Reactions of superoxide dismutases with HS−/H2S and superoxide radical anion: An in vitro EPR study

Abstract: Interactions of hydrogen sulfide (HS(-)/H2S), a reducing signaling species, with superoxide dimutases (SOD) are poorly understood. We applied low-T EPR spectroscopy to examine the effects of HS(-)/H2S and superoxide radical anion O2.- on metallocenters of FeSOD, MnSOD, and CuZnSOD. HS(-)/H2S did not affect FeSOD, whereas active centers of MnSOD and CuZnSOD were open to this agent. Cu(2+) was reduced to Cu(1+), while manganese appears to be released from MnSOD active center. Untreated and O2.- treated FeSOD and… Show more

“…The colorization by H 2 S exposure and decolorization which could be accelerated by the mentioned heating procedure can also be investigated by EPR spectroscopy and can be explained by the reduction of the Cu cations in the framework from Cu(II) to Cu(I). The reduction of copper based complexes [18] or enzymes [19] was already observed by other groups and measured for example by EPR spectroscopy.…”

“…Thiol compounds bind with substantial avidity to soft metals and hemes and therefore are potentially inhibitory to enzymes that use these cofactors (Nies, 2003, Wu et al, 2015, Vitvitsky et al, 2015, Bolic et al, 2015, Nagy, 2015). Zinc has a moderate affinity for thiols, and zinc enzymes can be inhibited when moderate concentrations of cysteine or sulfide coordinate and perhaps extract the metal (Martin & Maricle, 2015, Gu & Imlay, 2013).…”

“…Like cysteine, sulfide is chemically reactive and potentially problematic. It exhibits a substantial affinity for heme and for soft metals, including those in proteins (Wu et al , 2015, Vitvitsky et al , 2015, Bolic et al , 2015, Nagy, 2015). Due to its tiny size, sulfide cannot easily be physically excluded from their active sites.…”

“…H 2 S is a reducing agent and a weak acid with approximately 4:1 HS − /H 2 S ratio at physiological pH [28]. HS − , as opposed to H 2 S, can reduce the metal center of cytochrome c and lead to production of O ⋅− 2 from molecular oxygen [29]. On the other hand, HS − /H 2 S can reduce Cu 2+ to Cu 1+ and enhance O ⋅− 2 scavenging activity of the copper-zinc SOD (CuZnSOD) [29,30].…”
