Chloroperoxidase compound I: Electron paramagnetic resonance and Mössbauer studies.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The green primary compound of chloroperoxidase was prepared by freeze-quenching the enzyme after rapid mixing with a 5-fold excess of peracetic acid. The electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra of these preparations consisted of at least three distinct signals that could be assigned to native enzyme, a free radical, and the green compound I as reported earlier. The absorption spectrum of compound I was obtained through subtraction of EPR signals measured under passage conditions. The signal is well approximated by an effective spin Seff = 1/2 model with g = 1.64, 1.73, 2.00 and a highly anisotropic line width. Mössbauer difference spectra of compound I samples minus native enzyme showed well-resolved magnetic splitting at 4.2 K, an isomer shift delta Fe = 0.15 mm/s, and quadrupole splitting delta EQ = 1.02 mm/s. All data are consistent with the model of an exchange-coupled spin S = 1 ferryl iron and a spin S' = 1/2 porphyrin radical. As a result of the large zero field splitting, D, of the ferryl iron and of intermediate antiferromagnetic exchange, S.J.S'.J approximately 1.02 D, the system consists of three Kramers doublets that are widely separated in energy. The model relates the EPR and Mössbauer spectra of the ground doublet to the intrinsic parameters of the ferryl iron, D/k = 52 K, E/D congruent to 0.035, and A perpendicular (gn beta n) = 20 T, and the porphyrin radical.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Cytochrome P450 enzymes are responsible for the phase I metabolism of approximately 75% of known pharmaceuticals. P450s perform this and other important biological functions through the controlled activation of C-H bonds. Here, we report the spectroscopic and kinetic characterization of the long-sought principal intermediate involved in this process, P450 compound I (P450-I), which we prepared ...
متن کاملChemical nature of the porphyrin pi cation radical in horseradish peroxidase compound I.
The electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and Mössbauer properties of native horseradish peroxidase have been compared with those of a synthetic derivative of the enzyme in which a mesohemin residue replaces the natural iron protoporphyrin IX heme prosthetic group. The oxyferryl pi cation radical intermediate, compound I, has been formed from both the native and synthetic enzyme, and the magnet...
متن کاملResonance Raman spectroscopy of the catalytic intermediates and derivatives of chloroperoxidase from Caldariomyces fumago.
Near-ultraviolet resonance Raman spectra of chloroperoxidase derivatives and high valent intermediates show frequencies that can be systematically assigned. In accord with previous observations of low v4 frequencies for the ferric enzyme, and quite low v4 frequencies for the ferrous enzyme, low v4 frequencies are observed for ferryl compound II and several ferric derivatives. Resonance Raman sp...

MAGNETISATION AND ELECTRON SPIN RESONANCE STUDIES OF TETRAHEDRAL AMORPHOUS CARBON
The magnetisation and electron spin resonance (ESR) spectrum of two specimens of tetrahedral amorphous carbon (ta-C), deposited from a filtered cathodic arc, were measured over a wide temperature range. The magnetisation was found to consist of superparamagnetic, paramagnetic and diamagnetic contributions. The superparamagnetic contribution resembled that recently found in carbon prepared from ...
