Abstract：
:The binding of formate ion, a substrate for the peroxidatic reaction of catalase, has been investigated by magnetic resonance techniques. Comparative studies of formate binding to ferric myoglobin have also been performed. The nuclear magnetic relaxation (NMR) rate of formate and water protons is enhanced by the presence of ferric horse liver catalase. The enhancement is not changed significantly by the addition of cyanide, indicating that water and formate are still bound in the presence of cyanide. Formate proton to heme iron distances determined by magnetic resonance techniques indicate that formate does not directly bind to the heme iron of catalase or myoglobin but to the globin, and NMR relaxation occurs as a result of outersphere mechanisms. Evidence that water forms an innersphere complex with the iron atom of the catalase heme is presented. In similar experiments with ferric myoglobin, the addition of cyanide caused a large decrease in the enhancement of the proton relaxation rate of both formate and water, indicating the displacement of water and formate from the heme and the vicinity of the heme, respectively. Broad, high-spin, ferric ion electron paramagnetic resonance absorptions of catalase and myoglobin at room temperature obtained in the presence and absence of formate show that formate does not alter appreciably the heme environment of catalase or myoglobin or the spin state of the heme iron. Studies on the binding of formate to catalase as monitored by changes in the heme absorption spectrum in the visible region show one-to-one stoichiometry with heme concentration. However, the small changes observed in the visible region of the optical spectrum on addition of formate ion are attributed to a secondary effect of formate on the heme environment, rather than direct binding of formate to the heme moiety.
