[Modeling of linoleyl hydroxamic acid influence on lipoxygenases in vitro]

5-Lipoxygenase (5-LO) (1.13.11.12) demonstrates its activity in membrane-associated state. A system in vitro with increasing quantity of mixed micelle of nonionic detergent Lubrol PX and substrate--linoleic acid (LA) was used for understanding of 5-LO catalytic activity mechanism, which depends on the membrane environment. Physical parameters of micelles with molar ratio LA-Lubrol PX = 0.3:1 and micelles with 5-LO inhibitor--linoleyl hydroxamic acid (LHA), LA and Lubrol PX (0.03:0.3:1) were characterized by gel-filtration method on Sephadex G-200. It was determined, that Stock's radii were 4.83-5.79 nm for micelles with total LA--50-2000 microM and average molecular mass--177 000-212 000 Da. The presence of 10 microM LHA has no influence on physical parameters of the system. Influence of LHA on kinetic parameters of LA oxidation reaction catalized by potato tubers 5-LO in characterized mixed micelle system was also studied. Substrate dependences curves of 5-LO LA oxidation steady-state rates under conditions of the mixed micelle with ratio LA-lubrol PX = 0.3:1, LHA-LA-Lubrol PX = 0.03:0.3:1 and LHA-LA-Lubrol PX = 0.12:0.3:1 were typical of the substrate inhibition. The presence of inhibitor had no effect on the number of additional substrate molecules--LA which contact with enzyme-substrate complex and decreased V(max) essentially. To predict further inhibitor transformation in the cell the influence of 13-hydroperoxy- and 13-hydroxy LHA on potato tubers 5-LO and porcine leucocyte 12-LO was investigated. It was established that LHA oxidized forms displayed as no less effective inhibitors of the analyzed enzymes; 13-hydroperoxy LHA efficiency increased by an order (IC50 was 0.7 microM) for 12-LO. The possibility of 5-LO to oxidize inhibitor LHA under 50 microM phosphatidic acid at pH 5.0 was demonstrated.
