A Simple Proposal That Can Explain the Inactivity of Metal-Substituted Superoxide Dismutases
Abstract
We propose that the apparent catalytic inactivity of Mn- and Fe-substituted superoxide dismutases (SODs) reflects E °s that are either lower (Fe-sub-(Mn)SOD) or higher (Mn-sub-(Fe)SOD) than those of native Fe- or Mn-SODs. In support, we show that the E ° of Fe-sub-(Mn)SOD (Fe substituted into Mn-SOD protein) is −240 mV vs NHE, almost 0.5 V lower than our E ° of 220 mV for Fe-SOD. The E ° of Fe-sub-(Mn)SOD is lower than that of O 2 /O 2 • - and therefore is sufficient to explain Fe-sub-(Mn)SOD's inactivity. Indeed, Fe-sub-(Mn)SOD is shown to be unable to oxidize O 2 • - . Alternate causes of inactivity are ruled out by our demonstration that Fe-sub-(Mn)SOD retains the ability to reduce O 2 • - . Thus, the active site remains active with respect to substrate binding and proton and electron transfer. Finally, we show that Fe-sub-(Mn)SOD's inactivity with respect to O 2 • - oxidation cannot be solely due to competitive inhibition by OH - . Thus, our proposal provides a simple chemical basis for the observed catalytic inactivity of metal-exchanged Mn- or Fe-SODs and suggests that these strongly homologous enzymes may provide important insights into mechanisms of redox midpoint potential tuning in proteins.

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.
