Quantitation of heme oxygenase 1: Heme titration increases yield of purified protein

Abstract: Free heme binds to heme oxygenase as a prosthetic group and substrate in the conversion of heme to biliverdin, carbon monoxide, and free iron. Current methods for quantifying heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) involve reconstitution of the enzyme with heme, followed by a hydroxyapatite column to remove the excess heme. As a result of the hydroxyapatite chromatography, there are significant losses of purified protein. We have developed a method which allows accurate quantitation of HO-1 using a heme titration and eliminat… Show more

“…The full-length HO-1 expression system was kindly provided by Dr. Mahin Maines (University of Rochester), and mutated at position 254 as described previously (46). Both HO-1 and sHO-1 were purified in the apo- form and quantified using the heme titration method (47). In this manuscript, HO-1 refers to the R254K mutant containing the C-terminal membrane binding domain as described previously (46), whereas sHO-1 refers to the form lacking this C-terminal region.…”

“…, where I 0 is the concentration of added heme; ␣, the fraction of enzyme sites occupied by heme, is given by ␣ ϭ ⌬/⌬ max , where ⌬ is the optical change measured (27); in this plot, the slope is equal to the K d for heme binding, and the intercept (e 0 ) represents the concentration of heme-binding sites. Titrations were also performed in the presence of palmitic acid and several COX inhibitors.…”

“…Aliquots of a 200 M hematin solution in 20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.3, containing 40 mM KCl, 0.1% C 10 E 6 , and 2% DMSO were added to a quartz cuvette containing 200 l of 5 M apohuPGHS-2 in the same buffer solution without DMSO at room temperature (26,27). The increase in absorbance at 408 nm was plotted in a linear form using the equation…”

“…Aliquots of heme solutions in 20 mM Tris HCl, pH 8.3, containing 40 mM KCl, 0.02% C 10 E 6 , and 2% DMSO, were added to a quartz cuvette containing 200 µl of 5 M apo-huPGHS-1 in the same buffer solution without DMSO at room temperature ( 40,41 ). The increase in absorbance at 412 nm was transformed to a binding fraction and then plotted using Grapher TM 7 software in a linear form using the Scatchard equation in which the slope is equal to the Ϫ 1/ K d for heme binding.…”
