چکیده

Horseradish peroxidase can be reconstituted with cobalt porphyrin to give a cobaltic holoenzyme having physicochemical properties quite similar to those of the native ferric protein. The cobaltic protein (Co3+HRP) can be reduced to the cobaltous form (CoHRP), the analogue of ferroperoxidase and the reduced cobalt protein can bind O2 to form an analogue of oxyferroperoxidase (Compound III). Since both the CoHRP and oxy-CoHRP are EPR-visible, the cobalt has been used to probe the nature of the heme crevice in these two protein forms. The occurrence of a three-line 14N superhyperfine pattern in the spectrum of the former unambiguously shows that in the divalent state of the protein the proximal axial ligand is a nitrogenous base. The spectrum of the latter shows a uniquely large Aparallel(59Co) = 23.2 G. Although we confirm the reported failure of the Co3+HRP to catalyze peroxide-dependent oxidations of classical peroxidase substrates (Gjessing, E.C., and Sumner, J.B. (1942) Arch. Biochem. 1, 1), the oxy-CoHRP does undergo oxidation-reduction reactions analogous to those exhibited in the cytochrome P-450 catalytic cycle.

Substituted hemins as probes for structure-function relationships in horseradish peroxidase.

Low temperature visible spectra of Compounds I from peroxidases reconstituted with protohemin, 2-formyl-4-vinyldeuterohemin, 2-vinyl-4-formyldeuterohemin, 2,4-dimethyldeuterohemin, and 2,4-diacetyldeuterohemin reveal that these Fe(IV) porphyrin pi-cation radicals take the 2A2u of peroxidase-type electronic ground state. Compound I of deuterohemin horseradish peroxidase, however, takes the 2A1u ...

Phenol derivatives as enhancers and inhibitors of luminol-H2O2-horseradish peroxidase chemiluminescence.

Systematic studies on phenol derivatives facilitates an explanation of the enhancement or inhibition of the luminol-H2O2-horseradish peroxidase system chemiluminescence. Factors that govern the enhancement are the one-electron reduction potentials of the phenoxy radicals (PhO./PhOH) vs. luminol radicals (L./LH-) and the reaction rates of the phenol derivatives with the compounds of horseradish ...

Mechanism of inhibition of horseradish peroxidase by cyclopropanone hydrate.

Cyclopropanone hydrate irreversibly inactivates horseradish peroxidase in a time-dependent manner in the presence of oxidizing agent, hydrogen peroxide. The inhibition reaction is a second order reaction of cyclopropanone hydrate with compound I, the 2 electron-oxidized form of peroxidase, and results in covalent modification of the heme cofactor. A new propionic acid side chain is substituted ...

Use of horseradish peroxidase in identification of serum antibodies and immune complexes.

We made 202 examinations on specimens from 78 patients, to evaluate the application of horseradish peroxidase-labeled antisera as compared to fluorescein-labeled material in a clinical immunology laboratory. Various circulating and tissue-fixed antibodies were identified by both techniques. The horseradish peroxidase technique can be substituted for the fluorescein isothiocyanate method for the...

Electromagnetic Properties of Hemoproteins V. OPTICAL AND ELECTRON PARAMAGNETIC RESONANCE CHARACTERISTICS OF NITRIC OXIDE DERIVATIVES OF METALLOPORPHYRIN-APOHEMOPROTEIN

Paramagnetic complexes of iron (III), manganese (II), and cobalt (II) protoporphyrins IX and apohemoproteins react with nitric oxide to form spectroscopically distinct compounds. Optical and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) studies suggest that a l-electron transfer between nitric oxides and metal ions which occurs in these reactions results in the formation of spin-paired complexes of the...
