Reactivity and selectivity of Pt(trpy)Cl/sup +/ toward proteins are studied with cytochromes c from horse and tuna as examples. The new transition-metal reagent is specific for histidine residues at pH 5. The reaction, facile one-step displacement of the Cl/sup -/ ligand by imidazole, produces good yield. The binding sites, His 26 and His 33 in the horse protein and His 26 in the tuna protein, are identified by UV-vis spectrophotometry and by peptide-mapping experiments. Model complexes with imidazole, histidine, histidine derivatives, and histidine-containing peptides are prepared and characterized. The covalently attached Pt(trpy)/sup 2 +/ labels allow easy separation of the protein derivatives by cation-exchange chromatography. The labels do not perturb the conformation and reduction potential of cytochrome c, as shown by UV-vis spectrophotometry, cyclic voltammetry, differential-pulse voltammetry, EPR spectroscopy, and /sup 1/H NMR spectroscopy. The selectivity of Pt(trpy)Cl/sup +/ is entirely opposite from that of PtCl/sub 4//sup 2 -/ although both of them are platinum(II)-chloro complexes. Owing to an interplay between the steric and electronic effects of the terpyridyl ligand, the new reagent is unreactive toward methionine (a thio ether) and cystine (a disulfide), which are otherwise highly nucleophilic ligands, but very reactive toward imidazole, which is otherwise a relativelymore » weak ligand. Unusual and useful selectivity of preformed transition-metal complexes toward proteins evidently can be achieved by a judicious choice of ancillary ligands.« less
