Paula Yurkanis Bruice, Susan Grase Wilson, and Thomas C. Bruice* abstract: Yeast alcohol dehydrogenase (YADH) and rabbit muscle glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH), enzymes that contain sulfhydryl groups essential to their cat-alytic activity, have been found to be rapidly inactivated by small concentrations of several arene oxides with Mis of~ 10~ 4 M. Theeffectiveness of the arene oxides as inhibitors decreases in the order: 4-carbo-tm-butoxybenzene oxide> 4-carbox-ybenzene oxide> phenanthrene 9, 10-oxide. The half-life of enzymatic activity decreases with increasing arene oxide concentration and increasing pH of the incubationmixture in the pH range 7.0-9.5. Prior incubation of the enzymes with a saturating concentration of substrate decreases the rate of inactivation by the arene oxides, andincubation of GPDH with arene oxide results in increased absorption of the Racker band at 360 nm for~ 5 h followed by a decrease inabsorption. These observations suggest that alkylation of the active-site sulfhydryl groups has occurred. Titration with 5, 5'-dithiobis (2-nitro-benzoic acid) shows that the arene oxides show specificity toward the active-site cysteineresidues. The greater effectiveness of 4-carbo-iert-butoxybenzene oxide as an inhibitor of YADH and GPDH activity is as would be predicted from its comparatively large nucleophilic susceptibility index. The ß values obtained from Br^ nsted plots for the reaction of thiolate anions with the arene oxides suggest that the site of nucleophilic attack on 4-carbo-tcrt-butoxybenzene oxide is different from that of other investigated arene oxides. Although lysozyme is inhibited by certain diphenyl ethers and epoxides structurally related to the substrate, phenanthrene 9, 10-oxide has no effect on the activity of the enzyme. embrane-bound cytochrome P-450 monoxygenases convert aromatic hydrocarbons to arene oxides (Tomaszewski et al., 1974) which serve as intermediates in aromatic com-pound detoxification (Oesch, 1973; Jeffrey and Jerina, 1975) as well as in the biosynthesis of metabolically important phenols (Daly et al., 1972). Certain arene oxides have been shown to be causative agents of carcinogenesis (Grover et al., 1971; Levin et al., 1976), mutagenesis (Ames et al.. 1972). and ne-crosis (Brodie et al., 1971) as a result of their being bound covalently to cellular macromolecules. At present, it is not known whether the critical site of attachment is protein or nucleic acid. Several investigators (Grover and Sims, 1970 and 1972; Jeffrey et al., 1976a, b; Blobstein et al., 1975, 1976) have established that K-region arene oxides bind covalently to DN A and RNA with the purine bases, in particular guanine, ex-hibiting the greatest reactivity toward the arene oxides. To date, however, there is essentially no data available on the in-teraction of arene oxides with proteins. It has been shown (Bruice et al., 1976a, b) that in aqueous solution arene oxides rearrange to phenols (path A) and are attacked by nucleophiles to give primarily trans-addition products (path B). Thiolate anions exhibit considerably greater 0+ h+, z-> ZA< C path A
