Abstract
Iron porphyrins play several important roles in present-day living systems and probably already existed in very early life forms. Hemin (= ferric protoporphyrin IX = ferric heme b), for example, is the prosthetic group at the active site of heme peroxidases, catalyzing the oxidation of a number of different types of reducing substrates after hemin is first oxidized by hydrogen peroxide as the oxidizing substrate of the enzyme. The active site of heme peroxidases consists of a hydrophobic pocket in which hemin is embedded noncovalently and kept in place through coordination of the iron atom to a proximal histidine side chain of the protein. It is this partially hydrophobic local environment of the enzyme which determines the efficiency with which the sequential reactions of the oxidizing and reducing substrates proceed at the active site. Free hemin, which has been separated from the protein moiety of heme peroxidases, is known to aggregate in an aqueous solution and exhibits low catalytic activity. Based on previous reports on the use of surfactant micelles to solubilize free hemin in a nonaggregated state, the peroxidase-like activity of hemin in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) at concentrations below and above the critical concentration for SDS micelle formation (critical micellization concentration (cmc)) was systematically investigated. In most experiments, 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) was applied as a reducing substrate at pH = 7.2. The presence of SDS clearly had a positive effect on the reaction in terms of initial reaction rate and reaction yield, even at concentrations below the cmc. The highest activity correlated with the cmc value, as demonstrated for reactions at three different HEPES concentrations. The 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonate salt (HEPES) served as a pH buffer substance and also had an accelerating effect on the reaction. At the cmc, the addition of l-histidine (l-His) resulted in a further concentration-dependent increase in the peroxidase-like activity of hemin until a maximal effect was reached at an optimal l-His concentration, probably corresponding to an ideal mono-l-His ligation to hemin. Some of the results obtained can be understood on the basis of molecular dynamics simulations, which indicated the existence of intermolecular interactions between hemin and HEPES and between hemin and SDS. Preliminary experiments with SDS/dodecanol vesicles at pH = 7.2 showed that in the presence of the vesicles, hemin exhibited similar peroxidase-like activity as in the case of SDS micelles. This supports the hypothesis that micelle- or vesicle-associated ferric or ferrous iron porphyrins may have played a role as primitive catalysts in membranous prebiotic compartment systems before cellular life emerged.

Abstract
Indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) is a heme-containing enzyme that catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the kynurenine pathway of tryptophan (TRP) metabolism. As it is an inflammation-induced immunoregulatory enzyme, pharmacological inhibition of IDO1 activity is currently being pursued as a potential therapeutic tool for the treatment of cancer and other disease states. As such, a detailed understanding of the mechanism of action of IDO1 inhibitors with various mechanisms of inhibition is of great interest. Comparison of an apo-form-binding IDO1 inhibitor (GSK5628) to the heme-coordinating compound, epacadostat (Incyte), allows us to explore the details of the apo-binding inhibition of IDO1. Herein, we demonstrate that GSK5628 inhibits IDO1 by competing with heme for binding to a heme-free conformation of the enzyme (apo-IDO1), whereas epacadostat coordinates its binding with the iron atom of the IDO1 heme cofactor. Comparison of these two compounds in cellular systems reveals a long-lasting inhibitory effect of GSK5628, previously undescribed for other known IDO1 inhibitors. Detailed characterization of this apo-binding mechanism for IDO1 inhibition might help design superior inhibitors or could confer a unique competitive advantage over other IDO1 inhibitors vis-à-vis specificity and pharmacokinetic parameters.

Abstract
Heme is an essential prosthetic group in proteins that reside in virtually every subcellular compartment performing diverse biological functions. Irrespective of whether heme is synthesized in the mitochondria or imported from the environment, this hydrophobic and potentially toxic metalloporphyrin has to be trafficked across membrane barriers, a concept heretofore poorly understood. Here we show, using subcellular-targeted, genetically encoded hemoprotein peroxidase reporters, that both extracellular and endogenous heme contribute to cellular labile heme and that extracellular heme can be transported and used in toto by hemoproteins in all six subcellular compartments examined. The reporters are robust, show large signal-to-background ratio, and provide sufficient range to detect changes in intracellular labile heme. Restoration of reporter activity by heme is organelle-specific, with the Golgi and endoplasmic reticulum being important sites for both exogenous and endogenous heme trafficking. Expression of peroxidase reporters in Caenorhabditis elegans shows that environmental heme influences labile heme in a tissue-dependent manner; reporter activity in the intestine shows a linear increase compared with muscle or hypodermis, with the lowest heme threshold in neurons. Our results demonstrate that the trafficking pathways for exogenous and endogenous heme are distinct, with intrinsic preference for specific subcellular compartments. We anticipate our results will serve as a heuristic paradigm for more sophisticated studies on heme trafficking in cellular and whole-animal models.

Abstract
Enzymes play a vital role in catalysing almost all chemical reactions that occur in biological systems. Some enzymes must form complexes with non-protein molecules called cofactors to express catalytic activities. Although the control of catalytic reactions via apoenzyme–cofactor complexes has attracted significant attention, the reports have been limited to the microscale. Here, we report a system to express catalytic activity by adhesion of an apoenzyme gel and a cofactor gel. The apoenzyme and cofactor gels act as catalysts when they form a gel assembly, but they lose catalytic ability upon manual dissociation. We successfully construct a system with switchable catalytic activity via adhesion and separation of the apoenzyme gel with the cofactor gel. We expect that this methodology can be applied to regulate the functional activities of enzymes that bear cofactors in their active sites, such as the oxygen transport of haemoglobin or myoglobin and the electron transport of cytochromes.

Abstract
Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) is a glycolytic enzyme that also functions in transcriptional regulation, oxidative stress, vesicular trafficking, and apoptosis. Because GAPDH is required for the insertion of cellular heme into inducible nitric oxide synthase [Chakravarti, R., et al. (2010) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 107, 18004-18009], we extensively characterized the heme binding properties of GAPDH. Substoichiometric amounts of ferric heme bound to GAPDH (one heme per GAPDH tetramer) to form a low-spin complex with UV-visible maxima at 362, 418, and 537 nm and when reduced to ferrous gave maxima at 424, 527, and 559 nm. Ferric heme association and dissociation rate constants at 10 °C were as follows: k(on) = 17800 M(-1) s(-1), k(off1) = 7.0 × 10(-3) s(-1), and k(off2) = 3.3 × 10(-4) s(-1) (giving approximate affinities of 19-390 nM). Ferrous heme bound more poorly to GAPDH and dissociated with a k(off) of 4.2 × 10(-3) s(-1). Magnetic circular dichroism, resonance Raman, and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopic data on the ferric, ferrous, and ferrous-CO complexes of GAPDH showed that the heme is bis-ligated with His as the proximal ligand. The distal ligand in the ferric complex was not displaced by CN(-) or N(3)(-) but in the ferrous complex could be displaced by CO at a rate of 1.75 s(-1) (for >0.2 mM CO). Studies with heme analogues revealed selectivity toward the coordinating metal and porphyrin ring structure. The GAPDH-heme complex was isolated from bacteria induced to express rabbit GAPDH in the presence of δ-aminolevulinic acid. Our finding of heme binding to GAPDH expands the protein's potential roles. The strength, selectivity, reversibility, and redox sensitivity of heme binding to GAPDH are consistent with it performing heme sensing or heme chaperone-like functions in cells.

Abstract
The modification of myoglobin is an attractive process not only for understanding its molecular mechanism but also for engineering the protein function. The strategy of myoglobin functionalization can be divided into at least two approaches: site-directed mutagenesis and reconstitution with a non-natural prosthetic group. The former method enables us to mainly modulate the physiological function, while the latter has the advantage of introducing a new function on the protein. Particularly, replacement of the native hemin with an artificially created hemin having hydrophobic moieties at the terminal of the heme-propionate side chains serves as an appropriate substrate-binding site near the heme pocket, and consequently enhances the peroxidase and peroxygenase activities for the reconstituted myoglobin. In addition, the incorporation of the synthetic hemin bearing modified heme-propionates into an appropriate apomyoglobin mutant drastically enhances the peroxidase activity. In contrast, to convert myoglobin into a cytochrome P450 enzyme, a flavin moiety as an electron transfer mediator was introduced at the terminal of the heme-propionate side chain. The flavomyoglobin catalyzes the deformylation of 2-phenylpropanal in the presence of NADH under aerobic conditions through the peroxoanion formation from the oxygenated species. In addition, modification of the heme-propionate side chains has an significant influence on regulating the reactivity of the horseradish peroxidase. Furthermore, the heme-propionate side chain can form a metal binding site with a carboxylate residue in the heme pocket. These studies indicate that modification of the heme-propionate side chains can be a new and effective way to engineer functions for the hemoproteins.

Abstract
The advent of microoptoelectromechanical systems (MOEMS) and its integration with other technologies such as microfluidics, microthermal, immunoproteomics, etc. has led to the concept of an integrated micro-total-analysis systems (microTAS) or Lab-on-a-Chip for chemical and biological applications. Recently, research and development of microTAS have attained a significant growth rate over several biodetection sciences, in situ medical diagnoses, and point-of-care testing applications. However, it is essential to develop suitable biophysical label-free detection methods for the success, reliability, and ease of use of the microTAS. We proposed an infrared (IR)-based evanescence wave detection system on the silicon-on-insulator platform for biodetection with microTAS. The system operates on the principle of bio-optical interaction that occurs due to the evanescence of light from the waveguide device. The feasibility of biodetection has been experimentally investigated by the detection of horse radish peroxidase upon its reaction with hydrogen peroxide.

Abstract
Many enzymes contain a nondiffusible organic cofactor, often termed a prosthetic group, which is located in the active site and essential for the catalytic activity of the enzyme. These cofactors can often be extracted from the protein to yield the respective apoenzyme, which can subsequently be reconstituted with an artificial analogue of the native cofactor. Nowadays a large variety of synthetic cofactors can be used for the reconstitution of apoenzymes and, thus, generate novel semisynthetic enzymes. This approach has been refined over the past decades to become a versatile tool of structural enzymology to elucidate structure-function relationships of enzymes. Moreover, the reconstitution of apoenzymes can also be used to generate enzymes possessing enhanced or even entirely new functionality. This Review gives an overview on historical developments and the current state-of-the-art on apoenzyme reconstitution.

Abstract
Quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics calculations were utilized to study the process of oxidation of a native substrate (ferulic acid) by the active species of horseradish peroxidase (Dunford, H. B. Heme Peroxidases; Wiley-VCH: New York, 1999), Compound I and Compound II, and the manner by which the enzyme returns to its resting state. The results match experimental findings and reveal additional novel features. The calculations demonstrate that both oxidation processes are initiated by a proton-coupled electron-transfer (PCET) step, in which the active species of the enzyme participate only as electron-transfer partners, while the entire proton-transfer event is being relayed from the substrate to and from the His42 residue by a water molecule (W402). The reason for the observed (Henriksen, A; Smith, A. T.; Gajhede, M. J. Biol. Chem. 1999, 274, 35005-35011) similar reactivities of Compound I and Compound II toward ferulic acid is that the reactive isomer of Compound II is the, hitherto unobserved, Por(*)(+)Fe(III)OH isomer that resembles Compound I. The PCET mechanism reveals that His42 and W402 are crucial moieties and they determine the function of the HRP enzyme and account for its ability to perform substrate oxidation (Poulos, T. L. Peroxidases and Cytochrome P450. In The Porphyrin Handbook; Kadish, K. M., Smith, K. M., Guilard, R., Eds.; Academic Press: New York, 2000; Vol. 4, pp 189). In view of the results, the possibility of manipulating substrate oxidation by magnetic fields is an intriguing possibility.

Abstract
We report on biohybrid surfactants, termed "giant amphiphiles", in which a protein or an enzyme acts as the polar head group and a synthetic polymer as the apolar tail. It is demonstrated that the modification of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and myoglobin (Mb) with an apolar polymer chain through the cofactor reconstitution method yields giant amphiphiles that form spherical aggregates (vesicles) in aqueous solution. Both HRP and Mb retain their original functionality when modified with a single polystyrene chain, but reconstitution has an effect on their activities. In the case of HRP the enzymatic activity decreases and for Mb the stability of the dioxygen myoglobin (oxy-Mb) complex is reduced, which is probably the result of a disturbed binding of the heme in the apo-protein or a reduced access of the substrate to the active site of the enzyme or protein.

Abstract
(17)O NMR spectroscopy of oxo ligand of oxo metalloporphyrin can be considered as an excellent means to derive information about structure, electronic state, and reactivity of the metal bound oxo ligand. To show the utility of (17)O NMR spectroscopy of oxo ligand of oxo metalloporphyrin, (17)O NMR spectra of oxo ligands of dioxo ruthenium(VI), oxo chromium(IV), and oxo titanium(IV) porphyrins are measured. For all oxo metalloporphyrins, well-resolved (17)O NMR signals are detected in far high frequency region. The (17)O NMR signal of the metal bound oxo ligand shifts high frequency in order of Ru(VI)<Ti(IV)<Cr(IV), thus the (17)O NMR chemical shift does not directly correlate with the oxo-transfer reactivity, Ti(IV)<Cr(IV)<Ru(VI). On the other hand, the (17)O NMR shift of oxo ligand correlates with the bond strength of metal-oxo bond. This suggests that the (17)O NMR signal of metal bound oxo ligand is a sensitive probe to study the nature of metal-oxo bond in oxo metalloporphyrin. The effect of the electron-withdrawing meso-substituent on the (17)O NMR shift of the oxo ligand is also investigated. With increase in the electron-withdrawing effect of the meso-substituent, the (17)O NMR signal of the oxo ligand of oxo chromium(IV) porphyrin shifts high frequency while that of dioxo ruthenium(VI) porphyrin hardly change resonance position. The changes in metal-oxo bonds induced by the electron-withdrawing meso-substituent are discussed on the basis of the (17)O NMR shifts, the strengths of the metal-oxo bonds, and the oxo-transfer reaction rates.

Abstract
The active species, Compound I, of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) has been investigated by quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical (QM/MM) calculations using 10 different QM regions. In accord with experimental data, the lowest doublet and quartet states are found to be virtually degenerate, with two unpaired electrons on the FeO moiety and one localized on the porphyrin in an a(2u)-dominant orbital with a minor, but nonnegligible, a(1u) component. The proximal ligand appears to be imidazole rather than imidazolate. The hydrogen-bonding network around the FeO moiety (i.e., Arg38 and His42) has significant influence on the axial bonds and the spin density distribution in the FeO moiety. Including this network in the QM region was found to be essential for reproducing the experimental Mössbauer parameters. The protein environment shapes most of the subtle features of Compound I of HRP.

Abstract
A short distance migrating cationic peroxidase from Korean radish seeds (Raphanus sativus) was detected. Cationic peroxidase Cs was purified to apparent homogeneity and characterized. The molecular mass of the purified cationic peroxidase Cs was estimated to be about 44 kDa on SDS-PAGE. After reconstitution of apoperoxidase Cs with protohemin, the absorption spectra revealed a new peak in the Soret region around 400 nm, which is typical in a classical type III peroxidase family. The optimum pH of peroxidase activity for o-dianisidine oxidation was observed at pH 7.0. Kinetic studies revealed that the reconstituted cationic peroxidase Cs has Km values of 1.18 mM and of 1.27 mM for o-dianisidine and H2O2, respectively. The cationic peroxidase Cs showed the peroxidase activities for native substrates, such as coumaric acid, ferulic acid, and scopoletin. This result suggested that cationic peroxidase Cs plays an important role in plant cell wall formation during seed germination.

Abstract
Hemoproteins are powerful oxidative catalysts. However, despite the diversity of functions known to be susceptible to oxidation by these catalysts, it is not known whether they can oxidize carboxylic acids to carboxylic radicals. We report here that incubation of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) at acidic pH with H(2)O(2) in acetate buffer results in rapid modification of the heme group and loss of catalytic activity. Mass spectrometry and NMR indicate that an acetoxy group is covalently bound to the delta-meso-carbon in the modified heme. A heme with a hydroxyl group on the 8-methyl is also formed as a minor product. These reactions do not occur if protein-free heme and H(2)O(2) are co-incubated in acetate buffer, if the HRP reaction is carried out at pH 7, in the absence of H(2)O(2), or if citrate rather than acetate buffer is used. A similar heme modification is observed in incubations with n-caproic and phenylacetic acids. A mechanism involving oxidation of the carboxyl group to a carboxylic radical followed by addition to the delta-meso-position is proposed. This demonstration of the oxidation of a carboxylic acid solidifies the proposal that a carboxylic radical mediates the normal covalent attachment of the heme to the protein in the mammalian peroxidases and CYP4 family of P450 enzymes. The hemoprotein-mediated oxidation of carboxylic acids, ubiquitous natural constituents, may play other roles in biology.

Abstract
Sperm whale myoglobin, an oxygen storage hemoprotein, was successfully reconstituted with the iron porphycene having two propionates, 2,7-diethyl-3,6,12,17-tetramethyl-13,16-bis(carboxyethyl)porphycenatoiron. The physicochemical properties and ligand bindings of the reconstituted myoglobin were investigated. The ferric reconstituted myoglobin shows the remarkable stability against acid denaturation and only a low-spin characteristic in its EPR spectrum. The Fe(III)/Fe(II) redox potential (-190 mV vs NHE) determined by the spectroelectrochemical measurements was much lower than that of the wild-type. These results can be attributed to the strong coordination of His93 to the porphycene iron, which is induced by the nature of the porphycene ring symmetry. The O2 affinity of the ferrous reconstituted myoglobin is 2600-fold higher than that of the wild-type, mainly due to the decrease in the O2 dissociation rate, whereas the CO affinity is not so significantly enhanced. As a result, the O2 affinity of the reconstituted myoglobin exceeds its CO affinity (M' = K(CO)/K(O2) < 1). The ligand binding studies on H64A mutants support the fact that the slow O2 dissociation of the reconstituted myoglobin is primarily caused by the stabilization of the Fe-O2 sigma-bonding. The IR spectra for the carbon monoxide (CO) complex of the reconstituted myoglobin suggest several structural and/or electrostatic conformations of the Fe-C-O bond, but this is not directly correlated with the CO dissociation rate. The high O2 affinity and the unique characteristics of the myoglobin with the iron porphycene indicate that reconstitution with a synthesized heme is a useful method not only to understand the physiological function of myoglobin but also to create a tailor-made function on the protein.

Abstract
To modulate the physiological function of a hemoprotein, most approaches have been demonstrated by site-directed mutagenesis. Replacement of the native heme with an artificial prosthetic group is another way to modify a hemoprotein. However, an alternate method, mutation or heme reconstitution, does not always demonstrate sufficient improvement compared with the native heme enzyme. In the present study, to convert a simple oxygen storage hemoprotein, myoglobin, into an active peroxidase, we applied both methods at the same time. The native heme of myoglobin was replaced with a chemically modified heme 2 having two aromatic rings at the heme-propionate termini. The constructed myoglobins were examined for 2-methoxyphenol (guaiacol) oxidation in the presence of H2O2. Compared with native myoglobin, rMb(H64D.2) showed a 430-fold higher kcat/Km value, which is significantly higher than that of cytochrome c peroxidase and only 3-fold less than that of horseradish peroxidase. In addition, myoglobin-catalyzed degradation of bisphenol A was examined by HPLC analysis. The rMb(H64D.2) showed drastic acceleration (>35-fold) of bisphenol A degradation compared with the native myoglobin. In this system, a highly oxidized heme reactive species is smoothly generated and a substrate is effectively bound in the heme pocket, while native myoglobin only reversibly binds dioxygen. The present results indicate that the combination of a modified-heme reconstitution and an amino acid mutation should offer interesting perspectives toward developing a useful biomolecule catalyst from a hemoprotein.

Abstract
Myoglobin will be a good scaffold for engineering a function into proteins. To modulate the physiological function of myoglobin, almost all approaches have been demonstrated by site-directed mutagenesis, however, there are few studies which show a significant improvement in the function. In contrast, we focused on the replacement of heme in the protein with an artificial prosthetic group. Recently, we prepared a novel myoglobin reconstituted with an iron porphycene as a structural isomer of mesoheme. The bluish colored reconstituted myoglobin is relatively stable and the deoxymyoglobin reversibly binds ligands. Interestingly, the O2 affinity of the reconstituted myoglobin, 1.1 x 109 M-1, is a significant 1,400-fold higher than that of the native myoglobin. Furthermore, the unfavorable autoxidation kinetics show 7-fold decrease in rate for the reconstituted myoglobin relative to the native myoglobin, indicating the stable oxy-form against autoxidation. The net results come from the slow dissociation of the O2 ligand in the reconstituted myoglobin, koff = 0.11 s-1, because of the formation of strong hydrogen bond between His64 and negatively charged dioxygen. The present study indicates that the replacement of native heme with an artificially created prosthetic group will give us a unique function into a hemoprotein.

Abstract
Heme oxygenase catalyzes the regiospecific oxidative degradation of iron protoporphyrin IX (heme) to biliverdin, CO and Fe, utilizing molecular oxygen and electrons donated from the NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase. The catalytic conversion of heme proceeds through two known heme derivatives, alpha-hydroxyheme and verdoheme. In order to assess the requirement of reducing equivalents in the second stage of heme degradation, from alpha-hydroxyheme to verdoheme, we have prepared the alpha-hydroxyheme complex with rat heme oxygenase isoform-1 and examined its reactivity with molecular oxygen in the absence of added electrons. Upon reaction with oxygen, the majority of the alpha-hydroxyheme in heme oxygenase is altered to a species which exhibits an optical absorption spectrum with a broad Soret band, along with the minority which is converted to verdoheme. The major product species, which is electron paramagnetic resonace-silent, can be recovered to the original alpha-hydroxyheme by addition of sodium dithionite. We have also found that oxidation of the alpha-hydroxyheme-heme oxygenase complex by ferricyanide or iridium(IV) chloride yields a species which exhibits an optical absorption spectrum and reactivity similar to those of the main product of the oxygen reaction. We infer that the oxygen reaction with the ferric alpha-hydroxyheme-heme oxygenase complex forms a ferric-porphyrin cation radical. We conclude that in the absence of reducing agents, the oxygen molecule functions mainly as an oxidant for the porphyrin ring and has no role in the oxygenation of alpha-hydroxyheme. This result corroborates our previous conclusion that the catalytic conversion of alpha-hydroxyheme to verdoheme by heme oxygenase requires one reducing equivalent along with molecular oxygen.

Abstract
The reaction of reduced NO synthase (NOS) with molecular oxygen was studied at -30 degreesC. In the absence of substrate, the complex formed between ferrous NOS and O2 was sufficiently long lived for a precise spectroscopic characterization. This complex displayed similar spectral characteristics as the oxyferrous complex of cytochrome P450 (lambda max = 416.5 nm). It then decomposed to the ferric state. The oxidation of the flavin components was much slower and could be observed only at temperatures higher than -20 degreesC. In the presence of substrate (L-arginine), another, 12-nm blue-shifted, intermediate spectrum was formed. The breakdown of the latter species resulted in the production of Nomega-hydroxy-L-arginine in a stoichiometry of maximally 52% per NOS heme. This product formation took place also in the absence of the reductase domain of NOS. Both formation of the blue-shifted intermediate and of Nomega-hydroxy-L-arginine required the presence of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4). We propose that the blue-shifted intermediate is the result of reductive activation of the oxygenated complex, and the electron is provided by BH4. These observations suggest that the reduction of the oxyferroheme complex may be the main function of BH4 in NOS catalysis.

Abstract
This study shows the ESR spectra of oxoiron(IV) porphyrin pi-cation radicals of 1-8 in dichloromethane-methanol (5:1) mixture. We reported in a previous paper that oxoiron(IV) porphyrin pi-cation radicals of 1-4 are in an a(1u) radical state while those of 5-8 are in an a(2u) radical. The ESR spectra (g( perpendicular)(eff) approximately 3.1 and g( parallel)(eff) approximately 2.0) for the a(1u) radical complexes, 1-4, appear quite different from those reported previously for the oxoiron(IV) porphyrin pi-cation radical of 5 (g(y) = 4.5, g(x) = 3.6, and g(z) = 1.99). The unique ESR spectra of the a(1u) radical complexes rather resemble those of compound I from Micrococcus lysodeikticus catalase (CAT) and ascorbate peroxidase (ASP). This is the first examples to mimic the ESR spectra of compound I in the enzymes. From spectral analysis based on a spin Hamiltonian containing an exchange interaction, the ESR spectra of 1-4 can be explained as a moderate ferromagnetic state (J/D approximately 0.3) between ferryl S = 1 and the porphyrin pi-cation radical S' = (1)/(2). The magnitudes of zero-field splitting (D) for ferryl iron and isotropic J value, estimated from the temperature-dependence of the half-saturation power of the ESR signals, are approximately 28 and approximately +8 cm(-1), respectively. A change in the electronegativity of the beta-pyrrole substituent hardly changes the ESR spectral feature while that of the meso-substituent slightly does owing to the change in the E/D value. On the basis of the present ESR results, we propose the a(1u) radical state for compound I of CAT and ASP.

Abstract
The apo-enzymes of porphobilinogen oxygenase and horseradish peroxidase were reconstituted with hemin IX, deuterohemin IX, 2,4-diacetyldeuterohemin IX, 2-vinyl-4-deuterohemin IX and hemin I. The apoproteins did not reconstitute with the dimethyl or diethyl esters of hemin IX. The native enzymes and the synthetic hemoproteins showed similar oxygenase activities toward porphobilinogen in the presence of dithionite and oxygen. They also showed peroxidase activity in the presence of H2O2, which was affected by the side-chain substitution pattern of the hemes. Oxygenase activities, however, were not affected by the heme structure. Iron chelators completely inhibited the oxygenase, but not the peroxidase activities. The EPR spectra of the native and synthetic porphobilinogen oxygenase showed that dithionite reduction produced a rapid disappearance of the high-spin heme-iron signal at g = 6.0. It reappeared 1 min later but the enzyme retained its catalytic activity. The changes in the EPR spectra could be correlated with the biphasic kinetics of the oxygenase reaction which was very fast during the first minute and then decreased to a half-value rate. The oxygenase reaction was inhibited by addition of superoxide dismutase during the fast rate phase, but not during the slower phase. These results could be explained by the formation of a superoxide anion during the first minute of the oxygenase reaction, after which a protein-stabilized radical (g = 2.0) is generated (very likely a tyrosyl radical). The latter then oxidizes the substrate porphobilinogen and facilitates its reaction with O2 to give oxopyrrolenines.

Abstract
The fast-moving anionic peroxidase isoenzyme variant PRXa was purified from leaves of petunia (Petunia hybrida). Over 1300-fold purification was achieved by subjecting extracellular extracts to two sequential acetone precipitations and resuspending the pellets at pH 5.0 and pH 8.0, respectively, followed by gel filtration and chromatofocusing. The purified enzyme had an absorbance ratio (A405 nm/A280 nm) of 3.6, a molecular mass of about 37 kDa and a pI of 3.8. Three molecular forms with slightly different molecular masses were separated by concanavalin-A--Sepharose affinity chromatography, indicating that these three forms differ in their carbohydrate moieties. The absorption spectrum of PRXa had maxima at 496 and 636 nm and a Soret band at 405 nm. Spectra of compounds I and IV were obtained by titrating a batch of PRXa stored for several months at -20 degrees C with H2O2. The addition of 1 mol H2O2/mol freshly purified PRXa caused the formation of compound II, indicating that freshly isolated PRXa contains a bound hydrogen donor which is lost upon storage. Compound III was obtained from both preparations in the presence of excess H2O2. The pH optimum of PRXa for the reaction with H2O2 and guaiacol was 5.0 and its specific activity 61 mkat/g protein. Among various aromatic compounds, coniferyl alcohol was polymerized by PRXa to presumed lignin-like material. The extracellular localization and high affinity of PRXa for the cinnamic acid derivatives suggest that this isoenzyme functions in the polymerization or cross-linking of lignin in the plant cell wall.

Abstract
Sperm whale myoglobin was reconstituted with etioheme and the stoichiometric complex formation was confirmed. The proton NMR spectrum of the deoxy myoglobin exhibits an NH signal from the proximal histidine at 78.6 ppm, indicating heme incorporation into the heme pocket to form the Fe-N(His-F8) bond. The appearance of a single set of the heme-methyl NMR signals shows that etioheme without acid side-chains specifically interacts with the surrounding globin. The visible spectral data suggest retention of a normal iron coordination structure. The functional and NMR spectral properties of etioheme myoglobin are similar to those of mesoheme myoglobin, reflecting the absence of the electron-withdrawing heme vinyl groups.

Abstract
Spectrophotometric titration of meso-tetra(n-propyl)hemin with sperm-whale apomyoglobin revealed their 1:1 complex formation. The purified reconstituted metmyoglobin bound with an equal molar amount of CN- and the second CN- ligation was not evidenced, suggesting that the hemin is not loosely attached to the globin surface, but incorporated into the heme pocket. The hyperfine-shifted proton NMR spectrum of the deoxy myoglobin revealed the proximal imidazole NH resonance at 85.1 ppm to indicate the formation of the Fe-N(His-F8) bond. The eight pyrrole protons of the hemin of myoglobin in the absence of external ligand were observed as a single peak at -16 ppm. This indicates the electronic symmetry of the hemin and the low-spin configuration of the heme iron. The pyrrole-proton NMR patterns of the cyanide and deoxy myoglobins were found to be remarkably temperature-dependent, which was consistently explained in terms of the free rotation of the prosthetic group. The NMR results suggest that introduction of meso-tetra(n-propyl)hemin totally disrupts the highly stereospecific heme-globin contacts, making the prosthetic group mobile in the heme cavity.

Abstract
The structures of the enzyme-substrate compounds of peroxidases and catalase determined by X-ray absorption spectroscopy are presented. The valence state of the iron in Compounds I and II is determined from the edge to be higher than Fe+3. A short Fe-Ne (proximal histidine) distance is observed in all forms except Compound II, forcing the Fe-Np average distance to be long, a result which differentiates the peroxidases from the oxygen transport hemoproteins and plays a pivotal role in the mechanism. A correlation is shown between the ratio of peaks in the low k (ligand field indicator ratio) region, the Fe-Np (heme pyrrole nitrogen) average distance, and the magnetic susceptibility, which provides a sensitive indicator of spin state. The mechanism of H2O2 reduction is shown by analysis of the structural changes observed in the intermediates. Possible relationship of these compounds to that of the peroxidatic form of cytochrome oxidase is suggested by these results.

Abstract
The routine clinical analysis of the porphyrin precursors of heme requires an internal standard to determine the efficiency of the analytical procedure used. 2-Vinyl-4-hydroxymethyldeuteroporphyrin IX has been prepared as an internal standard. Its application to porphyrin analysis has been demonstrated using high-performance liquid chromatographic resolution of the uro- to protoporphyrins in normal and porphyric urine.

Abstract
Proton NMR spectra of a model of low-spin cyanide complexes of ferric hemoproteins indicate that two broad single-protein resonances from the axial imidazole can be resolved outside the diamagnetic spectral region. Upon deprotonation of the imidazole in the model, the upfield resonance shifts dramatically to higher field, suggesting that its position may reflect the degree of hydrogen bonding or proton donation of the imidazole. Met-cyano myoglobin reveals a pair of such broad peaks in the regions expected for an essentially neutral axial imidazole. In the cyano complexes of horseradish peroxidase and cytochrome c peroxidase, a pair of single-proton resonances are located which are assigned to the same imidazole protons on the basis of their linewidth and shift changes upon altering the heme substituents. The upfiled proton, however, is found at much higher field than in metMbCN. The upfield bias of this resonance is taken as evidence for appreciable imidazolate character for the axial ligand in these heme peroxidases.
