Effect of strophanthin G on peroxidase oxidation kinetics of slowly oxidizable peroxidase substrates.
Steady-state kinetics of thioproperazine, triftazine, aminazine, and o-dianisidine oxidation with hydrogen peroxide catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase were studied in the presence of strophanthin G. Values of the inhibition and activation constants (Ki, Ka) were determined in the pH range 5.0-7.5. At acidic pH, strophanthin G activated peroxidase during the oxidation of thioproperazine by the uncompetitive mechanism, and when triftazine was oxidized, the inhibition was noncompetitive. At pH > 6.0, the patterns of activation and inhibition changed to mixed-type during the peroxidase oxidation of thioproperazine and triftazine and to competitive inhibition of peroxidase with strophanthin G during the oxidation of aminazine. These effects are suggested to be due to an ionizable enzyme group of pK approximately 6.0. Strophanthin G inhibited free-radical oxidation of o-dianisidine via binding to the enzyme-substrate complex, preventing the generation of a stable semi-oxidized product of o-dianisidine, and thus inhibiting the enzyme by the anticompetitive mechanism. Mechanisms of oxidation of slowly and rapidly oxidizable substrates of peroxidase in the presence of strophanthin G are suggested.
