Redox noninnocent ligands enhance the reactivity of the metal they complex, a strategy used by metalloenzymes and in catalysis. Herein, we report a series of copper complexes with the same ligand framework, but with a pendant nitrogen group that spans five ...

Description:

LC-MS/MS profiling reveals that the proteoforms of cytochrome c peroxidase (Ccp1) isolated from respiring yeast mitochondria are oxidized at numerous Met, Trp, and Tyr residues. In vitro oxidation of recombinant Ccp1 by H2O2 in the absence of its reducing substrate, ferrocytochrome c, gives rise to similar proteoforms, indicating uncoupling of Ccp1 oxidation and reduction in mitochondria. The oxidative modifications found in the Ccp1 proteoforms are consistent with radical transfer (hole hopping) from the heme along several chains of redox-active residues (Trp, Met, Tyr). These modifications delineate likely hole-hopping pathways to novel substrate-binding sites. Moreover, a decrease in recombinant Ccp1 oxidation by H2O2 in vitro in the presence of glutathione supports a protective role for hole hopping to this antioxidant. Isolation and characterization of extramitochondrial Ccp1 proteoforms reveals that hole hopping from the heme in these proteoforms results in selective oxidation of the proximal heme ligand (H175) and heme labilization. Previously, we demonstrated that this labilized heme is recruited for catalase maturation (Kathiresan, M.; Martins, D.; English, A. M. Respiration triggers heme transfer from cytochrome c peroxidase to catalase in yeast mitochondria. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 2014, 111, 17468-17473; DOI: 10.1073/pnas.1409692111 ). Following heme release, apoCcp1 exits mitochondria, yielding the extramitochondrial proteoforms that we characterize here. The targeting of Ccp1 for selective H175 oxidation may be linked to the phosphorylation status of Y153 close to the heme since pY153 is abundant in certain proteoforms. In sum, when insufficient electrons from ferrocytochrome c are available to Ccp1 in mitochondria, hole hopping from its heme expands its physiological functions. Specifically, we observe an unprecedented hole-hopping sequence for heme labilization and identify hole-hopping pathways from the heme to novel substrates and to glutathione at Ccp1's surface. Furthermore, our results underscore the power of proteoform profiling by LC-MS/MS in exploring the cellular roles of oxidoreductases.
