Glutathione – Hydroxyl Radical Interaction: A Theoretical Study on Radical Recognition Process
Non-reactive, comparative (2 × 1.2 μs) molecular dynamics simulations were carried out to characterize the interactions between glutathione (GSH, host molecule) and hydroxyl radical (OH(•), guest molecule). From this analysis, two distinct steps were identified in the recognition process of hydroxyl radical by glutathione: catching and steering, based on the interactions between the host-guest ...
متن کاملTheoretical modeling of hydroxyl-radical-induced lipid peroxidation reactions.
The OH-radical-induced mechanism of lipid peroxidation, involving hydrogen abstraction followed by O2 addition, is explored using the kinetically corrected hybrid density functional MPWB1K in conjunction with the MG3S basis set and a polarized continuum model to mimic the membrane interior. Using a small nonadiene model of linoleic acid, it is found that hydrogen abstraction preferentially occu...
متن کاملA Theoretical Study on the Structure-Radical Scavenging Activity of Some Hydroxyphenols
Antioxidants are made for the struggle and reconstruction of the damaged cells, because of their ability in destroying the free radicals. On account of their importance, a theoretical procedure was applied for the study of the molecular structure and radical scavenging activity of six hydroxyphenols which have been introduced as antioxidant compounds. All geometry structures were optimized by M...
متن کاملAb Initio Theoretical Studies on the Kinetics of the Hydrogen Abstraction Reaction of Hydroxyl Radical with CH3CH2OCF2CHF2 (HFE-374pc2)
The hydrogen abstraction reaction of OH radical with CH3CH2OCF2CHF2 (HFE-374pc2) is investigated theoretically by semi-classical transition state theory. The stationary points on the potential energy surface of the reaction are located by using KMLYP density functional method along with 6-311++G(d,p) basis set. Vibrational anharmonicity coefficients, ...
متن کاملInteraction of liver methionine adenosyltransferase with hydroxyl radical.
Liver methionine adenosyltransferase (MAT) plays a critical role in the metabolism of methionine converting this amino acid, in the presence of ATP, into S-adenosylmethionine. Here we report that hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), via generation of hydroxyl radical, inactivates liver MAT by reversibly and covalently oxidizing an enzyme site. In vitro studies using pure liver recombinant enzyme and mutan...
