We are attempting to supply a new insight on interaction between Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase and H(2)O(2). We demonstrate that in vitro the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase, a non heme-protein, is able to disproportionate H(2)O(2) catalatically into dioxygen and water, as well as C(40) catalase. By polarography, we quantify O(2) production and by Raman spectroscopy H(2)O(2) consumption. A comparative analysis of kinetics parameters relative to O(2) production shows that for Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase the affinity of the catalytic site able to transform H(2)O(2) into O(2) is twice weaker than that for C(40) catalase. It also shows that the molar activity for O(2) production is 300-fold weaker for ATPase than for catalase. Inhibitors, pH and GSH studies highlight the differences between the heme- and nonheme-proteins. Indeed, for C(40), NaN(3) is strongly inhibiting, but much less for ATPase. The pH range for the catalatic activity of ATPase is wide (6.5 to 8.5), while it is not for C(40) catalase (optimum at pH 8). The Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase catalatic activity is reduced in presence of glutathione, while it is not the case with C(40) catalase.

D006861 Hydrogen Peroxide A strong oxidizing agent used in aqueous solution as a ripening agent, bleach, and topical anti-infective. It is relatively unstable and solutions deteriorate over time unless stabilized by the addition of acetanilide or similar organic materials.

D000254 Sodium-Potassium-Exchanging ATPase An enzyme that catalyzes the active transport system of sodium and potassium ions across the cell wall. Sodium and potassium ions are closely coupled with membrane ATPase which undergoes phosphorylation and dephosphorylation, thereby providing energy for transport of these ions against concentration gradients.
