An artificial peroxidase-like hemoprotein has been obtained by associating a monoclonal antibody, 13G10, and its iron(III)-alpha,alpha,alpha,beta-meso-tetrakis(ortho-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin [Fe(ToCPP)] hapten. In this antibody, about two-thirds of the porphyrin moiety is inserted in the binding site, its ortho-COOH substituents being recognized by amino-acids of the protein, and a carboxylic acid side chain of the protein acts as a general acid base catalyst in the heterolytic cleavage of the O-O bond of H2O2, but no amino-acid residue is acting as an axial ligand of the iron. We here show that the iron of 13G10-Fe(ToCPP) is able to bind, like that of free Fe(ToCPP), two small ligands such as CN-, but only one imidazole ligand, in contrast to to the iron(III) of Fe(ToCPP) that binds two. This phenomenon is general for a series of monosubstituted imidazoles, the 2- and 4-alkyl-substituted imidazoles being the best ligands, in agreement with the hydrophobic character of the antibody binding site. Complexes of antibody 13G10 with less hindered iron(III)-tetraarylporphyrins bearing only one [Fe(MoCPP)] or two meso-[ortho-carboxyphenyl] substituents [Fe(DoCPP)] also bind only one imidazole. Finally, peroxidase activity studies show that imidazole inhibits the peroxidase activity of 13G10-Fe(ToCPP) whereas it increases that of 13G10-Fe(DoCPP). This could be interpreted by the binding of the imidazole ligand on the iron atom which probably occurs in the case of 13G10-Fe(ToCPP) on the less hindered face of the porphyrin, close to the catalytic COOH residue, whereas in the case of 13G10-Fe(DoCPP) it can occur on the other face of the porphyrin. The 13G10-Fe(DoCPP)-imidazole complex thus constitutes a nice artificial peroxidase-like hemoprotein, with the axial imidazole ligand of the iron mimicking the proximal histidine of peroxidases and a COOH side chain of the antibody acting as a general acid-base catalyst like the distal histidine of peroxidases does.
