Estradiol 17 beta-dehydrogenase of human placenta was rapidly inactivated by 2,3-butanedione under u.v. light, and no protection against the inactivation was observed in the presence of sodium azide. Under ordinary laboratory illumination, the inactivation was biphasically progressed in time-dependent and concentration-dependent manners, while a partial protection from the inactivation was indicated by sodium azide. These results suggest that the inactivation mechanism of the dehydrogenase by 2,3-butanedione under laboratory illumination is different from that under u.v. light. Therefore, the inactivation under laboratory illumination proceeded by a reaction with excited singlet molecular oxygen (1 delta g or 1 sigma +g states), and that under u.v. light was caused by a reaction of substrate with triplet sensitizer. In the presence of NADP+, the inactivation of the enzyme by 2,3-butanedione was markedly reduced. The maximum protection by NADP+ was about 80% of the initial enzyme activity. Amino acid analysis of the enzyme treated with 2,3-butanedione under laboratory illumination showed that the modified enzyme contained considerably less of the following amino acids than the native enzyme: histidine, arginine, threonine, methionine, tyrosine and leucine. In addition, other dicarbonyl reagents, 1,4-dibromo-2,3-butanedione, 1-phenyl-1,2-propanedione, phenylglyoxal, 16-oxoestrone, 1,2-cyclohexanedione, 2,4-pentanedione and glyoxal were found to decrease the dehydrogenase activity in various degree.
