Steady-state kinetics of autoxidation of NAD(P)H initiated by hydroperoxyl radical, the acid form of superoxide anion radical.
Rates of autoxidation of NAD(P)H initiated by hydroperoxyl radical, the acid form of superoxide anion radical which was generated by xanthine/xanthine oxidase, followed a typical autoxidation kinetic equation. Second-order rate constants for the reactions of NADPH and NADH with hydroperoxyl radical were found to be 9.82 +/- 0.13 x 10(4) M-1s-1 and 9.26 +/- 0.58 x 10(4) M-1s-1 at 25 degrees C, respectively. Rates of the reactions between NAD(P)H and superoxide to give degraded products other than NAD(P)+ were also investigated.
