Lawrence F. Povirk abstract: The kinetics and stoichiometryof several reactions involving bleomycin, iron, DNA, oxygen, and sulfhydryls were examined in order to assess their possible role in degradation of DNA by bleomycin. Oxidation of Fe (II) in the presence of bleomycin resulted in an iron (III)-bleomycin complex, having an optical absorption spectrum with a broad shoulder at 320-400 nm, which was stable for several hours. If Fe (II) was allowed to oxidize before bleomycin addition, the complex did not form. The complex was reduced by dithiothreitol 5 times faster than unchelated Fe (III), and reduction of the complex was inhibited by high concentrations of DNA. However, stopped-flow studiesshowed that, when sufficient DNA was present to bind most of the iron (II)-bleomycin, its rate of oxidation by molecular oxygen was 60 times faster than that of unbound iron (II)-bleomycin. Under the same con-ditions, oxidation of each mole of DNA-bound iron (II)-lR. ecent studies of the degradation of DNA by bleomycin (Sausville et al., 1978a, b) strongly suggest that a critical step in the reaction is the oxidation of an Fe (II) ion which is chelated by a bleomycin molecule bound to DNA. Most of the final products of the reaction havebeen identified (Haidle et al., 1972; Sausville et al., 1978b; Takeshita et al., 1978), but theprecise sequence of events proceding and following Fe (II) oxidation remains speculative. Since both Fe (II)(Goto et al., 1970) and iron (II)-bleomycin (Sausville et al., 1976) oxidize rapidly at neutral pH, even in the absence of DNA, the kinetics of oxidation and reduction of iron and its complexes with bleomycin and DNA must be
