摘要
We present evidence of two peroxidases in maize (Zea mays L.) mitochondria. One of these uses guaiacol and the other uses cytochrome c as the electron donor. Treatments of fresh mitochondria with protease(s) indicate that ascorbate and glutathione peroxidases are likely bound to the mitochondria as cytosolic contaminants, whereas guaiacol and cytochrome peroxidases are localized within the mitochondria. These two mitochondrial peroxidases are distinct from contaminant peroxidases and mitochondrial electron transport enzymes. Cytochrome peroxidase is present within the mitochondrial membranes, whereas guaiacol peroxidase is loosely bound to the mitochondrial envelope. Unlike other cellular guaiacol peroxidases, mitochondrial guaiacol peroxidase is not glycosylated. Digestion of lysed mitochondria with trypsin activated mitochondrial guaiacol peroxidase but inhibited cytochrome peroxidase. Isoelectric focusing gel analysis indicated guaiacol peroxidase as a major isozyme (isoelectric point 6.8) that is also activated by trypsin. No change in the mobility of guaiacol peroxidase due to trypsin treatment on native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was observed. Although both peroxidases are induced by chilling acclimation treatments (14 degrees C), only cytochrome peroxidase is also induced by chilling (4 degrees C). Because chilling induces oxidative stress in the maize seedlings and the mitochondria are a target for oxidative stress injury, we suggest that mitochondrial peroxidases play a role similar to catalase in protecting mitochondria from oxidative damage.
