Resonance Raman (RR) spectra obtained at three excitation wavelengths are reported for various ferric, ferrous, and ferryl derivatives of bovine lactoperoxidase. The RR spectra of the ferric derivatives show the full complement of the vinyl stretching and scissor modes indicating that the two vinyls in the protoporphyrin IX prosthetic group are present in unmodified forms. The cysteine thiol complex exhibits a RR spectrum identical to that of the native enzyme, an observation which strongly suggests a nonheme binding site for the thiol substrates. The different ferrous complexes of lactoperoxidase which result from heme reduction at slightly alkaline and acidic pH gave identical low-frequency RR spectra. Differences are observed, however, in the high-frequency region. Reduction in the presence of cyanide, however, yields two time-resolved complexes. Changes in the ligand field during the conversion to the final form of the cyanoferrous complex are proposed based on the changes observed in the low-frequency vibrational spectrum. Comparisons are made between the low-frequency RR spectra of the limiting form of the cyanoferrous and the nitric oxide lactoperoxidase complexes. The similarity between the RR spectra of these two complexes in the 150-500 cm-1 region supports the assignment of structures for these complexes where the six-coordinate heme iron is displaced from the heme plane and away from the proximal histidine ligand. |
