Abstract:
:Heme oxygenase (HO) catalyses the degradation of heme to biliverdin, carbon monoxide (CO) and ferrous iron via three successive monooxygenase reactions, using electrons provided by NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR) and oxygen molecules. For cleavage of the oxaporphyrin ring of ferrous α-verdoheme, an intermediate in the HO reaction, involvement of a verdoheme π-neutral radical has been proposed. To explore this hypothetical mechanism, we performed electrochemical reduction of ferrous α-verdoheme-rat HO-1 complex under anaerobic conditions. Upon binding of CO, an O(2) surrogate, the midpoint potential for one-electron reduction of the oxaporphyrin ring of ferrous α-verdoheme was increased from -0.465 to -0.392 V vs the normal hydrogen electrode. Because the latter potential is close to that of the semiquinone/reduced redox couple of FAD in CPR, the one-electron reduction of the oxaporphyrin ring of CO-bound verdoheme complexed with HO-1 is considered to be a thermodynamically likely process. Indeed the one-electron reduced species, [Fe(II)(verdoheme•)], was observed spectroscopically in the presence of CO in both NADPH/wild-type and FMN-depleted CPR systems under anaerobic conditions. Under physiological conditions, therefore, it is possible that O(2) initially binds to the ferrous iron of α-verdoheme in its complex with HO-1 and an electron is subsequently transferred from CPR, probably via FAD, to the oxaporphyrin ring.
