Catalytic Zinc Complexes for Phosphate Diester Hydrolysis**
Creating efficient artificial catalysts that can compete with biocatalysis has been an enduring challenge which has yet to be met. Reported herein is the synthesis and characterization of a series of zinc complexes designed to catalyze the hydrolysis of phosphate diesters. By introducing a hydrated aldehyde into the ligand we achieve turnover for DNA-like substrates which, combined with ligand ...
متن کاملSimulating the Catalytic Effect of a Designed Mononuclear Zinc Metalloenzyme that Catalyzes the Hydrolysis of Phosphate Triesters
One of the greatest challenges in biotechnology and in biochemistry is the ability to design efficient enzymes. In fact, such an ability would be one of the most convincing manifestations of a full understanding of the origin of enzyme catalysis. Despite some progress on this front, most of the advances have been made by placing the reacting fragments in the proper places rather than by optimiz...
متن کاملStructural insights into the catalytic mechanism of phosphate ester hydrolysis by dUTPase.
dUTPase is essential to keep uracil out of DNA. Crystal structures of substrate (dUTP and alpha,beta-imino-dUTP) and product complexes of wild type and mutant dUTPases were determined to reveal how an enzyme responsible for DNA integrity functions. A kinetic analysis of wild type and mutant dUTPases was performed to obtain relevant mechanistic information in solution. Substrate hydrolysis is sh...
متن کاملCatalytic oxidations by vanadium complexes
Vanadium haloperoxidases catalyse the oxidation of halides leading to halogenation of substrates or, in the absence of suitable substrates, to oxidation of hydrogen peroxide into singlet oxygen and water. Furthermore, V-haloperoxidases are capable to give enantioselective sulfoxidation under the appropriate conditions. The most interesting model compounds that have been synthesised and studied ...
متن کاملThe Phosphate Ion and Hydrolysis by Pancreatic
where pPO, is the expression introduced by Holt, La Mer and Chown (1925) to represent the concentration of the PO~"' ion, and n and K are constants. Certain results obtained by the writers on the effect of phosphates on the hydrolysis of esters by pancreatic lipase conformed to the equation put forward by Lyon. I t is found, however, that other data are not amenable to this mathematical treatme...
