Abstract:Heme oxygenase (HO) catalyzes the O(2)-dependent degradation of heme to biliverdin IXα, carbon monoxide (CO), and free ferrous iron through a multistep mechanism. Electrons required for HO catalysis in mammals are provided by NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase. Recently, Kim et al. reported for the first time that HO, especially inducible HO-1, appears in caveolae and showed that caveolin-1, a principal isoform of the caveolin family, physically interacts with HO-1 Jung , N. H. et al. ( 2003 ) IUBMB Life 55 , 525 - 532 ; Kim , H. P. et al. ( 2004 ) FASEB J. 18 , 1080 - 1089 ]. In the present study, we confirmed by immunoprecipitation experiments that rat HO-1 and rat caveolin-1 (residues 1-101) directly interact with each other and that the HO-1 activity is inhibited by caveolin-1 (1-101). The 82-101 residues of caveolin-1 (CAV(82-101)), called the caveolin scaffolding domain, play essential roles in caveolin-related protein-protein interactions. The HO-1 activity is also inhibited by CAV(82-101) in a competitive manner with hemin, and a hemin titration experiment showed that CAV(82-101) interferes with hemin binding to HO-1. The enzyme kinetics and surface plasmon resonance experiments gave comparable K(i) and K(D) values of 5.2 and 1.0 μM for CAV(82-101), respectively, with respect to the interaction with HO-1. These observations indicated that CAV(82-101) and hemin share a common binding site within the HO-1 protein. The identified caveolin binding motif (FLLNIELF) of rat HO-1 is incomplete compared to the proposed consensus sequence. The affinity between HO-1 and CAV(82-101), however, was almost completely or remarkably eliminated by replacement of Phe(207) and/or Phe(214) with Ala, indicating that HO-1 binds to caveolin-1 via this motif. Among the peptide fragments derived from CAV(82-101), i.e., CAV(82-91), CAV(87-96), CAV(92-101), and CAV(97-101), CAV(92-101) and CAV(97-101) are able to inhibit the HO-1 activity to a similar extent; thus, the five-amino acid sequence (residues 97-101) is considered to be a minimum sequence for binding to HO-1.
