The electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra of the blue copper oxidase ceruloplasmin [ferroxidase, iron (II):oxygen oxidoreductase, EC 1.16.3.1] and of a derivative having the type I (blue) copper centers reversibly bleached are reported. The EPR spectrum of bleached ceruloplasmin has a seven-line superhyperfine structure in the g : formula: (see text) region that is attributed to the presence of three nitrogen-donor type 2 copper ligands. The EPR data suggest further that the type 2 copper in ceruloplasmin possesses a tetragonal coordination gometry. In the presence of varying amounts of fluoride, superhyperfine splitting patterns in the g : formula: (see text) region of both ceruloplasmin derivatives indicate that a maximum of two fluorides may be bound to the type 2 copper.
报道了蓝铜氧化酶铜蓝蛋白[铁氧化酶,铁(II):氧氧化还原酶,EC 1.16.3.1]及其具有可逆漂白的I型(蓝色)铜中心的衍生物的电子顺磁共振(EPR)光谱。漂白铜蓝蛋白的EPR光谱在g:公式:(见正文)区域具有七线超超精细结构,这归因于存在三个氮供体2型铜配体。EPR数据进一步表明,铜蓝蛋白中的2型铜具有四方配位几何结构。在存在不同量氟化物的情况下,两种铜蓝蛋白衍生物在g:公式:(见正文)区域的超超精细分裂模式表明,最多两个氟化物可能与2型铜结合。
