Tarantula hemocyanin shows phenoloxidase activity.
An enzyme generally catalyzes one well defined reaction with high specificity and efficiency. We report here in contrast that the copper protein hemocyanin of the tarantula Eurypelma californicum exhibits two different functions. These occur at the same active site. While hemocyanin usually is an oxygen carrier, its function can be transformed totally to monophenoloxidase and o-diphenoloxidase ...
متن کاملCyclooxygense-1 inhibition delays hypersensitivity to nerve injury
Despite the important role of both cyclooxygenase (COX) isoforms (i.e. COX-1 and COX-2) in maintenance of hypersensitivity following peripheral nerve injury, their role in the development of neuropathic pain is not clear. The present study was undertaken to determine the effect of COX inhibitors to address the potential role of COX isozymes in the development of neuropathic pain in rats after c...

متن کاملSDS-induced phenoloxidase activity of Helix aspersa maxima hemocyanin
Oxygen-transporting protein of the hemolimph of snails Helix aspersa maxima (HaH) was converted from being an oxygen carrier to a form which exhibited phenoloxidase activity by incubation with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). On treatment with 1.73 mM SDS, for 3 min, significant increase of catalytic efficiency of hemocyanin towards substrate catechol (kcat/Km = 34.56 mM.min -1 versus kcat/Km = 0....
متن کاملPhenoloxidase activity in mycelia carrying modifier mutations that affect sporocarp development in Schizophyllum commune.
Phenoloxidase activity was studied in mycelia carrying mutations that affect sporocarp formation. The results suggest that phenoloxidase activity may be essential to, but is not sufficient for, the fruiting response in Schizophyllum.
