Direct electrochemistry of porcine purple acid phosphatase (uteroferrin).
Cyclic voltammetry of the non-heme diiron enzyme porcine purple acid phosphatase (uteroferrin, Uf) has been reported for the first time. Totally reversible one-electron oxidation responses (FeIII-FeII --> FeII-FeIII) are seen both in the absence and in the presence of weak competitive inhibitors phosphate and arsenate, and dissociation constants of these oxoanion complexes formed with uteroferr...
متن کاملTransfer of iron from uteroferrin (purple acid phosphatase) to transferrin related to acid phosphatase activity.
There is continuing controversy as to whether iron can be exchanged from the purple phosphatase, uteroferrin (Uf), to fetal transferrin (Tf) and whether this process might be of physiological relevance during pregnancy in the pig. Here, iron transfer from Uf to apoTf at pH 7.1 was followed by measuring the loss of acid phosphatase activity from native Uf as a function of incubation conditions a...
متن کاملReactivity of M(II) metal-substituted derivatives of pig purple acid phosphatase (uteroferrin) with phosphate.
The Fe(II) of the binuclear Fe(II)Fe(III) active site of pig purple acid phosphatase (uteroferrin) has been replaced in turn by five M(II) ions (Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II)). An uptake of 1 equiv of M(II) is observed in all cases except that of Cu(II), when a second more loosely bound Cu(II) is removed by treatment with edta. The products have been characterized by different anal...
متن کاملAntibodies to porcine uteroferrin used in measurement of human tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase.
The immunological similarity between human tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.2) and porcine uteroferrin previously reported for the isoenzyme from spleens of patients with leukemic reticuloendotheliosis (Ketcham et al., J Biol Chem 1985;260:5768-76) has been confirmed for partly purified acid phosphatase found in the spleen of a patient with Gaucher's disease, and for the correspond...
متن کاملDirect Electrochemistry of Polyphenol Oxidase
The electrochemistry of banana tissues on a carbon paste electrode modified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) is presented. Cyclic voltammetry is applied to investigate the direct electrochemistry of banana tissues i.e. a source of polyphenol oxidase (PPO). A redox couple with an anodic and counterpart cathodic peak is obtained. The influence of various parameters such as pH,...
