaap, A.P. (Biochemistry (1987) 26, 5019-5022), obtained using 18O-labelling and studies of product formation, in which formation of a sulfur cation radical from compound I is proposed. We consider two reaction mechanisms for the compound II reaction: one a one-electron oxidation of the thioanisole, analogous to the compound I reaction, and the other, the attack of the hydroxyl radical originating from compound II on the sulfur-cation radical. 相似文献

The reaction of the trioxidocarbonate(*1-) radical (CO (3) (*-) , "carbonate radical anion") with cytochrome c was studied by pulse radiolysis at alkaline pH and room temperature. With iron(III) cytochrome c, CO (3) (*-) reacts with the protein moiety with rate constants of (5.1 +/- 0.6) x 10(7) M(-1) s(-1) (pH 8.4, I approximately 0.27 M) and (1.0 +/- 0.2) x 10(8) M(-1) s(-1) (pH 10, I = 0.5 M). The absorption spectrum of the haem moiety was not changed, thus, amino acid radicals produced on the protein do not reduce the haem. The pH-dependent difference in rate constants may be attributed to differences in ionization states of amino acids and to the change in the conformation of the protein. With iron(II) cytochrome c, CO (3) (*-) oxidizes the haem quantitatively, presumably via electrostatic guidance of the radical to the solvent-accessible haem edge, with a different pH dependence: at pH 8.4, the rate constant is (1.1 +/- 0.1) x 10(9) M(-1) s(-1) and, at pH 10, (7.6 +/- 0.6) x 10(8) M(-1) s(-1). We propose that CO (3) (*-) oxidizes the iron center directly, and that the lower rate observed at pH 10 is due to the different charge distribution of iron(II) cytochrome c. 相似文献

The apparent bimolecular rate constant for the oxidation of dicyano-bis(1,10 phenanthroline) iron(II) by compound II of cytochrome c peroxidase (ferrocytochrome c; hydrogen-peroxide oxidoreductase EC 1.11.1.5) has been measured over the pH range 2.5-11.0 at 0.1 M ionic strength, 25 degrees C, by the stopped-flow technique. An ionizable group in the enzyme, with a pKa of 4.5, strongly influences the electron transfer rate between the ferrous complex and the oxidized site in the enzyme. The electron transfer is fastest when the group is protonated, with a rate constant of 2.9 - 10-5 M--1 - s-1. The rate constantdecreases over three orders of magnitude when the proton dissociates. The apparent bimolecular rate constant for the oxidation of the ferrous complex by compound I of cytochrome c peroxidase was determined between pH 3.5 and 6. Under all conditions where this rate constant could be measured it was about three times larger than that for the oxidation by compound II. 相似文献

It is demonstrated that horseradish peroxidase (HRP) mixed with chlorite follows the whole peroxidase cycle. Chlorite mediates the two-electron oxidation of ferric HRP to compound I (k(1)) thereby releasing hypochlorous acid. Furthermore, chlorite acts as one-electron reductant of both compound I (k(2)) and compound II (k(3)) forming chlorine dioxide. The strong pH-dependence of all three reactions clearly suggests that chlorous acid is the reactive species. Typical apparent bimolecular rate constants at pH 5.6 are 1.4 x 10(5)M(-1)s(-1) (k(1)), 2.25 x 10(5)M(-1)s(-1) (k(2)), and 2.4 x 10(4)M(-1)s(-1) (k(3)), respectively. Moreover, the reaction products hypochlorous acid and chlorine dioxide, which are known to induce heme bleaching and amino acid modification upon longer incubation times, also mediate the oxidation of ferric HRP to compound I (2.4 x 10(7)M(-1)s(-1) and 2.7 x 10(4)M(-1)s(-1), respectively, pH 5.6) but do not react with compounds I and II. A reaction scheme is presented and discussed from both a mechanistic and thermodynamic point of view. It helps to explain the origin of contradictory data so far found in the literature on this topic. 相似文献
