Damage to proteins by peroxidized lipids

Open access
Desai, I.D., Tappel, A.L.·1963·Journal of Lipid Research

Abstract

The purpose of this research was to determine the mechanism of damage to protein by the free radical intermediates formed during the peroxidation of lipids. The reaction system consisted of linolenic acid, cytochrome c, and oxygen. The addition reaction of peroxidizing linolenic acid with cytochrome c was measured using linolenic acid-C14. There was considerable damage to cytochrome c as measured by its decreased solubility. Paper chromatographic studies of the amino acids of the linolenic peroxy–cytochrome c product showed losses of amino acids that are labile to oxidation. Linkages between linolenic acid and cytochrome c were identified as either peroxy or ether by infrared spectra. Hydrolysis revealed that 70% of the linolenic acid was bound to cytochrome c through peroxy bonds, and the rest through ether or possibly carbon-to-carbon bonds. Measurements of thiobarbituric acid value and peroxide number substantiated the chemical nature of peroxidative damage to cytochrome c.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
