Spectral characteristics and catalytic properties of thyroid peroxidase-H2O2 compounds in the iodination and coupling reactions

A Virion et al. Arch Biochem Biophys. 1985 Oct.

Abstract

Hog thyroid peroxidase (TPO) was highly purified in order to study the spectral properties and catalytic specificities of its H2O2 compounds in iodothyronine biosynthesis. Purified TPO exhibited a Soret spectrum with an absorption maximum at 410 nm and had an A410/A280 value of 0.55. Protein iodination was only catalyzed under conditions which allowed formation of the transient TPO compound I (Fe(IV)-pi o+). On addition of an equimolar amount of H2O2, TPO formed a stable compound with an absorption maximum at 417 nm. This compound efficiently catalyzed the coupling reaction, but was unable to iodinate proteins. It catalyzed the formation of 1 mol iodothyronines/mol TPO, and therefore retained two oxidizing equivalents per molecule. It is proposed that this compound constitutes a second form of compound I whose structure might be Fe(IV)-Ro, analogous to that of cytochrome c peroxidase compound I. In the presence of an excess of H2O2, it formed TPO-compound III with an absorption maximum at 420 nm. TPO-compound III catalyzed neither the iodination nor the coupling reaction.
