Abstract: | The changes in the content of purified isolated cytochrome P-450 LM2 under the action of hydrogen peroxide and during its operation in a soluble reconstituted system were studied. It was found that cytochrome P-450 LM2 inactivation by hydrogen peroxide is accompanied by a decrease in the hemoprotein activity, loss of heme, oxidation of SH-groups and changes in the oligomeric state of the enzyme. There were some differences in the mechanisms of cytochrome P-450 LM2 inactivation under the action of H2O2 and during catalysis. |
