Mechanisms of generation of oxygen radicals and reductive mobilization of ferritin iron by lipoamide dehydrogenase.
The oxidase reaction of lipoamide dehydrogenase with NADH generates superoxide radicals and hydrogen peroxide under aerobic conditions. ESR spin trapping using 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide (DMPO) was applied to characterize the oxygen radical species generated by lipoamide dehydrogenase and the mechanism of their generation. During the oxidase reaction of lipoamide dehydrogenase, DMPO-OOH and DMPO-OH signals were observed. The DMPO-OOH signal disappeared on addition of superoxide dismutase. These results demonstrate that the DMPO-OOH adduct was produced from the superoxide radical generated by lipoamide dehydrogenase. In the presence of dimethyl sulfoxide, a DMPO-CH3 signal appeared at the expense of the DMPO-OH signal, indicating that the DMPO-OH adduct was produced directly from the hydroxyl radical rather than by decomposition of the DMPO-OOH adduct. The DMPO-OH signal decreased on addition of superoxide dismutase, catalase, or diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid, indicating that the hydroxyl radical was generated via the metal-catalyzed Haber-Weiss reaction from the superoxide radical and hydrogen peroxide. Addition of ferritin to the NADH-lipoamide dehydrogenase system resulted in a decrease of the DMPO-OOH signal, indicating that the superoxide radical interacted with ferritin iron.
