ABSTRACT
Mass spectrometry and UV-vis absorption results support a mechanism for NO donation by S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) to recombinant human brain calbindin D(28K) (rHCaBP) that requires the presence of trace copper, added as either Cu,Zn-superoxide dismutase (CuZnSOD) or CuSO(4). The extent of copper-catalyzed rHCaBP S-nitrosation depends on the ratio of protein to GSNO and on the reaction time, and NO-transfer is prevented when copper chelators are present. CuZnSOD is an efficient catalyst of rHCaBP S-nitrosation, and the mechanism of CuZnSOD-catalyzed S-nitrosation involves reduction of the active-site Cu(II) by a number of the five free thiols in rHCaBP, giving rise to thiyl radicals. The Cu(I)ZnSOD formed catalyzes the reductive cleavage of GSNO present in solution to give GSH and release NO. rHCaBP thiyl radicals react with NO to yield the S-nitrosoprotein. Cu(II)ZnSOD is also reduced by GSH in a concentration-dependent manner up to 5 mM but not at higher GSH concentrations. However, unlike the rHCaBP thiyl radicals, GS(*) radicals dimerize to GSSG faster than their reaction with NO. The data presented here provide a biologically relevant mechanism for protein S-nitrosation by small S-nitrosothiols. S-nitrosation is rapidly gaining recognition as a major form of protein posttranslational modification, and the efficient S-nitrosation of CaBP by CuZnSOD/GSNO is speculated to be of neurochemical importance given that CaBP and CuZnSOD are abundant in neurons.
