On the Mechanism of Hemoglobin‐Haptoglobin Complex Formation

Abstract: In order to elucidate the mechanism of complex formation between human haptoglobin, Hp II, and bovine hemoglobin, Hb, measurements of the peroxidase activity and histidine determinations, as well as spectrophtometric and optical rotatroy dispersion titration experiments were performed. Following the raaction by slowly mixing the constituents of the complex in small portinos, the geometry of the complex turns out to depend on the sequence of mixing of the reactants. Adding Hb to Hp, a final complex Hb2→ Hp is f… Show more

“…Increased haptoglobin concentration within each sample will produce higher protein–protein (hemoglobin–haptoglobin) complexes, thus limiting the catalytically active species of the modified plate assay, producing reduced CL intensities. Previous studies verified the irreversible protein–protein binding with high specificity and marked changes in heme reactivity [34,35]. Indeed, eCL factor values were reduced significantly (t-test, p < 0.05) upon deterioration of milk quality for all particle sizes (e.g., values of 30.6 ± 0.8, 21.4 ± 1.9, and 14.6 ± 2.5 for milk-free assay, healthy, and clinical mastitis, respectively, using 25 nm cross-linked GNPs).…”

“…It is reasonable to note that these two drugs are usually used under pathologic condition caused by infectious diseases. Also it is resulted that haptoglobin is an acute phase protein [15,16]. Furthermore, in vitro studies show that two antibiotics (especially ampicillin) may help Hp-Hb complex to remove hydrogen peroxide from serum.…”

“…It is this easy loss of sialic acid that may well be responsible for the widely different estimates (2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14) of the number of sialic acid residues per mole of H p 1-1 (28,29).…”
