Structure and Catalysis of Fe(III) and Cu(II) Microperoxidase-11 Interacting with the Positively Charged Interfaces of Lipids.

ABSTRACT: Numerous applications have been described for microperoxidases (MPs) such as in photoreceptors, sensing, drugs, and hydrogen evolution. The last application was obtained by replacing Fe(III), the native central metal, by cobalt ion and inspired part of the present study. Here, the Fe(III) of MP-11 was replaced by Cu(II) that is also a stable redox state in aerated medium, and the structure and activity of both MPs were modulated by the interaction with the positively charged interfaces of lipids. Comparative spectroscopic characterization of Fe(III) and Cu(II)MP-11 in the studied media demonstrated the presence of high and low spin species with axial distortion. The association of the Fe(III)MP-11 with CTAB and Cu(II)MP-11 with DODAB affected the colloidal stability of the surfactants that was recovered by heating. This result is consistent with hydrophobic interactions of MPs with DODAB vesicles and CTAB micelles. The hydrophobic interactions decreased the heme accessibility to substrates and the Fe(III) MP-11catalytic efficiency. Cu(II)MP-11 challenged by peroxides exhibited a cyclic Cu(II)/Cu(I) interconversion mechanism that is suggestive of a mimetic Cu/ZnSOD (superoxide dismutase) activity against peroxides. Hydrogen peroxide-activated Cu(II)MP-11 converted Amplex Red® to dihydroresofurin. This study opens more possibilities for technological applications of MPs.

Project description:Lacking an effective mechanism to safely and consistently enhance macromolecular uptake across the intestinal epithelium, prospects for successful development of oral therapeutic peptide drugs remain unlikely. We previously addressed this challenge by identifying an endogenous mechanism that controls intestinal paracellular permeability that can be activated by a peptide, termed PIP 640, which can increase cellular levels of phosphorylated myosin light chain at position S19 (MLC-pS19). Apical application in vitro or luminal application in vivo was shown to increase macromolecular solute transport within minutes that recovered completely within a few hours after removal. We now examine the nature of PIP 640-mediated permeability changes. Confluent Caco-2 cell monolayers treated with PIP 640 enhanced apical-to-basolateral (AB) transport of 4-kDa, but not 10-kDa, dextran. Expression and/or cellular distribution changes of tight junction (TJ) proteins were restricted to increased claudin-2 over a time course that correlated with an apparent shift in its distribution from the nucleus to the membrane fraction of the cell. PIP 640-mediated epithelial changes were distinct from the combined actions of the pro-inflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-?) and interferon gamma (IFN-?). While TNF-?/IFN-? treatment also increased MLC-pS19 levels, these cytokines enhanced AB transport for 70-kDa dextran and decreased occludin expression at TJs. Claudin-2-dependent changes induced by PIP 640 resulted in an AB transport bias for positively-charged macromolecules demonstrated in vitro using charge variants of 4-kDa dextrans and by comparing transport of salmon calcitonin to exenatide. Comparable outcomes of increased TJ localization of claudin-2 and enhanced transport of these therapeutic peptides that biased toward cationic characteristics was demonstrated in vivo following after intra-luminal injection into rat jejunum. Together, these data have shown a potential mechanism for PIP 640 to enhance paracellular permeability of solutes in the size range of small therapeutic peptides that is biased toward positively-charged solutes.
