Properties of chemically modified Ni(II)-Fe(II) hybrid hemoglobins. Ni(II) protoporphyrin IX as a model for a permanent deoxy-heme.

Abstract:

:Chemical modifications, NES-Cys(beta 93), des-Arg(alpha 141), and both modifications on the same molecule, were made to Ni-Fe hybrid hemoglobins, and their effect on individual subunits was investigated by measuring oxygen equilibrium curves, the Fe(II)-N epsilon (His F8) stretching Raman lines, and light-absorption spectra. The oxygen equilibrium properties indicated that modified Ni-Fe hybrid hemoglobins remain good models for the corresponding deoxy ferrous hemoglobins, although K1, the dissociation equilibrium constant for the first oxygen to bind to hemoglobin, was decreased by the chemical modifications. Resonance Raman spectra of deoxy alpha 2 (Fe) beta 2 (Ni) and light-absorption spectra of deoxy alpha 2 (Ni) beta 2 (Fe), revealed that the state of alpha hemes in both hybrid hemoglobins underwent a transition from a deoxy-like state to an oxy-like state caused by these chemical modifications when K1 was about 3 mm Hg (1 mm Hg approximately 133.3 Pa). On the other hand, the state of beta hemes in hybrid hemoglobins was little affected, when K1 was larger than 1 mm Hg. Modified alpha 2 (Fe) beta 2 (Ni) gave a Hill coefficient greater than unity with a maximum of 1.4 when K1 was about 4 mm Hg. The two-state model predicts that the K1 value at the maximum Hill coefficient should be much larger than this value. For oxygen binding to unmodified alpha 2 (Ni) beta 2 (Fe), oxygen equilibrium data suggested no structural change, while the spectral data showed a structural change around Ni(II) protoporphyrin IX in the alpha subunits. A similar situation was encountered with modified alpha 2 (Ni) beta 2 (Fe), although K1 was decreased as a result of the structural changes induced by the modifications.
