Interaction of metals at the reaction center of lipoamidase

Abstract:Various metals have been shown to inhibit porcine brain lipoamidase activity at 0.1 mM, but not ferrous and ferric ions. However, in the presence of ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) 0.1 mM iron ions did inhibit the activity. No other metals exhibited this type of increased inhibition with the addition of EDTA. The ferric- and ferrous-EDTA compounds were equally effective. Various Fe-containing compounds also inhibited the enzyme activity, the order of inhibition being: EDTA greater than o-phenanthroline greater than azide greater than citrate. Hemin also inhibited the enzyme activity strongly. However, Fe-proteins, e.g. cytochrome c, transferrin and peroxidases, were not inhibitory. These results indicate the importance of Fe ion chelates with structural and molecular size differences for interaction with the reaction center of this enzyme.
