Abstract
Cytochromes P450 bind and cleave dioxygen to generate a potent intermediate compound I, capable of hydroxylating inert hydrocarbon substrates. Cytochrome P450 119, a bacterial cytochrome P450 that serves as a good model system for the study of the intermediate states in the P450 catalytic cycle. CYP119 is found in high temperature and sulfur rich environments. Though the natural substrate and redox partner are still unknown, a potential application of such thermophilic P450s is utilizing them as biocatalysts in biotechnological industry; e.g., the synthesis of organic compounds otherwise requiring hostile environments like extremes of pH or temperature. In the present work the oxygenated complex of this enzyme bound to lauric acid, a surrogate substrate known to have a good binding affinity, was studied by a combination of cryoradiolysis and resonance Raman spectroscopy, to trap and characterize active site structures of the key fleeting enzymatic intermediates, including the peroxo and hydroperoxo species.

Abstract
High-valent ferryl species (e.g., (Por)FeIV═O, Cmpd-II) are observed or proposed key oxidizing intermediates in the catalytic cycles of heme-containing enzymes (P-450s, peroxidases, catalases, and cytochrome c oxidase) involved in biological respiration and oxidative metabolism. Herein, various axially ligated iron(IV)-oxo complexes were prepared to examine the influence of the identity of the base. These were generated by addition of various axial ligands (1,5-dicyclohexylimidazole (DCHIm), a tethered-imidazole system, and sodium derivatives of 3,5-dimethoxyphenolate and imidazolate). Characterization was carried out via UV-vis, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), 57Fe Mössbauer, Fe X-ray absorption (XAS), and 54/57Fe resonance Raman (rR) spectroscopies to confirm their formation and compare the axial ligand perturbation on the electronic and geometric structures of these heme iron(IV)-oxo species. Mössbauer studies confirmed that the axially ligated derivatives were iron(IV) and six-coordinate complexes. XAS and 54/57Fe rR data correlated with slight elongation of the iron-oxo bond with increasing donation from the axial ligands. The first reported synthetic H-bonded iron(IV)-oxo heme systems were made in the presence of the protic Lewis acid, 2,6-lutidinium triflate (LutH+), with (or without) DCHIm. Mössbauer, rR, and XAS spectroscopic data indicated the formation of molecular Lewis acid ferryl adducts (rather than full protonation). The reduction potentials of these novel Lewis acid adducts were bracketed through addition of outer-sphere reductants. The oxidizing capabilities of the ferryl species with or without Lewis acid vary drastically; addition of LutH+ to F8Cmpd-II (F8 = tetrakis(2,6-difluorophenyl)porphyrinate) increased its reduction potential by more than 890 mV, experimentally confirming that H-bonding interactions can increase the reactivity of ferryl species.

Abstract
Heme-copper oxidases (HCOs) are terminal enzymes on the mitochondrial or bacterial respiratory electron transport chain, which utilize a unique heterobinuclear active site to catalyze the 4H+/4e- reduction of dioxygen to water. This process involves a proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) from a tyrosine (phenolic) residue and additional redox events coupled to transmembrane proton pumping and ATP synthesis. Given that HCOs are large, complex, membrane-bound enzymes, bioinspired synthetic model chemistry is a promising approach to better understand heme-Cu-mediated dioxygen reduction, including the details of proton and electron movements. This review encompasses important aspects of heme-O2 and copper-O2 (bio)chemistries as they relate to the design and interpretation of small molecule model systems and provides perspectives from fundamental coordination chemistry, which can be applied to the understanding of HCO activity. We focus on recent advancements from studies of heme-Cu models, evaluating experimental and computational results, which highlight important fundamental structure-function relationships. Finally, we provide an outlook for future potential contributions from synthetic inorganic chemistry and discuss their implications with relevance to biological O2-reduction.

Abstract
As a result of the adaptation of life to an aerobic environment, nature has evolved a panoply of metalloproteins for oxidative metabolism and protection against reactive oxygen species. Despite the diverse structures and functions of these proteins, they share common mechanistic grounds. An open-shell transition metal like iron or copper is employed to interact with O2 and its derived intermediates such as hydrogen peroxide to afford a variety of metal-oxygen intermediates. These reactive intermediates, including metal-superoxo, -(hydro)peroxo, and high-valent metal-oxo species, are the basis for the various biological functions of O2-utilizing metalloproteins. Collectively, these processes are called oxygen activation. Much of our understanding of the reactivity of these reactive intermediates has come from the study of heme-containing proteins and related metalloporphyrin compounds. These studies not only have deepened our understanding of various functions of heme proteins, such as O2 storage and transport, degradation of reactive oxygen species, redox signaling, and biological oxygenation, etc., but also have driven the development of bioinorganic chemistry and biomimetic catalysis. In this review, we survey the range of O2 activation processes mediated by heme proteins and model compounds with a focus on recent progress in the characterization and reactivity of important iron-oxygen intermediates. Representative reactions initiated by these reactive intermediates as well as some context from prior decades will also be presented. We will discuss the fundamental mechanistic features of these transformations and delineate the underlying structural and electronic factors that contribute to the spectrum of reactivities that has been observed in nature as well as those that have been invented using these paradigms. Given the recent developments in biocatalysis for non-natural chemistries and the renaissance of radical chemistry in organic synthesis, we envision that new enzymatic and synthetic transformations will emerge based on the radical processes mediated by metalloproteins and their synthetic analogs.

Abstract
The cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (P450s) are thiolate heme proteins that can, often under physiological conditions, catalyze many distinct oxidative transformations on a wide variety of molecules, including relatively simple alkanes or fatty acids, as well as more complex compounds such as steroids and exogenous pollutants. They perform such impressive chemistry utilizing a sophisticated catalytic cycle that involves a series of consecutive chemical transformations of heme prosthetic group. Each of these steps provides a unique spectral signature that reflects changes in oxidation or spin states, deformation of the porphyrin ring or alteration of dioxygen moieties. For a long time, the focus of cytochrome P450 research was to understand the underlying reaction mechanism of each enzymatic step, with the biggest challenge being identification and characterization of the powerful oxidizing intermediates. Spectroscopic methods, such as electronic absorption (UV-Vis), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), electron nuclear double resonance (ENDOR), Mössbauer, X-ray absorption (XAS), and resonance Raman (rR), have been useful tools in providing multifaceted and detailed mechanistic insights into the biophysics and biochemistry of these fascinating enzymes. The combination of spectroscopic techniques with novel approaches, such as cryoreduction and Nanodisc technology, allowed for generation, trapping and characterizing long sought transient intermediates, a task that has been difficult to achieve using other methods. Results obtained from the UV-Vis, rR and EPR spectroscopies are the main focus of this review, while the remaining spectroscopic techniques are briefly summarized. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Cytochrome P450 biodiversity and biotechnology, edited by Erika Plettner, Gianfranco Gilardi, Luet Wong, Vlada Urlacher, Jared Goldstone.

Abstract
Highly reliable detection, imaging, and monitoring of reactive oxygen species (ROS) are critical for understanding and studying the biological roles and pathogenesis of ROS. This study describes the design and synthesis of myoglobin and polydopamine-engineered surface-enhanced Raman scattering (MP-SERS) nanoprobes with strong, tunable SERS signals that allow for specifically detecting and imaging ROS sensitively and quantitatively. The study shows that a polydopamine nanolayer can facilitate the modification of Raman-active myoglobins and satellite Au nanoparticles (s-AuNPs) to a plasmonic core AuNP (c-AuNP) in a controllable manner and the generation of plasmonically coupled hot spots between a c-AuNP and s-AuNPs that can induce strong SERS signals. The six-coordinated Fe(III)-OH2 of myoglobins in plasmonic hotspots is reacted with ROS (H2 O2 , •OH, and O2- ) to form Fe(IV)O. The characteristic Raman peaks of Fe(IV)O from the Fe-porphyrin is used to analyze and quantify ROS. This chemistry allows for these probes to detect ROS in solution and image ROS in cells in a highly designable, specific, and sensitive manner. This work shows that these MP-SERS probes allow for detecting and imaging ROS to differentiate cancerous cells from noncancerous cells. Importantly, for the first time, SERS-based monitoring of the autophagy process in living cells under starvation conditions is validated.

Abstract
Protonated ferryl (or iron(IV)hydroxide) intermediates have been characterized in several thiolate-ligated heme proteins that are known to catalyze C-H bond activation. The basicity of the ferryl intermediates in these species has been proposed to play a critical role in facilitating this chemistry, allowing hydrogen abstraction at reduction potentials below those that would otherwise lead to oxidative degradation of the enzyme. In this contribution, we discuss the events that led to the assignment and characterization of the unusual iron(IV)hydroxide species, highlighting experiments that provided a quantitative measure of the ferryl basicity, the iron(IV)hydroxide pKa. We then turn to the importance of the iron(IV)hydroxide state, presenting a new way of looking at the role of thiolate ligation in these systems.

Abstract
We report on the protonation state of Helicobacter pylori catalase compound II. UV/visible, Mössbauer, and X-ray absorption spectroscopies have been used to examine the intermediate from pH 5 to 14. We have determined that HPC-II exists in an iron(IV) hydroxide state up to pH 11. Above this pH, the iron(IV) hydroxide complex transitions to a new species (pKa = 13.1) with Mössbauer parameters that are indicative of an iron(IV)-oxo intermediate. Recently, we discussed a role for an elevated compound II pKa in diminishing the compound I reduction potential. This has the effect of shifting the thermodynamic landscape toward the two-electron chemistry that is critical for catalase function. In catalase, a diminished potential would increase the selectivity for peroxide disproportionation over off-pathway one-electron chemistry, reducing the buildup of the inactive compound II state and reducing the need for energetically expensive electron donor molecules.

Abstract
To provide insight into the iron(IV)hydroxide pK(a) of histidine ligated heme proteins, we have probed the active site of myoglobin compound II over the pH range of 3.9-9.5, using EXAFS, Mössbauer, and resonance Raman spectroscopies. We find no indication of ferryl protonation over this pH range, allowing us to set an upper limit of 2.7 on the iron(IV)hydroxide pK(a) in myoglobin. Together with the recent determination of an iron(IV)hydroxide pK(a) ∼ 12 in the thiolate-ligated heme enzyme cytochrome P450, this result provides insight into Nature's ability to tune catalytic function through its choice of axial ligand.

Abstract
The photodissociation of cyanide from ferric myoglobin (MbCN) and horseradish peroxidase (HRPCN) has definitively been observed. This has implications for the interpretation of ultrafast IR (Helbing et al. Biophys. J. 2004, 87, 1881-1891) and optical (Gruia et al. Biophys. J. 2008, 94, 2252-2268) studies that had previously suggested the Fe-CN bond was photostable in MbCN. The photolysis of ferric MbCN takes place with a quantum yield of ~75%, and the resonance Raman spectrum of the photoproduct observed in steady-state experiments as a function of laser power and sample spinning rate is identical to that of ferric Mb (metMb). The data are quantitatively analyzed using a simple model where cyanide is photodissociated and, although geminate rebinding with a rate of kBA ≈ (3.6 ps)(-1) is the dominant process, some CN(-) exits from the distal heme pocket and is replaced by water. Using independently determined values for the CN(-) association rate, we find that the CN(-) escape rate from the ferric myoglobin pocket to the solution at 293 K is kout ≈ (1-2) × 10(7) s(-1). This value is very similar to, but slightly larger than, the histidine gated escape rate of CO from Mb (1.1 × 10(7) s(-1)) under the same conditions. The analysis leads to an escape probability kout/(kout + kBA) ~ 10(-4), which is unobservable in most time domain kinetic measurements. However, the photolysis is surprisingly easy to detect in Mb using cw resonance Raman measurements. This is due to the anomalously slow CN(-) bimolecular association rate (170 M(-1) s(-1)), which arises from the need for water to exchange at the ferric heme binding site of Mb. In contrast, ferric HRP does not have a heme bound water molecule and its CN(-) bimolecular association rate is larger by ~10(3), making the CN(-) photolysis more difficult to observe.

Abstract
Currently, there are only a handful of synthetic S = 2 oxoiron(IV) complexes. These serve as models for the high-spin (S = 2) oxoiron(IV) species that have been postulated, and confirmed in several cases, as key intermediates in the catalytic cycles of a variety of nonheme oxygen activating enzymes. The trigonal bipyramidal complex [Fe(IV)(O)(TMG(3)tren)](2+) (1) was both the first S = 2 oxoiron(IV) model complex to be generated in high yield and the first to be crystallographically characterized. In this study, we demonstrate that the TMG(3)tren ligand is also capable of supporting a tricationic cyanoiron(IV) unit, [Fe(IV)(CN)(TMG(3)tren)](3+) (4). This complex was generated by electrolytic oxidation of the high-spin (S = 2) iron(II) complex [Fe(II)(CN)(TMG(3)tren)](+) (2), via the S = 5/2 complex [Fe(III)(CN)(TMG(3)tren)](2+) (3), the progress of which was conveniently monitored by using UV-vis spectroscopy to follow the growth of bathochromically shifting ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) bands. A combination of X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), Mössbauer and NMR spectroscopies was used to establish that 4 has a S = 0 iron(IV) center. Consistent with its diamagnetic iron(IV) ground state, extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) analysis of 4 indicated a significant contraction of the iron-donor atom bond lengths, relative to those of the crystallographically characterized complexes 2 and 3. Notably, 4 has an Fe(IV/III) reduction potential of ∼1.4 V vs Fc(+/o), the highest value yet observed for a monoiron complex. The relatively high stability of 4 (t(1/2) in CD(3)CN solution containing 0.1 M KPF(6) at 25 °C ≈ 15 min), as reflected by its high-yield accumulation via slow bulk electrolysis and amenability to (13)C NMR at -40 °C, highlights the ability of the sterically protecting, highly basic peralkylguanidyl donors of the TMG(3)tren ligand to support highly charged high-valent complexes.

Abstract
X-ray induced radiation damage of protein crystals is well known to occur even at cryogenic temperatures. Redox active sites like metal sites seem especially vulnerable for these radiation-induced reductions. It is essential to know correctly the oxidation state of metal sites in protein crystal structures to be able to interpret the structure-function relation. Through previous structural studies, we have tried to characterise and understand the reactions between myoglobin and peroxides. These reaction intermediates are relevant because myoglobin is proposed to take part as scavenger of reactive oxygen species during oxidative stress, and because these intermediates are similar among the haem peroxidases and oxygenases. We have in our previous studies shown that these different myoglobin states are influenced by the X-rays used. In this study, we have in detail investigated the impact that X-rays have on these different oxidation states of myoglobin. An underlying goal has been to find a way to be able to determine mostly unreduced states. We have by using single-crystal light absorption spectroscopy found that the different oxidation states of myoglobin are to a different extent influenced by the X-rays (e.g. ferric Fe(III) myoglobin is faster reduced than ferryl Fe(IV)═O myoglobin). We observe that the higher oxidation states are not reduced to normal ferrous Fe(II) or ferric Fe(III) states, but end up in some intermediate and possibly artificial states. For ferric myoglobin, it seems that annealing of the radiation-induced/reduced state can reversibly more or less give the starting point (ferric myoglobin). Both scavengers and different dose-rates might influence to which extent the different states are affected by the X-rays. Our study shows that it is essential to do a time/dose monitoring of the influence X-rays have on each specific redox-state with spectroscopic techniques like single-crystal light absorption spectroscopy. This will determine to which extent you can collect X-ray diffraction data on your crystal before it becomes too heavily influenced/reduced by X-rays. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Protein Structure and Function in the Crystalline State.

Abstract
In recent years, the awareness of potential radiation damage of metal centers in protein crystals during crystallographic data collection has received increasing attention. The radiation damage can lead to radiation-induced changes and reduction of the metal sites. One of the research fields where these concerns have been comprehensively addressed is the study of the reaction intermediates of the heme peroxidase and oxygenase reaction cycles. For both the resting states and the high-valent intermediates, the X-rays used in the structure determination have given undesired side effects through radiation-induced changes to the trapped intermediates. However, X-rays have been used to generate and trap the peroxy/hydroperoxy state in crystals. In this review, the structural work and the influence of X-rays on these intermediates in myoglobin are summarized and viewed in light of analogous studies on similar intermediates in peroxidases and oxygenases.

Abstract
The Raman excitation profile of the nuFe O mode of horseradish peroxidase compound II exhibits a maximum at 580 nm. This maximum is located within an absorption band with a shoulder assignable to an oxygen-to-iron charge transfer band on the longer wavelength side of the alpha-band. Resonance Raman bands of the nuFe O mode of various ferryl-oxo type hemoproteins measured at 590 nm excitation indicate that many hemoproteins in the ferryl-oxo state have an oxygen-to-iron charge transfer band in the visible region. Since this red-excited resonance Raman technique causes much less photochemical damage in the proteins relative to blue-excited resonance Raman spectroscopy, it produces a higher signal-to-noise ratio and thus represents a powerful tool for investigations of ferryl-oxo intermediates of hemoproteins.

Abstract
High resolution crystal structures of myoglobin in the pH range 5.2-8.7 have been used as models for the peroxide-derived compound II intermediates in heme peroxidases and oxygenases. The observed Fe-O bond length (1.86-1.90 A) is consistent with that of a single bond. The compound II state of myoglobin in crystals was controlled by single-crystal microspectrophotometry before and after synchrotron data collection. We observe some radiation-induced changes in both compound II (resulting in intermediate H) and in the resting ferric state of myoglobin. These radiation-induced states are quite unstable, and compound II and ferric myoglobin are immediately regenerated through a short heating above the glass transition temperature (<1 s) of the crystals. It is unclear how this influences our compound II structures compared with the unaffected compound II, but some crystallographic data suggest that the influence on the Fe-O bond distance is minimal. Based on our crystallographic and spectroscopic data we suggest that for myoglobin the compound II intermediate consists of an Fe(IV)-O species with a single bond. The presence of Fe(IV) is indicated by a small isomer shift of delta = 0.07 mm/s from Mössbauer spectroscopy. Earlier quantum refinements (crystallographic refinement where the molecular-mechanics potential is replaced by a quantum chemical calculation) and density functional theory calculations suggest that this intermediate H species is protonated.

Abstract
Covalently linked films of the ferric heme protein myoglobin and poly-L-lysine on pyrolytic graphite electrodes reacted with tert-butylhydroperoxide (tBuOOH) to form ferryloxy protein species according to Michaelis-Menten enzyme kinetics. Rotating disk voltammetry data obtained in microemulsions, micellar solution, and buffers revealed a strong influence of water phase acidity on kinetic parameters. Microemulsion and surfactant type had a much smaller influence on reaction kinetics, possibly because the reaction takes place entirely in a water environment surrounding Mb in the films in all fluids. A large apparent Michaelis kcat in microemulsions with neutral water phases was offset by much weaker binding as shown by larger protein-substrate dissociation constants (Km). Acidic SDS microemulsions and pH 2 buffer provided the most efficient reaction conditions as judged by the ratio kcat/Km. Apparent kinetic constants are most likely governed by acidity-controlled protein conformations and their binding with tBuOOH in the intermediate protein-substrate complex.

Abstract
Using a combination of density functional calculations and Mössbauer spectroscopy, we have examined chloroperoxidase compound II (CPO-II). The Mössbauer spectrum of CPO-II suggests the presence of two distinct ferryl species in an approximately 70:30 ratio. Density functional calculations and cryogenic reduction and annealing experiments allow us to assign the major species as an Fe(IV)OH intermediate. The Mössbauer parameters of the minor component are indicative of an authentic iron(IV)oxo species, but we have found the 70:30 ratio to be pH invariant. The unchanging ratio of component concentrations is in agreement with CPO-II's visible absorption spectrum, which shows no change over the enzyme's range of pH stability.

Abstract
Peroxidases, oxygenases and catalases have similar high-valent metal-ion intermediates in their respective reaction cycles. In this review, haem-based examples will be discussed. The intermediates of the haem-containing enzymes have been extensively studied for many years by different spectroscopic methods like UV-Vis, EPR (electron paramagnetic resonance), resonance Raman, Mössbauer and MCD (magnetic circular dichroism). The first crystal structure of one of these high-valent intermediates was on cytochrome c peroxidase in 1987. Since then, structures have appeared for catalases in 1996, 2002, 2003, putatively for cytochrome P450 in 2000, for myoglobin in 2002, for horseradish peroxidase in 2002 and for cytochrome c peroxidase again in 1994 and 2003. This review will focus on the most recent structural investigations for the different intermediates of these proteins. The structures of these intermediates will also be viewed in light of quantum mechanical (QM) calculations on haem models. In particular quantum refinement, which is a combination of QM calculations and crystallography, will be discussed. Only small structural changes accompany the generation of these intermediates. The crystal structures show that the compound I state, with a so called pi-cation radical on the haem group, has a relatively short iron-oxygen bond (1.67-1.76A) in agreement with a double-bond character, while the compound II state or the compound I state with a radical on an amino acid residue have a relatively long iron-oxygen bond (1.86-1.92A) in agreement with a single-bond character where the oxygen-atom is protonated.

Abstract
The catalytic cycle intermediates of heme peroxidases, known as compounds I and II, have been of long standing interest as models for intermediates of heme proteins, such as the terminal oxidases and cytochrome P450 enzymes, and for non-heme iron enzymes as well. Reports of resonance Raman signals for compound I intermediates of the oxo-iron(IV) porphyrin pi-cation radical type have been sometimes contradictory due to complications arising from photolability, causing compound I signals to appear similar to those of compound II or other forms. However, studies of synthetic systems indicated that protein based compound I intermediates of the oxoiron(IV) porphyrin pi-cation radical type should exhibit vibrational signatures that are different from the non-radical forms. The compound I intermediates of horseradish peroxidase (HRP), and chloroperoxidase (CPO) from Caldariomyces fumago do in fact exhibit unique and characteristic vibrational spectra. The nature of the putative oxoiron(IV) bond in peroxidase intermediates has been under discussion in the recent literature, with suggestions that the Fe(IV)O unit might be better described as Fe(IV)-OH. The generally low Fe(IV)O stretching frequencies observed for proteins have been difficult to mimic in synthetic ferryl porphyrins via electron donation from trans axial ligands alone. Resonance Raman studies of iron-oxygen vibrations within protein species that are sensitive to pH, deuteration, and solvent oxygen exchange, indicate that hydrogen bonding to the oxoiron(IV) group within the protein environment contributes to substantial lowering of Fe(IV)O frequencies relative to those of synthetic model compounds.

Abstract
We examine the issue of ferryl protonation in heme proteins. An analysis of the results obtained from X-ray crystallography, resonance Raman spectroscopy, and extended X-ray absorption spectroscopy (EXAFS) is presented. Fe-O bond distances obtained from all three techniques are compared using Badger's rule. The long Fe-O bond lengths found in the ferryl crystal structures of myoglobin, cytochrome c peroxidase, horseradish peroxidase, and catalase deviate substantially from the values predict by Badger's rule, while the oxo-like distances obtained from EXAFS measurements are in good agreement with the empirical formula. Density functional calculations, which suggest that Mössbauer spectroscopy can be used to determine ferryl protonation states, are presented. Our calculations indicate that the quadrupole splitting (DeltaE(Q)) changes significantly upon ferryl protonation. New resonance Raman data for horse-heart myoglobin compound II (Mb-II, pH 4.5) are also presented. An Fe-O stretching frequency of 790cm(-1) (shifting to 754cm(-1) with (18)O substitution) was obtained. This frequency provides a Badger distance of r(Fe-O)=1.66A. This distance is in agreement with the 1.69A Fe-O bond distance obtained from EXAFS measurements but is significantly shorter than the 1.93A bond found in the crystal structure of Mb-II (pH 5.2). In light of the available evidence, we conclude that the ferryl forms of myoglobin (pKa4), horseradish peroxidase (pKa4), cytochrome c peroxidase (pKa4), and catalase (pKa7) are not basic. They are authentic Fe(IV)oxos with Fe-O bonds on the order of 1.65A.

Abstract
Ferryl compounds [Fe(IV)=O] in living organisms play an essential role in the radical catalytic cycle and degradation processes of hemeproteins. We studied the reactions between H2O2 and hemoglobin II (HbII) (GlnE7, TyrB10, PheCD1, PheE11), recombinant hemoglobin I (HbI) (GlnE7, PheB10, PheCD1, PheE11), and the HbI PheB10Tyr mutant of L. pectinata. We found that the tyrosine residue in the B10 position tailors, in two very distinct ways, the reactivity of the ferryl species, compounds I and II. First, increasing the reaction pH from 4.86 to 7.50, and then to 11.2, caused the the second-order rate constant for HbII to decrease from 141.60 to 77.78 M-1 s-1, and to 2.96 M-1 s-1, respectively. This pH dependence is associated with the disruption of the heme-tyrosine (603 nm) protein moiety, which controls the access of the H2O2 to the hemeprotein active center, thus regulating the formation of the ferryl species. Second, the presence of compound I was evident in the UV-vis spectra (648-nm band) in the reactions of HbI and recombinant HbI with H2O2, This band, however, is completely absent in the analogous reaction with HbII and the HbI PheB10Tyr mutant. Therefore, the existence of a hydrogen-bonding network between the heme pocket amino acids (i.e., TyrB10) and the ferryl compound I created a path much faster than 3.0x10(-2) s-1 for the decay of compound I to compound II. Furthermore, the decay of the heme ferryl compound I to compound II was independent of the proximal HisF8 trans-ligand strength. Thus, the pH dependence of the heme-tyrosine moiety complex determined the overall reaction rate of the oxidative reaction limiting the interaction with H2O2 at neutral pH. The hydrogen-bonding strength between the TyrB10 and the heme ferryl species suggests the presence of a cycle where the ferryl consumption by the ferric heme increases significantly the pseudoperoxidase activity of these hemeproteins.

Abstract
To gain insight into the protonation state of enzymatic ferryl species we have examined the applicability of Badger's rule to heme and non-heme iron-oxygen bonds. Using density functional theory we have calculated r(e) and nu(e) for the Fe-O bonds of complexes with different axial ligands, iron-oxidation, oxygen-protonation, and spin states. Our results indicate that Badger's rule holds for heme and non-heme oxo and hydroxo complexes. We find that the long Fe-O bonds that have been reported in the crystal structures of the ferryl forms of myoglobin, horseradish peroxidase, cytochrome c peroxidase, and catalase deviate substantially from the values predicted by Badger's rule, while the short Fe-O bonds obtained from X-ray absorption measurements are in good agreement with Badger's rule. In light of our analysis we conclude that the ferryl forms of myoglobin, horseradish peroxidase, and cytochrome c peroxidase are authentic iron(IV)oxos with Fe-O bonds on the order of 1.66 A and pKa's < 4.

Abstract
The iron(II)-dioxygen bond in myoglobin and hemoglobin is a subject of wide interest. Studies range from examinations of physical-chemical properties dependent on its electronic structure, to investigations of the stability as a function of oxygen supply. Among these, stability properties are of particular importance in vivo. Like all known dioxygen carriers synthesized so far with transition metals, the oxygenated forms of myoglobin and hemoglobin are known to be oxidized easily to their ferric met-forms, which cannot bind molecular oxygen and are therefore physiologically inactive. The mechanistic details of this autoxidation reaction, which are of clinical, as well as of physical-chemical, interest, have long been investigated by a number of authors, but a full understanding of the heme oxidation has not been reached so far. Recent kinetic and thermodynamic studies of the stability of oxymyoglobin (MbO2) and oxyhemoglobin (HbO2) have revealed new features in the FeO2 bonding. In vivo, the iron center is always subject to a nucleophilic attack of the water molecule or hydroxyl ion, which can enter the heme pocket from the surrounding solvent and thereby irreversibly displace the bound dioxygen from MbO2 or HbO2 in the form of O2- so that the iron is converted to the ferric met-form. Since the autoxidation reaction of MbO2 or HbO2 proceeds through a nucleophilic displacement following one-electron transfer from iron(II) to the bound O2, this reaction may be viewed as a meeting point of the stabilization and the activation of molecular oxygen performed by hemoproteins. Along with these lines of evidence, we finally discuss the stability property of human HbO2 and provide with the most recent state of hemoglobin research. The HbA molecule contains two types of alphabeta contacts and seems to differentiate them quite properly for its functional properties. The alpha1beta2 or alpha2beta1 contact is associated with the cooperative oxygen binding, whereas the alpha1beta1 or alpha2beta2 contact is used for controlling the stability of the bound O2. We can thus form a unified picture for hemoglobin function by closely integrating the cooperative and the stable binding of molecular oxygen with iron(II) in aqueous solvent. These new views on the nature of FeO2 bonding and the possible role of globin moiety in stabilizing MbO2 and HbO2 are of primary importance, not only for a full understanding of various hemoprotein reactions with O2, but also for planning new molecular designs for synthetic oxygen carriers which may be able to function in aqueous solvent and at physiological temperature.

Abstract
Studies that elucidate the behavior of the hemoglobins (Hbs) and myoglobins upon reaction with hydrogen peroxide are essential to the development of oxygen carrier substitutes. Stopped-flow kinetics and resonance Raman data show that the reaction between hydrogen peroxide and oxygenated and deoxygenated ferric Hb I (oxy- and deoxy-HbI) from Lucina pectinata produce compound I and compound II ferryl species. The rate constants ratio (k23/k41) between the formation of compound II from compound I (k23) and the oxidation of the ferrous HbI (k41, i.e., 25 M(-1) s(-1)) of 12 x 10(-4) M suggests that HbI has a peroxidative capacity for removing H2O2 from solution. Resonance Raman presents the formation of both, met-aquo-HbI and compound II ferryl species in the cyclic reaction of HbI with H2O2. The ferric HbI species is maintained by the presence of H2O2; it can produce HbI compound I, or it can be reduced to a deoxy-HbI derivative to form HbI compound II upon reaction with H2O2. The compound II ferryl vibration frequency appears at 805 and 769 cm(-1) for HbIFe(IV)=(16)O and HbIFe(IV)=(18)O species, respectively. This ferryl mode indicates the absence of hydrogen bonding between the carbonyl group of the distal Q64 and the HbIFe(IV)=O ferryl moiety. The observation suggests that both the trans-ligand effect and the polarizabilty of the HbI heme pocket are responsible for the observed ferryl oxo vibrational energy. The vibrational mode also suggests that the carbonyl group of the distal Q64 is oriented toward the iron of the heme group, increasing the distal pocket electron density.

Abstract
Alkylisocyanide adducts of microsomal P450 exist in two interconvertible forms, each giving the Soret maximum around 430 or 455 nm. This is demonstrated with a rabbit liver P450 2B4. Resonance Raman spectra of the 430- and 455-nm forms were examined for typical P450s of the two types as well as for P450 2B4 because the 430-nm form of P450 2B4 is liable to change into P420. P450cam and P450nor were selected as a model of the 430- and 455-nm forms, respectively. For the n-butyl isocyanide (CNBu) adduct, the Fe(II)-CNBu stretching band was observed for the first time at 480/467 cm(-1) for P450cam and at 471/459 cm(-1) for P450nor with their (12)CNBu/(13)CNBu derivatives. For P450cam, but not P450nor, other (13)C isotope-sensitive bands were observed at 412/402, 844/835, and 940/926 cm(-1). The C-N stretching mode was identified by Fourier transform IR spectroscopy at 2116/2080 cm(-1) for P450cam and at 2148/2108 cm(-1) for P450nor for the (12)C/(13)C derivatives. These findings suggest that the binding geometry of isocyanide differs between the two forms-bent and linear structures for P450cam-CNBu and P450nor-CNBu, respectively. In contrast, in the ferric state, the Raman (13)C isotopic frequency shifts, and the IR C-N stretching frequencies (2213/2170 and 2215/2172 cm(-1)) were similar between P450cam and P450nor, suggesting similar bent structures for both.

Abstract
The expressions for temperature-dependent magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) of the ferryl heme (Fe(4+)Por, S=1), which is a model of an intermediate product of the catalytic cycle of heme enzymes (compound II), have been derived in the framework of a two-term model. Theoretical predictions for the temperature and magnetic field dependence of MCD intensity of the ferryl heme are compared with those of the high-spin and low-spin ferric heme. Analysis of reported MCD spectra of myoglobin peroxide [Foot et al., Biochem. J. 2651 (1989) 515-522] and compound II of horseradish peroxidase [Browett et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 110 (1987) 3633-3640] has shown the presence in the samples of approximately 1% of a low-spin ferric component, which, however, should be taken into account in simulating observed temperature dependences of MCD intensity. The values of two adjustable parameters are estimated from the fit of the observed and simulated plots of MCD intensity against the reciprocal of the absolute temperature. One of them, the energy gap between the ground and excited terms, predetermines the axial zero-field splitting. The other parameter is correlated with the energy of splitting of excited quartets arising from either the porphyrin pi-->pi* transition or the spin-allowed charge-transfer transition.

Abstract
Reaction of ferric native myoglobin (Mb) with hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) was studied by the aid of stopped-flow rapid-scan spectrophotometry. In contrast to the results in previous studies where compound I was reported to be undetectable, both sperm whale and horse heart metmyoglobins (metMbs) formed a significant quantity of compound I, an oxoferryl porphyrin pi-cation radical (Por(+)-Fe(IV)(O)), during their reactions with H(2)O(2). With both kinds of Mbs, formation of compound I was more clearly observed in D(2)O than in H(2)O. The compound thus formed was capable of performing monooxygenation of thioanisole to methyl phenyl sulfoxide and a 2-electron oxidation of H(2)O(2) giving O(2) and H(2)O as products. It was also converted into ferryl myoglobin (Por-Fe(IV)(O)-globin(+)) spontaneously. Rate constants for these reactions and that for a direct conversion of metMb to ferryl Mb through the homolysis of H(2)O(2) were determined. These results established unambiguously that native metMb can form both compound I and ferryl Mb upon reaction with H(2)O(2) and that these high valent iron compounds serve as essential intermediates in Mb-assisted peroxidative reactions. The observed deuterium effect on the apparent stability of compound I was attributable to that effect on the hydrogen abstraction step in the 2-electron oxidation of H(2)O(2) by compound I.

Abstract
Prostaglandin endoperoxide H synthases-1 and -2 (PGHS-1 and -2) convert arachidonic acid to prostaglandin H(2) (PGH(2)), the committed step in prostaglandin and thromboxane formation. Interaction of peroxides with the heme sites in PGHSs generates a tyrosyl radical that catalyzes subsequent cyclooxygenase chemistry. To study the peroxidase reaction of ovine oPGHS-1, we combined spectroscopic and directed mutagenesis data with X-ray crystallographic refinement of the heme site. Optical and Raman spectroscopy of oxidized oPGHS-1 indicate that its heme iron (Fe(3+)) exists exclusively as a high-spin, six-coordinate species in the holoenzyme and in heme-reconstituted apoenzyme. The sixth ligand is most likely water. The cyanide complex of oxidized oPGHS-1 has a six-coordinate, low-spin ferric iron with a v[Fe-CN] frequency at 445 cm(-)(1); a monotonic sensitivity to cyanide isotopomers that indicates the Fe-CN adduct has a linear geometry. The ferrous iron in reduced oPGHS-1 adopts a high-spin, five-coordinate state that is converted to a six-coordinate, low-spin geometry by CO. The low-frequency Raman spectrum of reduced oPGHS-1 reveals two v[Fe-His] frequencies at 206 and 222 cm(-)(1). These vibrations, which disappear upon addition of CO, are consistent with a neutral histidine (His388) as the proximal heme ligand. The refined crystal structure shows that there is a water molecule located between His388 and Tyr504 that can hydrogen bond to both residues. However, substitution of Tyr504 with alanine yields a mutant having 46% of the peroxidase activity of native oPGHS-1, establishing that bonding of Tyr504 to this water is not critical for catalysis. Collectively, our results show that the proximal histidine ligand in oPGHS-1 is electrostatically neutral. Thus, in contrast to most other peroxidases, a strongly basic proximal ligand is not necessary for peroxidase catalysis by oPGHS-1.

Abstract
The hypervalent muscle pigment ferrylmyoglobin, formed by activation of metmyoglobin by hydrogen peroxide, was found to be reduced in a second-order reaction by N-tert-butyl-alpha-phenylnitrone (PBN, often used as a spin trap). In acidic aqueous solution at ambient temperature, the reduction is relatively slow (deltaH++ = 65+/-2kJ x mol(-1) and deltaS++ = -54+/-7 J x mol(-1). K(-1) for pH = 5.6), but phase transitions during freezing of the buffered solutions accelerates the reaction between ferrylmyoglobin and PBN. In these heterogenous systems at low temperature (but not when ice-formation was inhibited by glycerol), a PBN-derived radical intermediate was detected by ESR-spectroscopy, identified as a nitroxyl radical by a parallel nitrogen hyperfine coupling constant of 31.8 G, and from microwave power saturation behavior concluded not to be located in the heme-cleft of the protein. The acceleration of the reaction is most likely caused by a lowering of the pH during the freezing of the buffered solutions whereby ferrylmyoglobin becomes more oxidizing.

Abstract
The cyanide isotope-sensitive low-frequency vibrations of ferrous cyano complexes of cytochrome a3 are studied for cytochrome ba3 from Thermus thermophilus and cytochrome aa3 from bovine heart. Cyanide complexes of ba3 display three isotope sensitive frequencies at 512, 485, and 473 cm-1. The first is primarily an Fe-C stretching motion, whereas the lower wavenumber modes are bending motions. These iron-cyanide vibrations are independent of the redox levels of the other metal centers in the protein. On the other hand, the fully reduced bovine derivative complexed with cyanide gives rise to a bending vibration at 503 cm-1 and a stretching vibration at 469 cm-1. That is, the ordering of the stretching and bending frequencies is reversed from that of the bacterial protein. These results are analyzed by normal coordinate calculations to obtain comparative models for the binuclear O2 reducing site of the two proteins. We find that the observed frequencies are consistent with a linear Fe-C-N group and larger Fe-C stretching force constant (2.558 mdyn/A) for ba3 and a slightly bent Fe-C-N group (angle approximately 170 degrees) and a smaller Fe-C stretching force constant (2.335 mdyn/A) for aa3. Thus, there are significant differences in the interaction of cyanide with ferrous a3 in the two proteins that are most likely caused by a weaker proximal histidine interaction and stronger peripheral heme electron withdrawing effects in ba3. Possible sources of these protein-induced effects are discussed. Using the analysis developed here, comparison of the FeCN stretching and bending frequencies of the ferrous bovine a3-CN complex to those obtained from the ferric a3-CN complex suggests that upon conversion of the resting to the fully reduced protein, a conformational change occurs that constrains the ligand binding site.

Abstract
The reaction of hydrogen peroxide with a number of variants of sperm-whale myoglobin in which the distal pocket histidine residue (His64) had been mutated was studied with a combination of stopped-flow spectroscopy and freeze-quench EPR. The rate of the initial bimolecular reaction with hydrogen peroxide in all the proteins studied was found to depend on the polarity of the amino acid side chain at position 64. In wild-type myoglobin there were no significant optical changes subsequent to this reaction, suggesting the rapid formation of the well-characterized oxyferryl species. This conclusion was supported by freeze-quench EPR data, which were consistent with the pattern of reactivity previously reported [King and Winfield (1963) J. Biol. Chem. 238, 1520-1528]. In those myoglobins bearing a mutation at position 64, the initial bimolecular reaction with hydrogen peroxide yielded an intermediate species that subsequently decayed via a second hydrogen peroxide-dependent step leading to modification or destruction of the haem. In the mutant His64-->Gln the calculated electronic absorption spectrum of the intermediate was not that of an oxyferryl species but seemed to be that of a low-spin ferric haem. Freeze-quench EPR studies of this mutant and the apolar mutant (His64-->Val) revealed the accumulation of a novel intermediate after the first hydrogen peroxide-dependent reaction. The unusual EPR characteristics of this species are provisionally assigned to a low-spin ferric haem with bound peroxide as the distal ligand. These results are interpreted in terms of a reaction scheme in which the polarity of the distal pocket governs the rate of binding of hydrogen peroxide to the haem iron and the residue at position 64 governs both the rate of heterolytic oxygen scission and the stability of the oxyferryl product.

Abstract
Crocin in aqueous solution is oxidized by ferrylmyoglobin, MbFe(IV) = O, in a second order reaction with k = 183 l.mol-1.s-1, delta H++298 = 55.0 kJ.mol-1, and delta S++298 = -17 J.mol-1.K-1 (pH = 6.8, ionic strength 0.16 (NaCl), 25 degrees C), as studied by stopped-flow spectroscopy. The reaction has 1:1 stoichiometry to yield metmyoglobin, MbFe(III), and has delta G theta = -11 kJ.mol-1, as calculated from the literature value E0 = +0.85 V (pH = 7.4) vs. NHE for MbFe(IV)=O/MbFe(III) and from the half-peak potential +0.74 V (vs. NHE in aqueous 0.16 NaCl, pH = 7.4) determined by cyclic voltammetry for the one-electron oxidation product of crocin, for which a cation radical structure is proposed and which has a half-peak potential of +0.89 V for its formation from the two-electron oxidation product of crocin. The ferrylmyoglobin protein-radical, MbFe(IV)=O, reacts with crocin with 2:1 stoichiometry to yield MbFe(IV)=O, as determined by ESR spectroscopy, in a reaction faster than the second order protein-radical generating reaction between H2O2 and MbFe(III), for which latter reaction k = 137 l.mol-1.s-1, delta H++298 = 51.5 kJ.mol-1, and delta S++298 = -31 J.mol-1.K-1 (pH = 6.8, ionic strength = 0.16 (NaCl), 25 degrees C) was determined. Based on the difference between the stoichiometry for the reaction between crocin and each of the two hypervalent forms of myoglobin, it is concluded in agreement with the determined half peak reduction potentials, that the crocin cation radical is less reducing compared to crocin, as the cation radical can reduce the protein radical but not the iron(IV) centre in hypervalent myoglobin.

Abstract
The pH dependence of iron(II)/iron(III) product distribution, following reduction of the hypervalent iron in equine ferrylmyoglobin by the protein moiety of the pigment (so-called autoreduction) and by NADH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, reduced) and the rate of reduction was found to depend different on pH. Autoreduction is specific acid catalysed and has a more modest temperature dependence than autoxidation of oxymyoglobin, with the activation parameters delta H# = 58.5 +/- 0.4 kJ.mol-1 and delta S# = 2.7 +/- 0.1 J.mol-1.K-1 in 0.16 mol.l-1 NaCl. The product of autoreduction is the iron(III) pigment metmyoglobin, which is slightly modified in the protein moiety. The reaction has a positive kinetic salt effect from which it is deduced that the reactive centre of ferrylmyoglobin has a charge of +1 in agreement with the structure Fe(IV) = O. Reduction by NADH involves parallel reactions of two pigment forms in acid/base equilibrium with each other with a pKa equal to 4.9, both forms yielding metmyoglobin as well as the iron(II) pigment, oxymyoglobin, as products. The protonated form reacts faster than the deprotonated form, and two-electron transfer has greater importance for the protonated form with a limiting Fe(II)/Fe(III) product ratio of 0.6 in acidic solution compared to 0.12 in alkaline solution. A square root dependence of rate on NADH concentration suggests involvement of NAD.radicals with a disproportionation as the termination reaction.

Abstract
Reaction intermediates in dioxygen reduction by the E. coli cytochrome bo-type ubiquinol oxidase were studied by time-resolved resonance Raman spectroscopy using the artificial cardiovascular system. At 0-20 microseconds following photolysis of the enzyme-CO adduct in the presence of O2, we observed the Fe-O2 stretching Raman band at 568 cm-1 which shifted to 535 cm-1 with the 18O2 derivative. These frequencies are remarkably close to those of other oxyhemoproteins including dioxygen-bound hemoglobin and aa3-type cytochrome c oxidase. In the later time range (20-40 microseconds), other oxygen-isotope-sensitive Raman bands were observed at 788 and 361 cm-1. Since the 781 cm-1 band exhibited a downshift by 37 cm-1 upon 18O2 substitution, we assigned it to the FeIV=O stretching mode. This band is considered to arise from the ferryl intermediate, but its appearance was much earlier than the corresponding intermediate of bovine cytochrome c oxidase (> 100 microseconds). The 361 cm-1 band showed the 16O/18O isotopic frequency shift of 14 cm-1 similar to the case of bovine cytochrome c oxidase reaction.
