The effects of some heavy metals Co(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), and Ag(I) on carbonic anhydrase (CA) activity from rainbow trout (RT) muscle were investigated. Moreover, the effects of these metals on the expression of heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) gene in muscle tissue were examined by real-time quantitative PCR (RT-PCR) in muscle tissue aft er exposure to the metals at the end of 6, 12, 24, and 48 h. CA was purified with a specific activity of 2300 EU mg-1, a yield of 19%, and 1080-fold. The molecular weights (Mw) of subunit and native enzyme were approximately 30 and 31 kDa, respectively. Optimum pH, stable pH, optimum temperature, activation energy (Eα), activation enthalpy (ΔH), and Q10 (the difference in activity of enzyme caused by the increment of 10 oC) value were determined. Apparent Michaelis constant (Km), maximum reaction rate (Vmax), and turnover rate of the enzyme (Kcat) values were 1.29 mM, 0.17 μmol min-1, and 28.8 s-1, respectively. The catalytic efficiency (Kcat/Km) was 22.3. The heavy metals decreased in vitro CA activity. Inhibition mechanisms of the metal ions were noncompetitive, except for the Co(II) ion, which was competitive. The expression of the Hsp70 gene was increased in the presence of the metal ions. The expression level at the end of 48 h was the highest for all of the metals. Consequently, the in vitro inhibition rank order was determined as Co(II) > Zn(II) > Cu(II) > Ag(I). Interestingly, Ag(I) was the most effective metal ion on Hsp70 gene expression.

Many environmental and health problems have become a consequence of contamination of soil and water by toxic heavy metals and organic pollutants in the present age of technology. Heavy metals play vital roles in enzyme activities and other metabolic events with their bioaccumulative and nonbiodegradable properties among aquatic pollutants. Metal toxicity causes irregular metallothioneins protein synthesis, renal damage, and disruption of bone structure in humans and wildlife. In this study, we investigated in vitro effects of some metals on chemical-targeted carbonic anhydrase (CA) enzyme from rainbow trout kidney. The enzyme was purified with a specific activity of 17,285 EU × mg-1 and 31.7% yield and approximately 1800-fold using simple affinity purification method. Molecular weights of the subunit and native enzyme were estimated as 28.7 kDa and 26.9 kDa via sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and Sephadex-G 200 column, respectively. Other kinetic properties of the enzyme were determined. Apparent Km, Vmax and kcat values were 0.40 mM, 0.097 μmol min-1 and 15.2 s-1 for p-nitrophenylacetate substrate, respectively. Inhibitory effects of cobalt, zinc, copper, cadmium and silver on CA activity were determined using the esterase method under in vitro conditions. IC50 and Ki values were calculated for metals. Ki values for Co2+, Zn2+, Cu2+, Cd2+ and Ag+ were 0.035, 1.2, 34.8, 103 and 257 from Lineweaver-Burk graphs, respectively. Consequently, in vitro inhibition rank order was determined as Co2+ > Zn2+ > Cu 2+ > Cd2+ > Ag+. The potential inhibitor for CA was found as Co2+ from these results.
