Abstract:
:The low-frequency FeCN vibrations of cyanoferric myeloperoxidase (MPO) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) have been measured by resonance Raman spectroscopy. The ordering of the frequencies of the predominantly FeC stretching and FeCN bending normal vibrational modes in the two peroxidases differs. These normal mode vibrations are identified by their wavenumber shifts upon isotopic substitution of the cyanide ligand. For MPO, the stretching mode nu 1 (361 cm-1) occurs at a lower frequency than the bending mode delta 2 (454 cm-1). For HRP, the order is reversed as nu 1 (456 cm-1) is at a higher frequency than delta 2 (404 cm-1). Normal coordinate analyses and model complexes have been used to address the origin of this behavior. The nu 1 stretching frequencies in cyanide complexes of iron porphyrin and iron chlorin model compounds are similar to one another and to that of HRP. Thus, the inverted order and altered frequencies of the nu 1 and delta 2 vibrations in MPO, relative to those in HRP and the model compounds, are not inherent to the proposed iron chlorin prosthetic group in MPO but, rather, are attributed to distinct distal environmental effects in the MPO active site. The normal coordinate analyses for MPO and HRP showed that the nu 1 and delta 2 vibrational frequencies are not pure; the potential energy distributions for these modes respond not only to the geometry but also to the force constants of the nu(FeC) and delta(FeCN) internal coordinates.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
