H2O2 | DAHP synthase enzymes are inactivated by H2O2 in vitro and in vivo, H2O2 displaces the iron atom from the enzyme, only the Fe2+-metalloform of the enzyme can be inactivated by hydrogen peroxide or superoxide | Escherichia coli | |
additional information | isozyme AroG is not inhibited by L-Phe. In peroxide-stressed cells, the enzyme accumulates as an apoprotein, potentially with an oxidized cysteine residue. In superoxide-stressed cells, the enzyme acquires a nonactivating zinc ion in its active site, an apparent consequence of the repeated ejection of iron. Manganese supplementation protects the activity in both cases, which matches the ability of manganese to metallate the enzyme and to provide substantial oxidant-resistant activity. The damage to DAHP synthase can be completely restored in vivo, while in vitro, restoration is only partly, overview. Escherichia coli attempts to compensate for diminished DAHP synthase activity by increasing expression | Escherichia coli | |
superoxide | displaces the iron atom from the enzyme, only the Fe2+-metalloform of the enzyme can be inactivated by hydrogen peroxide or superoxide. Superoxide stress promotes the mismetallation of DAHP synthase | Escherichia coli |
