Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Free heme, the protein-unbound form of heme, participates in a number of physiological events as both a regulatory molecule and a prooxidant species. We previously developed a method for quantifying free heme using fluorescently labeled rat heme oxygenase-1 as a heme sensor. However, quantification of free heme in rat liver microsomal fraction was disturbed by non-specific adhesion of free heme to biomolecules in the sample. To resolve the issue, we investigated the effects of several surfactants on the heme quantification. We also prepared six fluorescent protein-fused rHO-1s and characterized their heme-sensing properties. Among them, three fluorescent protein fusions linked to the N terminus of rHO-1 showed a stoichiometric fluorescent response during titration with heme. Further characterization for intracellular heme detection was performed.
