Mechanism of the Affinity-Enhancing Effect of Isatin on Human Ferrochelatase and Adrenodoxin Reductase Complex Formation: Implication for Protein Interactome Regulation.

ABSTRACT: Isatin (indole-2, 3-dione) is a non-peptide endogenous bioregulator exhibiting a wide spectrum of biological activity, realized in the cell via interactions with numerous isatin-binding proteins, their complexes, and (sub) interactomes. There is increasing evidence that isatin may be involved in the regulation of complex formations by modulating the affinity of the interacting protein partners. Recently, using Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) analysis, we have found that isatin in a concentration dependent manner increased interaction between two human mitochondrial proteins, ferrochelatase (FECH), and adrenodoxine reductase (ADR). In this study, we have investigated the affinity-enhancing effect of isatin on the FECH/ADR interaction. The SPR analysis has shown that FECH forms not only homo
