Catalase reaction by myoglobin mutants and native catalase: mechanistic investigation by kinetic isotope effect.
The catalase reaction has been studied in detail by using myoglobin (Mb) mutants. Compound I of Mb mutants (Mb-I), a ferryl species (Fe(IV)=O) paired with a porphyrin radical cation, is readily prepared by the reaction with a nearly stoichiometric amount of m-chloroperbenzoic acid. Upon the addition of H2O2 to an Mb-I solution, Mb-I is reduced back to the ferric state without forming any interm...
متن کاملThe reaction of superoxide radical with catalase. Mechanism of the inhibition of catalase by superoxide radical.
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 disproportion...
متن کاملStudies on the Effect of Temperature on the Catalase Reaction. Ii. Loss of Catalase Activity
In the preceding paper (1) the possibility of spontaneous inactivation of the enzyme by heat has been mentioned as a factor responsible for the diminished catalase activity, especially at temperatures above 20°C. To determine to what extent this may have played a r61e in the experiments at different temperatures, the activity of catalase subjected for various lengths of time to the influence of...
متن کاملIs Root Catalase a Bifunctional Catalase-Peroxidase?
Plant catalases exhibit spatial and temporal distribution of their activity. Moreover, except from the typical monofunctional catalase, a bifunctional catalase-peroxidase has been reported. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the leaf and root catalases from six different plant species (Lactuca sativa, Cichorium endivia, Apium graveolens, Petroselinum crispum, Lycopersicon esculent...
متن کاملCatalase Concentration
Brahn (3) observed very low liver catalase ac tivity in human beings who had died as the result of malignant growths. Later work showed that of all the individual liver enzymes studied in can cerous rats and mice the activity of catalase was by far the most affected. Greenstein and co workers (6, 7) have reported that with the pro gressive growth of the tumor there is a decrease in liver catala...
