| heal.abstract | Met-myoglobin is oxidized both by H2O2 and other hydroperoxides to a species with a higher iron valency state and the spectral characteristics of ferryl-myoglobin. Glutathione (GSH) reduces the latter species back to met-myoglobin with parallel oxidation to its disulfide (GSSG) but cannot reduce met-myoglobin to ferrous myoglobin. Under aerobic conditions, the GSH-mediated reduction of ferry-myoglobin is associated with O2 consumption and amounts of GSSG are formed far in excess over that of the peroxide added. Under anaerobic conditions, this ratio is close to unity. These results are interpreted in terms of a one-electron redox process involving the reduction of ferryl-myoglobin to met-myoglobin and the one-electron oxidation of GSH to its thiyl radical. Further reactions of thiyl radicals are influenced by the presence of oxygen which will be the determining factor in the ratio H2O2 added/GSSG formed. It is suggested that, when oxygen is limiting, myoglobin may serve as a protector of muscle cells against peroxides and other oxidants. | en |
