BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-PROTEINS AND PROTEOMICS 2015; 1854:869-81. [PMID: 25907133 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbapap.2015.04.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2015] [Revised: 04/05/2015] [Accepted: 04/14/2015] [Indexed: 10/23/2022]
Abstract
Imidazole, 1-methylimidazole and 4-nitroimidazole bind to yeast cytochrome c peroxidase (yCcP) with apparent equilibrium dissociation constants (KD(app)) of 3.3±0.4, 0.85±0.11, and ~0.2M, respectively, at pH7. This is the weakest imidazole binding to a heme protein reported to date and it is about 120 times weaker than imidazole binding to metmyoglobin. Spectroscopic changes associated with imidazole and 1-methylimidazole binding to yCcP suggest partial ionization of bound imidazole to imidazolate. The pKa for ionization of bound imidazole is estimated to be 7.4±0.2, about 7 units lower than that of free imidazole and about 3 units lower than imidazole bound to metmyoglobin. Equilibrium binding of imidazole to CcP(H52L) is biphasic with low- and high-affinity phases having KD(app) values of 9.5±4.5 and 0.13±0.04M, respectively. CcP(H52L) binding of 1-methylimidazole is monophasic with an affinity similar to those of yCcP and rCcP. Binding of 1-methylimidazole to rCcP is associated with two kinetic phases, the initial binding complete within 10s, followed by a process that is consistent with 1-methylimidazole binding to a cavity created by movement of Trp-191 from the interior of the protein to the surface. Both the equilibrium binding and kinetics of 1-methylimidazole binding to yCcP are pH dependent. yCcP has a four-fold increase in 1-methylimidazole binding affinity on decreasing the pH from 7.5 to 4.0, an observation that is unique among the many studies on binding of imidazole and imidazole derivatives to heme proteins.

Abstract
The water-soluble haem-containing peptides obtained by proteolytic digestion of cytochrome c, the microperoxidases, have been used to explore aspects of the chemistry of iron porphyrins, and as mimics for some reactions catalysed by the haemoproteins, including the reactions catalysed by the peroxidases and the cytochromes P450. The preparation of the microperoxidases, their physical and chemical properties including their electronic structure, the kinetics and thermodynamics of their reactions with ligands, electrochemical studies and examples of their uses as haemoproteins mimics, is reviewed.

Abstract
Structural changes accompanying the change in the redox state of microperoxidase-8 (MP8), the heme-octapeptide obtained from cytochrome c, and its complexes with (methyl)imidazole ligands were studied by electrochemically induced Fourier transform IR (FTIR) difference spectroscopy. To correlate with confidence IR modes with a specific electronic state of the iron, we used UV-vis and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy to define precisely the heme spin state in the samples at the millimolar concentration of MP8 required for FTIR difference spectroscopy. We identified four intense redox-sensitive IR heme markers, nu38 at 1,569 cm(-1) (ox)/1,554 cm(-1) (red), nu42 at 1,264 cm(-1) (ox)/1,242 cm(-1) (red), nu43 at 1,146 cm(-1) (ox), and nu44 at 1,124-1,128 cm(-1) (ox). The intensity of nu42 and nu43 was clearly enhanced for low-spin imidazole-MP8 complexes, while that of nu44 increased for high-spin MP8. These modes can thus be used as IR markers of the iron spin state in MP8 and related c-type cytochromes. Moreover, one redox-sensitive band at 1,044 cm(-1) (red) is attributed to an IR marker specific of c-type hemes, possibly the delta(CbH3)(2,4) heme mode. Other redox-sensitive IR bands were assigned to the MP8 peptide backbone and to the fifth and sixth axial heme ligands. The distinct IR frequencies for imidazole (1,075 cm(-1)) and histidine (1,105 cm(-1)) side chains in the imidazole-MP8 complex allowed us to provide the first direct determination of their pKa at pH 9 and 12, respectively.

Abstract
The preparation and characterization of a new microperoxidase obtained from proteinase K-treated cytochrome c(552) from Marinobacter hydrocarbonoclasticus (previously known as Pseudomonas nautica) are presented. This microperoxidase (MMP-5) has novel structural properties relative to previously reported microperoxidases, as the two intervening amino acid (X) residues within the consensual CXXCH c-type heme binding motif are missing, yielding a heme-pentapeptide with increased solubility in aqueous solvents and a 1-2 order of magnitude higher stability of the monomeric state relative to canonical microperoxidases. The electronic spectra in the near-UV and visible regions have been studied as a function of MMP-5 concentration and pH. The spectroscopic properties of MMP-5 are typical of microperoxidases with high-spin hexa- or pentacoordinate heme species dominant in the 1-8 pH range and low-spin states prevailing at higher pH values. In the presence of hydrogen peroxide, MMP-5 displays peroxidatic activities towards several compounds.

Abstract
The N-terminus acetylated ferric hemeoctapeptide from cytochrome c, N-acetylmicroperoxidase-8 (Fe(III)-NAcMP8) can be reduced by dithionite in aqueous solution to produce Fe(II)-NAcMP8. The UV-Vis spectrum has a broad Soret band and relatively poorly defined Q bands which is consistent with a mixture of a five-coordinate high spin species with His as the axial ligand and a six-coordinate, predominantly high spin species with His/H(2)O as axial ligands. There are two spectroscopically observable pK(a)s at 8.7+/-0.1 and 10.9+/-0.2 which are attributed to ionization of a heme propionic acid group and coordinated H(2)O, respectively; a pK(a) > or = 14 is due to ionization of the proximal His ligand. Equilibrium constants were determined by UV-Vis spectrophotometry at 25.0+/-0.2 degrees C and 0.5 M ionic strength (NaClO(4)) for the coordination of imidazole and a number of substituted pyridines, and complement available data for the ferric hemepeptide, allowing a comparison to be made of the affinity of an iron porphyrin with Fe in the +2 and +3 oxidation states towards these ligands. Imidazole is coordinated more strongly by the ferric porphyrin (log K=4.08) than by the ferrous porphyrin (log K=3.40). The equilibrium constants for coordination of pyridines by the ferric and ferrous porphyrins increase and decrease, respectively, with increasing ligand basicity. Values determined by cyclic voltammetry show the same dependence on the identity of the ligand. In the ferric porphyrin, the stability of the complex increases with the basicity of the ligand and hence its ability to donate electron density onto the metal. In the case of the more electron rich ferrous porphyrin, greater stability occurs with pyridine ligands that have an electron withdrawing group and hence can accept electron density from the metal. This is consistent with the midpoint reduction potentials E(1/2) of the pyridine complexes determined by cyclic voltammetry; E(1/2) is linearly dependent on, and becomes more negative with an increase in, ligand basicity. Log K for coordination of pyridines by the ferrous hemepeptide correlates well with the energy of the ligand frontier orbital with pi symmetry, suggesting that pi-bonding effects are significant in determining the strength of binding of pyridines by a ferrous porphyrin.

Abstract
The reactivity of several microperoxidase derivatives with different distal-site environments has been studied. The distal-site environments of these heme peptides include a positively charged one, an uncharged environment, two bulky and doubly or triply positively charged ones, and one containing aromatic apolar residues. The reactivity in the catalytic oxidation of two representative phenols, carrying opposite charges, by hydrogen peroxide has been investigated. This allows the determination of the binding constants and of the electron-transfer rate from the phenol to the catalyst in the substrate/microperoxidase complex. The electron-transfer rates scarcely depend on the redox and charge properties of the phenol, but depend strongly on the microperoxidase. Information on the disposition of the substrate in the adducts with the microperoxidases has been obtained through determination of the paramagnetic contribution to the 1H NMR relaxation rates of the protons of the bound substrates. The data show that the electron-transfer rate drops when the substrate binds too far away from the iron and that the phenols bind to microperoxidases at similar distances to those observed with peroxidases. While the reaction rate of microperoxidases with peroxide is significantly smaller than that of the enzymes, the efficiency in the one-electron oxidation of phenolic substrates is almost comparable. Interestingly, the oxyferryl form of the triply positively charged microperoxidases shows a reactivity larger than that exhibited by horseradish peroxidase.

Abstract
Effect of a hydrophobic peptide on folding of oxidized cytochrome c (cyt c) is studied with trityrosine. Folding of cyt c was initiated by pH jump from 2.3 (acid-unfolded) to 4.2 (folded). The Soret band of the 2-ms transient absorption spectrum during folding decreased its intensity and red-shifted from 397 to 400 nm by interaction with trityrosine, whereas tyrosinol caused no significant effect. The change in the transient absorption spectrum by interaction with trityrosine was similar to that obtained with 100 mM imidazole, which showed that the population of the intermediate His/His coordinated species increased during folding of cyt c by interaction with trityrosine. The absorption change was biphasic, the fast phase (82+/-9s(-1)) corresponding to the transition from the His/H(2)O to the His/Met coordinated species, whereas the slow phase (24+/-3s(-1)) from His/His to His/Met. By addition of trityrosine, the relative ratio of the slow phase increased, due to increase of the His/His species at the initial stage of folding. According to the resonance Raman spectra of cyt c, the high-spin 6-coordinate and low-spin 6-coordinate species were dominated at pH 2.3 and 4.2, respectively, and these species were not affected by addition of trityrosine. These results demonstrated that the His/His species increased by interaction with trityrosine at the initial stage of cyt c folding, whereas the heme coordination structure was not affected by trityrosine when the protein was completely unfolded or folded. Hydrophobic peptides thus may be useful to study the effects of hydrophobic interactions on protein folding.

Abstract
N-Acetylmicroperoxidase-8 (1) contains heme and residues 14-21 of horse mitochondrial cytochrome c (cyt c). The two thioether bonds linking protein to heme in cyt c are present in 1, and the native axial ligand His-18 remains coordinated to iron. As an approach to probing structural or functional roles played by the double covalent heme-protein linkage in cyt c, we have initiated a study in which the properties of 1 are compared with those of a synthetic mono-His coordinated heme peptide containing a single covalent linkage (2). One consequence of the greater conformational restriction imposed on peptide conformation in 1 is that His-Fe(III) coordination is approximately 1.4 kcal/mol more favorable in 1 than in 2. This highlights a clear advantage conferred to cyt c by having two covalent heme-protein linkages rather than one: greater thermodynamic stability of the protein fold. EPR (11 K) and resonance Raman (298 K) studies reveal that 1 and 2 exhibit a thermal high-spin/low-spin ferric equilibrium but that low-spin character is considerably more pronounced in 1. In addition, the thioether 2-(methylthio)ethanol (MTE) coordinates 0.5 kcal/mol more strongly to 1 than to 2 in 60:40 H(2)O/CH(3)OH and only triggers the expected conversion of iron to the low-spin state characteristic of ferric cyt c in the case of 1. This demonstrates that the axial ligand field provided by an imidazole and a thioether is too weak to induce a high-spin to low-spin conversion in a ferric porphyrin. Our results suggest that a conformationally constrained double covalent heme-protein linkage, as exists in 1 and its parent protein cyt c, is an effective solution that nature has evolved to circumvent this limitation. We propose that the stronger His-Fe(III) coordination enabled by such a linkage serves to markedly enhance the effective ligand field strength of His-18. Our studies with 1 and 2 suggest that a double covalent linkage in cyt c may also enable energetically more favorable trans ligation of Met-80 than would be possible if only a single linkage were present. This would serve to further increase the stability of the protein fold and perhaps to increase the effective ligand field strength of Met-80 as well.

Abstract
The catalytic activity of the microperoxidase-8/H(2)O(2) system toward tyramine and 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propionic acid has been determined in acetate buffer, pH 5.0. Operating with a strong excess of hydrogen peroxide, the rate-determining step of the reaction was substrate oxidation. Owing to the fast microperoxidase-8 degradation, only the very initial phase of the reactions were analyzed. The reaction rates follow a substrate saturation behavior, with turnover numbers [ k(cat)=26+/-1 s(-1) for 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propionic acid and k(cat)=22+/-1 s(-1) for tyramine] that were similar for the two substrates. In contrast, the K(M) values indicated a reduced affinity for the catalyst active species by the positively charged phenol, probably due to repulsive interaction with the protonated N-terminal microperoxidase-8 amino group. The reactivity of the catalyst active species was studied upon incubation of microperoxidase-8 with a small excess hydrogen peroxide, followed by reaction with the phenolic substrates. The kinetic analysis showed that more than two active species are accumulated. The species responsible for the faster reactions was present in solution as a minor fraction. The active intermediate which accumulated in a larger amount (intermediate III) has a reduced substrate oxidation activity. Comparison of this activity with the kinetic constants obtained under turnover experiments shows that intermediate III is not involved in the microperoxidase-8 catalytic cycle. The active species of the catalytic process are intermediates I and II, which in the absence of substrate rapidly convert to intermediate III.

Abstract
Kinetic studies were performed with microperoxidase-8 (Fe(III)MP-8), the proteolytic breakdown product of horse heart cytochrome c containing an octapeptide linked to an iron protoporphyrin IX. Mn(III) was substituted for Fe(III) in Mn(III)MP-8. The mechanism of formation of the reactive metal-oxo and metal-hydroperoxo intermediates of M(III)MP-8 upon reaction of H(2)O(2) with Fe(III)MP-8 and Mn(III)MP-8 was investigated by rapid-scan stopped-flow spectroscopy and transient EPR. Two steps (k(obs1) and k(obs2)) were observed and analyzed for the reaction of hydrogen peroxide with both catalysts. The plots of k(obs1) as function of [H(2)O(2)] at pH 8.0 and pH 9.1 for Fe(III)MP-8, and at pH 10.2 and pH 10.9 for Mn(III)MP-8, exhibit saturation kinetics, which reveal the accumulation of an intermediate. Double reciprocal plots of 1/k(obs1) as function of 1/[H(2)O(2)] at different pH values reveal a competitive effect of protons in the oxidation of M(III)MP-8. This effect of protons is confirmed by the linear dependence of 1/k(obs1) on [H(+)] showing that k(obs1) increases with the pH. The UV-visible spectra of the intermediates formed at the end of the first step (k(obs1)) exhibit a spectrum characteristic of a high-valent metal-oxo intermediate for both catalysts. Transient EPR of Mn(III)MP-8 incubated with an excess of H(2)O(2), at pH 11.5, shows the detection of a free radical signal at g approximately equal to 2 and of a resonance at g approximately equal to 4 characteristic of a Mn(IV) (S = 3/2) species. On the basis of these results, the following mechanism is proposed: (i) M(III)MP-8-OH(2) is deprotonated to M(III)MP-8-OH in a rapid preequilibrium step, with a pK(a) = 9.2 +/- 0.9 for Fe(III)MP-8 and a pK(a) = 11.2 +/- 0.3 for Mn(III)MP-8; (ii) M(III)MP-8-OH reacts with H(2)O(2) to form Compound 0, M(III)MP8-OOH, with a second-order rate constant k(1) = (1.3 +/- 0.6) x 10(6) M(-1) x s(-1) for Fe(III)MP-8 and k(1) = (1.6 +/- 0.9) x 10(5) M(-1) x s(-1) for Mn(III)MP-8; (iii) this metal-hydroperoxo intermediate is subsequently converted to a high-valent metal-oxo species, M(IV)MP-8=O, with a free radical on the peptide (R(*+)). The first-order rate constants for the cleavage of the hydroperoxo group are k(2) = 165 +/- 8 s(-1) for Fe(III)MP-8 and k(2) = 145 +/- 7 s(-1) for Mn(III)MP-8; and (iv) the proposed M(IV)MP-8=O(R(*+)) intermediate slowly decays (k(obs2)) with a rate constant of k(obs2) = 13.1 +/- 1.1 s(-)(1) for Fe(III)MP-8 and k(obs2) = 5.2 +/- 1.2 s(-1) for Mn(III)MP-8. The results show that Compound 0 is formed prior to what is analyzed as a high-valent metal-oxo peptide radical intermediate.

Abstract
Interaction between microperoxidase-8 (MP8), a water-soluble hemeprotein model, and a wide range of N-aryl and N-alkyl N'-hydroxyguanidines and related compounds has been investigated using UV-visible, EPR, and resonance Raman spectroscopies. All the N-hydroxyguanidines studied bind to the ferric form of MP8 with formation of stable low-spin iron(III) complexes characterized by absorption maxima at 405, 535, and 560 nm. The complex obtained with N-(4-methoxyphenyl) N'-hydroxyguanidine exhibits EPR g-values at 2.55, 2.26, and 1.86. The resonance Raman (RR) spectrum of this complex is also in agreement with an hexacoordinated low-spin iron(III) structure. The dissociation constants (K(s)) of the MP8 complexes with mono- and disubstituted N-hydroxyguanidines vary between 15 and 160 microM at pH 7.4. Amidoximes also form low-spin iron(III) complexes of MP8, although with much larger dissociation constants. Under the same conditions, ketoximes, aldoximes, methoxyguanidines, and guanidines completely fail to form such complexes with MP8. The K(s) values of the MP8-N-hydroxyguanidine complexes decrease as the pH of the solution is increased, and the affinity of the N-hydroxyguanidines toward MP8 increases with the pK(a) of these ligands. Altogether these results show that compounds involving a -C(NHR)=NOH moiety act as good ligands of MP8-Fe(III) with an affinity that depends on the electron-richness of this moiety. The analysis of the EPR spectrum of the MP8-N-hydroxyguanidine complexes according to Taylor's equations shows a strong axial distortion of the iron, typical of those observed for hexacoordinated heme-Fe(III) complexes with at least one pi donor axial ligand (HO(-), RO(-), or RS(-)). These data strongly suggest that N-hydroxyguanidines bind to MP8 iron via their oxygen atom after deprotonation or weakening of their O-H bond. It thus seems that N-hydroxyguanidines could constitute a new class of strong ligands for hemeproteins and iron(III)-porphyrins.

Abstract
Microperoxidase-8 (MP8) and microperoxidase-9 (MP9) have been covalently modified by attachment of proline-containing residues to the amino terminal peptide chain in order to obtain new peroxidase model systems. The catalytic activities of these derivatives in the oxidation of p-cresol by hydrogen peroxide have been compared to that of MP8. The presence of steric hindrance above the heme reduces the formation rate of the catalytically active species, while the reactivity is increased when the amino group of a proline residue is close to the iron. The modification of the catalyst affects the rate of degradation processes undergone by the heme group during catalysis. A bulky aromatic group on the distal side decreases the stability of the complex because it reduces the mobility of a phenoxy radical species formed during catalysis, while the presence of proline residues increases the number of turnovers of the heme catalysts before degradation. The complex Pro2-MP8 obtained by addition of two proline residues to MP8 exhibits the best catalytic performance in terms of activity and chemical stability.

Abstract
The ligand substitutions that occur during the folding of ferrocytochrome c [Fe(II)cyt c] have been monitored by transient absorption spectroscopy. The folding reaction was triggered by photoinduced electron transfer to unfolded Fe(III)cyt c in guanidine hydrochloride (GuHCl) solutions. Assignments of ligation states were made by reference to the spectra of the imidazole and methionine adducts of N-acetylated microperoxidase 8. At pH 7, the heme in unfolded Fe(II)cyt c is ligated by native His18 and HisX (X = 26, 33) residues. The native Met80 ligand displaces HisX only in the last stages of folding. The ferroheme is predominantly five-coordinate in acidic solution; it remains five-coordinate until the native methionine binds the heme to give the folded protein (the rate of the methionine binding step is 16 +/- 5 s-1 at pH 5, 3.2 M GuHCl). The evidence suggests that the substitution of histidine by methionine is strongly coupled to backbone folding.

Abstract
Previous work on a Lys 73 --> His (H73) variant of iso-1-cytochrome c at pH 7.5 [Godbole et al. (1997) Biochemistry 36, 119-126] showed that this variant unfolds through a nativelike intermediate that has properties consistent with replacement of the Met 80 heme ligand by His 73. Here, the pH dependence of the equilibrium unfolding of the wild type (WT) and H73 proteins have been investigated, since a characteristic pH dependence is expected for the stability of an intermediate stabilized by histidine-heme ligation. Stability has been evaluated using guanidine hydrochloride and pH denaturation methods. Above pH 5, the m-values from guanidine hydrochloride denaturation of the WT and H73 variants remain significantly different, consistent with continued population of this intermediate. At pH 4.5 the m-values for the two proteins are within error the same. To assess stability at lower pH, acid denaturation was carried out. The midpoint is about 3.3 for both proteins but the transition is broader for the H73 protein, suggestive of intermediates again being populated during the unfolding of the H73 protein at this lower pH. Heme ligation by Met 80 was monitored (695 nm absorbance) during gdnHCl (pH 4.5 and 5.0) and acid denaturation, confirming, respectively, the absence and presence of intermediates. A thermodynamic analysis demonstrates that this complex pH dependence for the presence of histidine ligation induced intermediates is expected and implicates a titratable group with a pKa of approximately 6.6. The analysis also demonstrates when the pH dependences of global stability and stability of an intermediate differ significantly, population of folding intermediates as a function of pH will show novel behavior.

Abstract
The interaction of a variety of quinoline antimalarial drugs as well as other quinoline derivatives with strictly monomeric ferriprotoporphyrin IX [Fe(III)PPIX] has been investigated in 40% aqueous DMSO solution. At an apparent pH of 7.5 and 25 degrees C, log K values for bonding are 5.52 +/- 0.03 (chloroquine), 5.39 +/- 0.04 (amodiaquine), 4.10 +/- 0.02 (quinine), 4.04 +/- 0.03 (9-epiquinine), and 3.90 +/- 0.08 (mefloquine). Primaquine, 8-hydroxyquinoline, 5-aminoquinoline, 6-aminoquinoline, 8-aminoquinoline, and quinoline exhibit no evidence of interaction with Fe(III)PPIX. The enthalpy and entropy changes for the interaction of quinolines with Fe(III)PPIX, as determined from the temperature dependence of the log K values, exhibit a compensation phenomenon that is suggestive of hydrophobic interaction. This is supported by the finding that the interactions of chloroquine and quinine with Fe(III)PPIX are weakened by increasing concentrations of acetonitrile. Interactions of chloroquine, quinine, and 9-epiquinine with Fe(III)PPIX are shown to remain strong at pH 5.6, the approximate pH of the food vacuole of the malaria parasite which is believed to be the locus of drug activity. Implications for the design of antimalarial drugs are briefly discussed.

Abstract
An improved method for the preparation of the heme octapeptide acetyl-MP8, obtained by proteolysis of horse heart cytochrome c, is described. AcMP8 obeys Beer's law at pH 7.0 in aqueous solution up to a concentration of 3 x 10(-)(5) M. The self-association constant measured at 25 degrees C (log K(D) = 4.04) is an order of magnitude lower than that for MP8, reflecting the role of the N-acetyl protecting group in abolishing intermolecular coordination. However, AcMP8 does form pi-stacked dimers in aqueous solution with increasing ionic strength. A more weakly packed pi-pi dimer reaches a maximum abundance at approximately 3 M ionic strength, but a more tightly packed dimer is favored at &mgr; > 3 M. An equilibrium model based on charge neutralization by specific binding of Na(+) ions gives a total molecular charge of 3- for AcMP8 at pH 7.0 and a self-association constant log K(D) = 4.20. AcMP8 exhibits six spectroscopically active pH-dependent transitions. The Glu-21 c-terminal carboxylate binds to the heme iron at low pH (pK(a) = 2.1) but is substituted by His-18 (pK(a) = 3.12) as the pH increases. The two heme propanoic acid substituents ionize with pK(a)'s of 4.95 and 6.1. This is followed by ionization of iron-bound water with a pK(a) = 9.59, DeltaH = 48 +/- 1 kJ mol(-)(1), and DeltaS = -22 +/- 3 J K(-)(1) mol(-)(1). The electronic spectra indicate that AcMP8 is predominantly in the S = (5)/(2) state at pH 7.0, while the hydroxo complex at pH 10.5 corresponds to an equilibrium mixture of S = (5)/(2) and S = (1)/(2) states at 25 degrees C. In the final transition, His-18 ionizes to form the S = (1)/(2) histidinate complex with a pK(a) of 12.71. AcMP8 is relatively stable under alkaline conditions, dimerizing slowly at high pH (k = 2.59 +/- 0.14 M(-)(1) s(-)(1)) to form a high-spin &mgr;-oxo-bridged species. The pH-dependent behavior of AcMP8 in the presence of excess 3-cyanopyridine, however, is markedly different. At low pH, AcMP8 simultaneously binds the exogenous ligand and the Glu-21 c-terminal carboxylate with a pK(a) < 2. His-18 replaces the carboxylate ligand at higher pH (pK(a) = 2.60), and both heme propanoic acid groups ionize with a mean pK(a) = 5.10. Unlike AcMP8.OH(-), the axial histidine of the 3-CNPy complex ionizes at near neutral pH (pK(a) = 7.83), prior to being replaced by OH(-) (pK(a) = 10.13). The sixth transition in the AcMP8/3-CNPy system produces the bis(hydroxo) complex (pK(a) > 13).

Abstract
The rapid, efficient preparation of pure microperoxidase-8 (MP-8) is described. Ligand binding studies confirm that MP-8 is monomeric in alkaline solution. It is shown that the monomeric MP-8 activates oxygen in a similar manner to that already reported for alkaline hemin, establishing the octapeptide as a possible second generation model for the oxygen activation/insertion reactions of the cytochrome P-450.

Abstract
The peroxidatic activity of the heme octapeptide from cytochrome c, microperoxidase-8 (MP-8), was assayed at 25 degrees C under conditions where formation of Compound I is rate limiting. In the pH range 6-9, the reaction rate increased linearly with a slope close to unity. The active form of the substrate is the hydroperoxide anion, HO2-, and an extrapolated second-order rate constant was obtained for the reaction of aquoMP-8 with HO2- of 3.7 X 10(8) M-1 sec-1, which is close to the second-order rate constants reported for reaction of the peroxidase enzymes with H2O2. Comparison with published data shows that the Fe3+ ion of MP-8 reacts as expected with simple anions, electrons, and HO2-, while the analogous reactions of the enzymes all show a requirement for one H+. We conclude that the peroxidase enzymes activate H2O2 under physiological conditions through a pH-independent, H+-coupled binding of the required H2O2-. The peroxidase activity of MP-8 can be increased more than tenfold by the presence of the guanidinium ion, which is ascribed to formation of the ion-pair GuaH+HO2-; this suggests a role for the invariant distal Arg in the enzymes.

The monomeric heme octapeptide from cytochrome c, microperoxidase-8, (MP-8), coordinates CN- with log K = 7.55 +/- 0.04 at 25 degrees C in 20% (v/v) aqueous methanol. Log K values are independent of pH between 6 and 9. A spectrophotometric titration of cyanoMP-8 between pH 5.5 and 13.8 gave a single pKa greater than or equal to 13.5 ascribed to ionization of the proximal His ligand. A study of the kinetics of the reaction of MP-8 with cyanide between pH 5.5 and 12, at 25 degrees C and mu = 0.1, indicates that formation of cyanoMP-8 occurs via three routes: attack of CN- on Fe(III) (k1 = 6.0 +/- 0.3 X 10(5) M-1 sec-1); attack of HCN on Fe(III) (k2 = 4.8 +/- 2.0 X 10(3) M-1 sec-1), followed by deprotonation and isomerization to form the C-bound species; and displacement of OH- by CN- when the proximal His ligand is ionized (k5 = 1.8 +/- 0.1 X 10(5) M-1 sec-1). These results are compared with available data for the reaction of cyanide with aquocobalamin and with various hemoproteins.
