Oxygen catalyzed mobilization of iron from ferritin by iron(III) chelate ligands.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Tridentate chelate ligands of 2,6-bis[hydroxy(methyl)amino]-1,3,5-triazine family rapidly release iron from human recombinant ferritin in the presence of oxygen. The reaction is inhibited by superoxide dismutase, catalase, mannitol and urea. Suggested reaction mechanism involves reduction of the ferritin iron core by superoxide anion, diffusion of iron(II) cations outside the ferritin shell, and regeneration of superoxide anions through oxidation of iron(II) chelate complexes with molecular oxygen.

Iron release and uptake by plant ferritin: effects of pH, reduction and chelation.
Ferritins are iron-storage proteins that accumulate in plastids during seed formation, and also in leaves during senescence or iron overload. Iron release from ferritins occurs during growth of seedlings and greening of plastids. Depending on the concentration of the reducing agent ascorbate, either an overall iron release or uptake by ferritins from iron(III) citrate may occur. We have designe...
متن کاملInhibition of superoxide and ferritin-dependent lipid peroxidation by ceruloplasmin.
Ceruloplasmin (CP) was found to inhibit xanthine oxidase and ferritin-dependent peroxidation of phospholipid liposomes, as evidenced by decreased malondialdehyde formation. Ceruloplasmin was also shown to inhibit superoxide-mediated mobilization of iron from ferritin, in a concentration-dependent manner, as measured spectrophotometrically using the iron(II) chelator bathophenanthroline sulfonat...
متن کاملThe binding of ferric iron by ferritin.
Equilibrium-dialysis experiments with 59Fe-labelled Fe(III) chelate solutions show that ferritin is capable of binding a limited number of Fe(III) atoms. Some of this Fe(III) is readily removed, but up to about 200 Fe(III) atoms/molecule remain bound after extensive washing. Some exchange of labelled Fe(III) with endogenous unlabelled ferritin Fe occurs during prolonged dialysis against 59Fe(II...

BACKGROUND Iron deficiency is one of the most common nutritional deficiencies worldwide. It is more prevalent when iron requirements are increased during pregnancy and during growth spurts of infancy and adolescence. The last stage in the process of iron depletion is characterized by a decrease in hemoglobin concentration, resulting in iron deficiency anemia. Iron deficiency, even before it is ...

We have investigated the reaction products of several iron(III) compounds with hydrogen peroxide, and have found that hydrogen peroxide promotes the formation of an oxo-bridged iron(III) species in the presence of methanol (electron donor), and carboxyl groups of the ligand systems play a role to give the tetranuclear iron(III) compound containing a bent Fe-O-Fe unit (O: oxo oxygen atom). Based...
