Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was employed to examine the thermal denaturation of the Fe(III), Fe(II), and Fe(II)-CO forms of cytochrome c peroxidase and horseradish peroxidase in phosphate buffer at pD 7.0. The amide I' regions of the deconvolved spectra are consistent with predominantly alpha-helical secondary structure around room temperature, but the alpha-helical absorptio...

The hydroperoxide-supported N-demethylation reactions catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase have been characterized in detail. The ethyl hydroperoxide-supported N-demethylation of N,N-dimethylaniline by horseradish peroxidase resulted in the formation of equimolar amounts of N-methylaniline and formaldehyde with no other products detectable by high performance liquid chromatography analysis of th...

The quenching by molecular oxygen of the fluorescence from a protoporphyrin IX adduct of horseradish peroxidase has been investigated using both intensity and time-resolved techniques. The bimolecular quenching rate constant determined for this process, as evaluated by the conventional Stern-Volmer analysis, was 2 x 10(8) M-1 s-1, among the lowest observed for protein systems. This result sugge...

The reactivity of histidine in horseradish peroxidase isoenzymes Al and C was determined by titrating with diazonium-lH-tetrazole. No exposed histidine residue was detected in the native isoenzymes. Upon removal of the heme prosthetic group, however, all three histidine residues became titratable. Studies with p-chloromercuribenzoate and 14C-iodoacetamide indicated that the 6 half-cystine resid...
