  2. Myoglobin is a globular protein responsible for reversible binding and transport of oxygen through the muscles of the body by use of an iron containing heme cofactor. The cobalt(II) analog of myoglobin can also reversibly bind molecular oxygen, forming 1:1 adducts with this ligand. Studies have shown that oxygen binding occurs at a comparable rate to that of the iron species, but there is a significant difference between their rates of oxygen dissociation. In this study, I explore the disparity in the rates of oxygen dissociation of the two complexes in their conversion from the oxygenated to the deoxygenated forms. There is expected to be a faster rate of dissociation for the cobalt analog due to weaker binding of the oxygen to the metal center.

  6. Method Na2S2O4 Oxymyoglobin was prepared by dissolving a measured amount in minimal buffer, and adding excess sodium dithionite. It was then passed through a G-25 Sephadex column for purification. Known concentrations of both the hydrosulfite solution and the diluted myoglobin species were mixed in a vial and immediately added to a cuvette, where the reaction was monitored kinetically at predetermined wavelengths.

  17. Interaction between the Metal Center and Oxygen Superoxide ion • Both the Cobalt and Iron metal centers have resonance forms which involve a superoxide ion. • Upon addition of the dithionite, numerous reactions may occur which include release of oxygen, reduction of the metal, release of superoxide and its reaction with two hydrogen ions to form hydrogen peroxide.

  19. The studies of the dissociation of oxygen from the myoglobin analogs utilizing sodium dithionite were unsuccessful for several reasons. The concentration of dithionite was not great enough for the reaction to be pseudo first order. The reaction occurs too fast at such concentrations. The lengthy reduction of the metal species by dithionite and the use of an open system lead to the production of numerous radicals and species in various oxidation states, resulting in complex kinetic behavior. The rate of dissociation of oxygen from the cobalt analog should have been on the order of 103 s- while that of the native species should have been about two orders of magnitude less, based on previous temperature jump relaxation analysis. The dissociation of superoxide prior to reduction of the metal species by hydrosulfite was observed, but only an approximate rate of dissociation could be determined due to the complex nature of the reaction. This experiment could be improved by using the stopped-flow apparatus at low temperatures. Also, in place of hydrosulfite, a ligand which binds more strongly to the myoglobin may be more appropriate in determination of the rate of oxygen dissociation. Conclusions
