Munro A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Chemistry, University of Durham, September 1999. ABSTRACT Spectrophotometric (including stopped-flow) techniques were used to examine the kinetics of NO-group transfer reactions (transnitrosation) between S-nitrosothiols (RSNO) and a wide range of sulfur/nitrogen nucleophiles in aqueous solution. A metal-ion chelator was added in all experiments to prevent RSNO decay and NO liberation catalysed by copper ions. In most cases reaction was envisaged as rate- determining attack of the nucleophile at the nitrogen atom of the -SNO moiety, and hence S-nitrosothiols essentially acted as electrophilic nitrosating agents. Sulfite, thiosulfate, thiourea, thiocyanate and thiomethoxide, were sufficiently nucleophilic to induce nitrosothiol decomposition at physiological pH. Reaction with sulfide (pH > 7.4) afforded the orange-yellow anion, SSNO, and embodies a potential quantitative test for RSNOs. S-Nitrosopenicillamine was reactive enough to allow a thorough investigation into its reaction at basic pH with primary, secondary (creating carcinogenic N-nitrosamines), and tertiary amines, as well as ambident (e.g. thiomorpholine) and alpha nucleophiles (e.g. azide ion). Parallels could be made with analogous studies using other nitroso compounds such as MNTS. The generality of the reaction of a S-nitrosothiol with a large excess of the corresponding or a different thiol was also assessed. Ammonia and not nitric oxide was confirmed as the primary nitrogenous product of this highly complicated process. Mechanistic details of the copper(I) catalysed decomposition of some novel S- nitroso derivatives (e.g. a synthesised S-nitroso-l-thiosugar) are reported. The two- stage degradation pathway involved an initial Cu+ promoted component that halted at incomplete conversion, and was accompanied by a large thermal reaction. An explanation of this unique pattern has been offered in terms of the generation of a disulfide-Cu2+ complex, in which copper is/is not accessible to reduction. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am indebted to my supervisor, Professor D. Lyn H. Williams for his guidance and friendship throughout the course of my studies. The regular discussions about the turbulent state of Welsh sport will be greatly missed. Many thanks go to the exceptional computer magician (and story teller), Mr. Colin 'Ceeg' Greenhalgh, and I appreciate the time and effort spent by Dr. Andy Dicks in proof reading this thesis. It is impossible to name everyone who has made my time in Durham so memorable, but a few people deserve a particular mention. Firstly, I wish to express my gratitude to my lab colleagues and friends; Ian, Gibbo, Coupie, Lynsey, Kathryn, Tony, Darren, Seve, Dave Moss, Parkin, Geordie Dave, Jeanette, Anna and E. I must also thank the Jas Pal lads, Bedders, Pricey, Alex, Phil, Fraggle, and Stella, for making the social life as entertaining as the work life.

Malfunction of SMCs can lead to hypertension, asthma, and erectile dysfunction, among other disorders. For comparison of the five DNIC derivatives, the following protocols were examined: (a) the Griess assay to detect nitrite (derived from NO conversion) in the absence and presence of SMCs; (b) the 3- (4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-(4- sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium (MTS) assay for cell viability; (c) an immunotoxicity assay to establish if DNICs stimulate immune response; and (d) a fluorometric assay to detect intracellular NO from treatment with DNICs. Dimeric Roussin’s red 9 μ ester (RRE)-type {Fe(NO)2} complexes containing phenylthiolate bridges, [( -SPh)Fe(NO)2]2 or SPhRRE, were found to ff deliver NO with the lowest e ect on cell toxicity (i.e., highest IC50). In contrast, the RRE-DNIC with the biocompatible μ β thioglucose moiety, [( -SGlu)Fe(NO)2]2 (SGlu = 1-thio- -D-glucose tetraacetate) or SGluRRE, delivered a higher concentration of NO to the cytosol of SMCs with a 10-fold decrease in IC50.

  • NADPH Diaphorase Detects S-Nitrosylated Proteins in Aldehyde-Treated Biological Tissues
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN NADPH diaphorase detects S‑nitrosylated proteins in aldehyde‑treated biological tissues James M. Seckler1, Jinshan Shen2, Tristan H. J. Lewis3, Mohammed A. Abdulameer1, Khalequz Zaman1, Lisa A. Palmer4, James N. Bates5, Michael W. Jenkins1,6 & Stephen J. Lewis1,7* NADPH diaphorase is used as a histochemical marker of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in aldehyde‑ treated tissues. It is thought that the catalytic activity of NOS promotes NADPH‑dependent reduction of nitro‑blue tetrazolium (NBT) to diformazan. However, it has been argued that a proteinaceous factor other than NOS is responsible for producing diformazan in aldehyde‑treated tissues. We propose this is a NO‑containing factor such as an S‑nitrosothiol and/or a dinitrosyl‑iron (II) cysteine complex or nitrosated proteins including NOS. We now report that (1) S‑nitrosothiols covalently modify both NBT and TNBT, but only change the reduction potential of NBT after modifcation, (2) addition of S‑nitrosothiols or β‑ or α‑NADPH to solutions of NBT did not elicit diformazan, (3) addition of S‑nitrosothiols to solutions of NBT plus β‑ or α‑NADPH elicited rapid formation of diformazan in the absence or presence of paraformaldehyde, (4) addition of S‑nitrosothiols to solutions of NBT plus β‑ or α‑NADP did not produce diformazan, (5) S‑nitrosothiols did not promote NADPH‑dependent reduction of tetra‑nitro‑blue tetrazolium (TNBT) in which all four phenolic rings are nitrated, (6) cytoplasmic vesicles in vascular endothelial cells known to stain for NADPH diaphorase were rich in S‑nitrosothiols, and (7) procedures that accelerate decomposition of S‑nitrosothiols, markedly reduced NADPH diaphorase staining in tissue sections subsequently subjected to paraformaldehyde fxation.

The dinitrosyl iron complexes, III [Fe(NO)2(Ar-nacnac)] (1) and (Bu4N)[Fe(NO)2(Ar-nacnac)] (2) react with [Fe (TPP)Cl] (TPP = tetraphenylporphine dianion) to generate [FeII(TPP)(NO)] and the corresponding mononitrosyl iron complexes. The factors governing NO-transfer with DNICs 1 and 2 are evaluated, together with the chemistry of the related mononitrosyl iron complex, [Fe(NO)Br(Ar-nacnac)], 4. The synthesis and properties of the related cobalt dinitrosyl [Co(NO)2(Ar-nacnac)], 3, is also discussed for comparison to DNICs 1 and 2.

    ARTICLE Received 11 Nov 2013 | Accepted 18 Mar 2014 | Published 2 May 2014 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms4684 Redox active iron nitrosyl units in proton reduction electrocatalysis Chung-Hung Hsieh1, Shengda Ding1,O¨ zlen F. Erdem2, Danielle J. Crouthers1, Tianbiao Liu3, Charles C.L. McCrory4, Wolfgang Lubitz2, Codrina V. Popescu5, Joseph H. Reibenspies1, Michael B. Hall1 & Marcetta Y. Darensbourg1 Base metal, molecular catalysts for the fundamental process of conversion of protons and electrons to dihydrogen, remain a substantial synthetic goal related to a sustainable energy future. Here we report a diiron complex with bridging thiolates in the butterfly shape of the 2Fe2S core of the [FeFe]-hydrogenase active site but with nitrosyl rather than þ carbonyl or cyanide ligands. This binuclear [(NO)Fe(N2S2)Fe(NO)2] complex maintains structural integrity in two redox levels; it consists of a (N2S2)Fe(NO) complex (N2S2 ¼ N,N0-bis(2-mercaptoethyl)-1,4-diazacycloheptane) that serves as redox active metallo- dithiolato bidentate ligand to a redox active dinitrosyl iron unit, Fe(NO)2. Experimental and theoretical methods demonstrate the accommodation of redox levels in both components of the complex, each involving electronically versatile nitrosyl ligands. An interplay of orbital mixing between the Fe(NO) and Fe(NO)2 sites and within the iron nitrosyl bonds in each moiety is revealed, accounting for the interactions that facilitate electron uptake, storage and proton reduction. 1 Department of Chemistry, Texas A&M University, College Station, Texas 77843, USA. 2 Max Planck Institute for Chemical Energy Conversion, Stiftstrasse 34-36, 45470 Muelheim a.d.

It has been shown that the concentrations of nitrite anions and GS-NO correlate exactly with the Received: October 03, 2018; Accepted: November 05, concentration of Fe(NO)2 fragments of B-DNIC, being equivalent to the 2018; Published: November 12, 2018 concentration of 50% of nitrosyl ligands in B-DNIC. The rest 50% of nitrosyl ligands are released from B-DNIC in the form of neutral molecules of NO. The data obtained are interpreted in terms of the d7 electronic configuration of iron in B-DNIC in the framework of our hypothetical mechanism of Fe(NO)2 formation in B-DNIC during interaction of bivalent iron with neutral molecules of NO and thiols.

L. Peterson Plasmodium-Induced Nitrosative Stress in Anopheles stephensi: The Cost of Host Defense By Tina Marie Loane Peterson Shirley Luckhart, Advisor Department of Biochemistry ABSTRACT Both vertebrates and anopheline mosquitoes inhibit Plasmodium spp. (malaria parasite) development via induction of nitric oxide (•NO) synthase. Expression of Anopheles stephensi •NO synthase (AsNOS) is induced in the midgut epithelium beginning at 6 h following a Plasmodium berghei-infected blood meal. •NO reacts readily with other biocompounds forming a variety of reactive nitrogen intermediates (RNIs) that may impose a nitrosative stress. These RNIs are proposed to be responsible for the AsNOS-dependent inhibition of Plasmodium development. In my studies, I identified several RNIs that are induced in the blood-filled midgut • - - in response to Plasmodium infection. Stable end products of NO (NO3 and NO2 ), measured using a modified Griess assay, are elevated in infected midguts at 24 h post- blood meal (pBM). Further studies using chemical reduction-chemiluminescence with Hg displacement showed that infected midguts contained elevated levels of potentially toxic higher oxides of nitrogen (NOx), but S-nitrosothiol (SNO) and nitrite levels did not differ between infected and uninfected midguts at 12.5 and 24 h pBM.
