项目摘要
From microorganisms to man, ferritin plays a central role in the
biological management of iron. Within the cell, iron is reversibly
stored in ferritin in the form of a hydrous ferric oxide mineral core
inside the protein. Ferritin consists of 24 subunits of two types, H
(heavy) and L (light) of apparent molecular weights 21,000 and 19,000
g/mole, respectively, assembled to form a shell of molecular weight c.a.
480,000 g/mol. The two subunits have been suggested to have different
roles in facilitating core formation in ferritin. A ferroxidase site
which catalyzes the oxidation of iron(II) by molecular oxygen has
recently been discovered on the H-subunit. The overall goal of the
proposed research is to elucidate the molecular mechanisms by which
ferritin acquires and releases iron with special attention paid to the
roles of the H and L subunits in these processes. The mechanisms will be
investigated through a combination of EPR, ENDOR, ESEEM and Mossbauer
spectroscopy, electrochemistry and kinetic studies of horse and sheep
spleen ferritins as well as recombinant H and L human liver ferritins and
site-directed mutants thereof. The various EPR observable iron and
radical species formed during the initial stages of iron deposition will
be characterized spectroscopically and kinetically and their locations
within the protein structure determined using mutant proteins and
proteins enriched in selected perdeutero amino acids. The role(s), if
any, of the observed radicals, in iron oxidation and/or reduction or in
oxidative damage to the protein will be examined. The kinetics of iron
oxidation and hydrolysis will be studied by oxygen electrode oximetry and
pH stat, respectively, and the rate laws for these processes determined.
The time sequence of formation of intermediate mononuclear and binuclear
iron and radical species will be established by rapid freeze-quench EPR
spectroscopy. The functions of H and L subunits in facilitating iron
oxidation and core nucleation will be probed by carrying out
spectroscopic and kinetic studies of intermediate species observed with
various site-directed mutants. The binding of biological reductants to
ferritin and the reversibility of the redox chemistry of the iron core
will be studied electrochemically. The extensive studies proposed should
lead to a detailed understanding of how ferritin functions as a
reversible iron storage protein and further our knowledge of the
chemistry and biochemistry of iron biomineralization processes in
general.
