Role of superoxide in catalase-peroxidase-mediated isoniazid action against mycobacteria.
Isoniazid (INH) activation in vitro is associated with reduction of the mycobacterial ferric KatG catalase-peroxidase by hydrazine and reaction with O2 to form an oxyferrous enzyme complex. Since this complex could also form directly via reaction of ferric KatG with superoxide, intracellular activation might be responsive to superoxide concentration. When Mycobacterium smegmatis carrying the M....
متن کاملPeroxidase-mediated oxidation of isoniazid.
Oxidation of isonicotinic acid hydrazide (isoniazid) by horseradish peroxidase at the expense of H2O2 yielded reactive species which were able to reduce nitroblue tetrazolium and bleach p-nitrosodimethylaniline. Nicotinic acid hydrazide oxidation did not cause these effects. At slightly alkaline pH, oxidation of isonicotinic acid hydrazide by horseradish peroxidase proceeded at the expense of m...
متن کاملAction of hypochlorous acid on the antioxidant protective enzymes superoxide dismutase, catalase and glutathione peroxidase.
The neutrophil enzyme myeloperoxidase generates hypochlorous acid (HOCl) at sites of inflammation. Glutathione peroxidase is very quickly inactivated by low concentration of HOCl. Inactivation of catalase is also rapid, but requires higher HOCl concentrations and the haem appears to be degraded. Inactivation of bovine CuZn superoxide dismutase is slower. Hence superoxide dismutase should not be...
متن کاملIsoniazid activation defects in recombinant Mycobacterium tuberculosis catalase-peroxidase (KatG) mutants evident in InhA inhibitor production.
Mycobacterium tuberculosis KatG catalyzes the activation of the antitubercular agent isoniazid to yield an inhibitor targeting enoyl reductase (InhA). However, no firm biochemical link between many KatG variants and isoniazid resistance has been established. In the present study, six distinct KatG variants identified in clinical Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates resistant to isoniazid were ge...
متن کاملperoxidase, superoxide dismutase and catalase activities of the pistacia khinjuk seedlings under drought stress
the aims of this study were to assess the effects of drought stress on peroxidase (pod), superoxide dismutase (sod) and catalase (cat) activities as well as free proline content and growth parameters of pistacia khinjuk seedlings under drought stress. therefore, the one-year seedlings of pistacia khinjuk subjected to water stress (25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% field capacity) for 8 months in greenhou...
