Here, we report the results of investigation of the reactions between cobalamins (Cbls) and hypothiocyanite (OSCN), a product of thiocyanate oxidation by hydrogen peroxide in the presence of lactoperoxidase. In the case of aquacobalamin, the product, the UV-vis spectrum of which differs from the UV-vis spectra of Cbl(III)-complexes with SCN, SO32-, OCN and CN anions, is formed and attributed to hypothiocyanitocobalamin. This complex reacts with selenomethionine at substantially lower rate than the free OSCN. Cyano- and methyl-Cbls are relatively stable in the presence of OSCN. Glutathionylcobalamin is transformed to hypothiocyanitocobalamin in the presence of OSCN excess via the oxidation of glutathionyl-ligand and subsequent binding of OSCN by Cbl(III).
