Incubation of human hemoglobin with nitrite and hydrogen peroxide was found to induce autonitration and nitration of another protein (bovine serum albumin), as demonstrated by detection of nitrotyrosine residues in Western blots of separated membrane proteins. Inhibition of nitration by conversion of hemoglobin into the cyanmet form demonstrates that nitration is due to the pseudoperoxidase activity of hemoglobin. Incubation of whole erythrocytes with nitrite and hydrogen peroxide induces nitration of erythrocyte membrane proteins, much stronger when cellular catalase was inhibited with azide. These results suggest that hemoglobin and other hemoproteins may contribute to the tyrosine nitration in vivo.
