Precise determination of heme binding affinity in proteins

Abstract: Accumulating evidence suggests a new role for cellular heme as a signalling molecule, in which interactions with target proteins are more transient than found with traditionally-defined hemoproteins.To study this role, a precise method is needed for determining the heme-binding affinity (or dissociation constant, Kd). Estimates of Kd are commonly made following a spectrophotometric titration of an apoprotein with hemin. An impediment to precise determination is, however, the challenge in discriminating between… Show more

“…Assuming 1 : 1 protein : ligand binding stoichiometry based on the obtained crystal structure, spectrophotometric titration yielded a K d of 1.4 ± 0.3 µ m . This value is comparable to those determined for full‐length wtBlc binding to fatty acids [14] or some other heme‐binding proteins like lipocalin α 1 ‐microglobulin [43], bacterial chlorite dismutase‐like protein HemQ [44], or some all‐helical hemoproteins like horseradish peroxidase [45]. The affinity for heme is lower than that of classical heme‐binding proteins like apohemoglobins and apomyoglobins ( K d on the order of 10 −14 m ) [46], some other β‐barrel proteins like nitrobindins ( K d on the order of 10 −12 m ) [47], or hemophores ( K d on the order of 10 −10 m ) [48].…”
