The reaction of human myeloperoxidase with its product, hypochlorous acid was investigated using both rapid-scan spectrophotometry and the stopped-flow technique. In the reaction of myeloperoxidase with hypochlorous acid a primary compound is found with properties similar to that of compound I and which is converted into compound II. The primary reaction is strongly pH-dependent. At pH 7.2 the reactions is too fast to be measured but at higher pH values it is possible to determine the apparent second-order rate constant. Its value decreases to about 2 x 10(7) M-1.s-1 at pH 8.3 and to 2.3 (+/- 0.4) x 10(6) M-1.s-1 at pH 9.2, respectively. The dissociation constant for the formation of the primary compound is 25.7 (+/- 15.3) mu-M at pH 9.2 and about 2.5-mu-M at pH 8.3. The apparent second-order rate constant for the formation of compound II is hardly affected by pH and varies between 2 to 5 x 10(4) M-1.s-1 at pH 10.2 and pH 8.3, respectively.Reaction of myeloperoxidase with hypochlorous acid also resulted in irreversible partial bleaching of the chromophore. Chloride, which is a substrate of the enzyme not only protects myeloperoxidase against bleaching by hypochlorous acid but also competitively inhibits the binding of hypochlorous acid to myeloperoxidase, a process which also has been observed in in the reaction with hydrogen peroxide. It is concluded that hypochlorous acid binds at the heme iron to form compound I.
